<p>Create biographical page for person listed in The Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists (web-verified; red-link batch 5)</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{Infobox scientist<br /> | name = Arkady Bolotin<br /> | fields = Physics, foundations of quantum mechanics<br /> | workplaces = Ben-Gurion University of the Negev<br /> | known_for = Computational approach to the quantum measurement problem<br /> }}<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Arkady Bolotin&#039;&#039;&#039; is a researcher at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev who works on the foundations of quantum mechanics. He is listed in &#039;&#039;[[The Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> ==Work==<br /> Bolotin argues that the quantum measurement problem may have a computational, rather than purely physical, character. In &quot;Limits of reductionism and the measurement problem&quot; (arXiv:1301.0002; &#039;&#039;Physics Essays&#039;&#039; 26, 350–357, 2013), he asks whether the difficulty of solving the Schrödinger equation for an arbitrarily large system reflects an intrinsic property of nature, and whether that difficulty could itself resolve the measurement problem.<br /> <br /> In related papers, including &quot;Computational Solution to Quantum Foundational Problems&quot; and &quot;The paradox of classical reasoning,&quot; he contends that requiring quantum linearity to apply at all physical scales would imply the existence of a generic algorithm able to solve the Schrödinger equation for any system in reasonable time, and he treats the apparent impossibility of such an algorithm as an argument against a strictly reductionist description of macroscopic systems. These positions run counter to the mainstream view that quantum mechanics applies universally in principle.<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [https://arxiv.org/abs/1301.0002 &quot;Limits of reductionism and the measurement problem&quot; (arXiv:1301.0002)]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Scientist|Bolotin Arkady]]<br /> [[Category:Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]</div>
