The main fields to which hecontributed include various disciplines of pure and appliedmathematics, mathematical and theoretical physics, logic, theoreticalcomputer science, and computer architecture. Von Neumann was alsoactively involved in politics and science management and he had amajor impact on US government decisions during, and especially after,the Second World War. .There exist several popular books on his personality and variouscollections focusing on his achievements in mathematics, computerscience, and economy. Strangely enough, to date no detailed appraisalof his seminal contributions to the mathematical foundations ofquantum physics has appeared. Von Neumann‘s theory of measurement andhis critique of hidden variables became the touchstone of most debatesin the foundations of quantum mechanics. Today, his name also figuresmost prominently in the mathematically rigorous branches ofcontemporary quantum mechanics of large systems and quantum fieldtheory. And finally - as one of his last lectures, published inthis volume for the first time, shows - he considered therelation of qu | 出版日期 | Book 2001 | 关键词 | Rudolf Carnap; Theoretical physics; mathematical physics; philosophy of science; probability; quantum mec | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-017-2012-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-5651-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-017-2012-0Series ISSN 0929-6328 Series E-ISSN 2215-1818 | issn_series | 0929-6328 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2001 |
