Quantum Mechanics, Ontology, and Non-Reflexive Logics

Abstract

This is a general philosophical paper where I overview some of my ideas concerning the non-reflexive foundations of quantum mechanics. By NRFQM I mean an interpretation of QM that considers an involved on- tology of non-individuals as explained in the text. Thus, I do not endorse a purely instrumentalist view of QM, but believe that it speaks of something, and then I try to show that one of the plausible views of this ‘something’ is as entities devoided of identity conditions.
