Is quantum mechanics real or complex? — •Shu-Di Yang — 322-6 Oroshi, Toki, Gifu 509-5202

It has been long debated whether quantum mechanics is real or complex. Local experiments have been carried out confirming the complex nature of quantum mechanics in the standard formalism. Nevertheless, recent theoretical work demonstrated that in a closed universe, quantum mechanics is real. We discuss the philosophical implications of whether quantum mechanics is real or complex.

Keywords: quantum mechanics; closed universe; Interpretations of quantum mechanics; entanglement
