- beecafe 5y agoNot exactly! This just applies to "local" hidden variables. See Bohmian mechanics for one which uses non-local hidden variables (i.e, not values at each spatial voxel but values per wavefunction, spread out over it) (from that description you can also imagine the problems this theory has in integrating with relativity).
- GoblinSlayer 5y agoNo hidden variables doesn't mean indeterminism, it only means no hidden variables.
