PARTICLES IN A QUANTUM ONTOLOGY OF PROPERTIES.

We propose a new quantum ontology, in which properties are the fundamental building blocks. In this property ontology physical systems are defined as bundles of type-properties (specified by algebras of observables in a Hilbert space). Not all elements of such bundles are associated with definite ca...

      ab: We propose a new quantum ontology, in which properties are the fundamental building blocks. In this property ontology physical systems are defined as bundles of type-properties (specified by algebras of observables in a Hilbert space). Not all elements of such bundles are associated with definite case-properties, and this accommodates the Kochen-Specker theorem and contextuality. Moreover, we do not attribute an identity to the type-properties, which gives rise to a novel form of the bundle theory. There are no "particles" in the sense of classical individuals in this ontology, although the behavior of such individuals is mimicked in some circumstances. This picture leads in a natural way to the symmetrization postulates for systems of many "identical particles".
