On the logic of quantum physics and the concept of the time
Luigi Foschini

TL;DR
This paper analyzes the logical and linguistic structure of quantum physics, exploring how formal systems, interpretations, and the flow of time influence the representation of reality and resolve contradictions like Bohr's complementarity.
Contribution
It offers a philosophical analysis of quantum logic, emphasizing the role of time in preventing contradictions and providing insights into the nature of quantum reality.
Findings
Time flow prevents contradictions in quantum physics
Bohr's complementarity is a contradictory but essential concept
Formal logical analysis sheds light on quantum interpretational issues
Abstract
The logic--linguistic structure of quantum physics is analysed. The role of formal systems and interpretations in the representation of nature is investigated. The problems of decidability, completeness, and consistency can affect quantum physics in different ways. Bohr's complementarity is of great interest,because it is a contradictory proposition. We shall see that the flowing of time prevents the birth of contradictions in nature, because it makes a cut between two different, but complementary aspects of the reality.
