A Superdeterministic Toy Model
Year: 2020
Type: preprint
Abstract: A superdeterministic toy model for quantum mechanics is introduced and discussed. It is demonstrated that, when averaged over the hidden variables, the model produces the same predictions as quantum mechanics. In the model considered here, the dynamics depends only on the settings of the measurement device at the detection time, not how those settings were chosen. This provides a counter-example to the claim that superdeterminism is fine-tuned and unscientific.
