• Abstract: We identify points of difference between Invariant Set Theory and standard quantum theory, and show that these lead to noticeable differences in predictions between the two theories. We design a number of experiments to test which of these predictions corresponds to our world. If these experiments were undertaken, they would allow us to investigate whether standard quantum theory or invariant set theory best describes reality. These tests can also be deployed on theories sharing similar properties (e.g. Penrose's gravitational collapse theory).

  We provide a theoretical argument explaining the experimental observations of Yang-Hui He about the learnability of primes. We also posit that the ErdHos-Kac law would very unlikely be discovered by current machine learning techniques.

• Derivation of Standard Quantum Theory via State Discrimination [53.64687146666141]
  General Probabilistic Theories (GPTs) is a new information theoretical approach to single out standard quantum theory. We focus on the bound of the performance for an information task called state discrimination in general models. We characterize standard quantum theory out of general models in GPTs by the bound of the performance for state discrimination.

• Experience in quantum physics: toward a theory of everything [0.0]
  I argue for a minimal prescription in extracting empirical predictions from path integrals. Relative probability for one experience is obtained by summing over all configurations compatible with that experience. An application to Wigner's friend settings shows that quantum theory admits objective predictions for subjective experiences.

  Correlation self-testing of a theory addresses the question of whether we can identify the set of correlations realisable in a theory from its performance in a particular information processing task. This is the first step towards a general solution that could rule out all theories in which the set of realisable correlations does not coincide with the quantum set.

• Quantum Mechanical description of Bell's experiment assumes Locality [91.3755431537592]
  Bell's experiment description assumes the (Quantum Mechanics-language equivalent of the classical) condition of Locality. This result is complementary to a recently published one demonstrating that non-Locality is necessary to describe said experiment. It is concluded that, within the framework of Quantum Mechanics, there is absolutely no reason to believe in the existence of non-Local effects.
