摘要: Some interpretations of quantum mechanics use notions possible states and trajectories. We investigate how this modal approach correlates with several metaphysical conceptions a transition from potential to actual existence. The comparison is based on discussion in contemporary analytic metaphysics modality. also consider an analogy between Leibniz’s theory the possibilities striving towards existence, wave Schrodinger, Feynman path integral.
