Over the last ten years, elements of the formalism of quantum
mechanics have been successfully applied beyond physics in areas
such as psychology (especially cognition), economics and finance
(especially in the formalization of so-called ‘decision
making’), political science, and molecular biology. An important
stream of work along these lines, commonly under the heading of
quantum-like modeling, has been published in well regarded
scientific journals, and major publishers have devoted entire
books to the topic. This Festschrift honors a key figure in
this field of research: Andrei Khrennikov, who made momentous
contributions to it and to quantum foundations
themselves. While honoring these contributions, and in
order to do so, this Festschrift orients its reader toward the
future rather than focusing on the past: it addresses future
challenges and establishes the way forward in both domains,
quantum-like modeling and quantum foundations. A while
ago, in response to the developments of using the quantum formalism
outside of quantum mechanics, the eminent quantum physicist Anton
Zeilinger said, ‘Why should it be precisely the quantum mechanics
formalism? Maybe its generalization would be more adequate…’
This volume responds to this statement by both showing the reasons
for the continuing importance of quantum formalism and yet
also considering pathways to such generalizations.
Khrennikov’s work has been indispensable
in establishing the great promise of quantum and
quantum-like thinking in shaping the future of scientific research
across the disciplines.
