This is my personal academic homepage. You may have seen my other personal website, but given the need for a more formal and academic platform, I decided to create this site (although, to be honest, the main reason is that I finally got this domain name).

I am currently a PhD candidate in Informatcis Institute, Faculty of Science, at the University of Amsterdam, under the supervision of Prof. dr. Paola Grosso, Dr. Chrysa Papagainni, and Dr. Adam S.Z. Belloum. My research interests cover Digital Twin, Networks, and Machine Learning.

I studied Computer Science at the University of Amsterdam (UvA) and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU), graduated early, and received my Master’s degree with cum laude (distinction) honors, from 2023 to 2024.

My hobbies include Rubik’s cubes (speed cubing, blind cubing, and everything related to cubes) and playing basketball. Feel free to reach out if we share similar interests!

Can Quantum-Mechanical Description of Physical Reality Be Considered Complete?

In a complete theory there is an element corresponding to each element of reality. A sufficient condition for the reality of a physical quantity is the possibility of predicting it with certainty, without disturbing the system. In quantum mechanics in the case of two physical quantities described by non-commuting operators, the knowledge of one precludes the knowledge of the other. Then either (1) the description of reality given by the wave function in quantum mechanics is not complete or (2) these two quantities cannot have simultaneous reality. Consideration of the problem of making predictions concerning a system on the basis of measurements made on another system that had previously interacted with it leads to the result that if (1) is false then (2) is also false. One is thus led to conclude that the description of reality as given by a wave function is not complete.
