Reply to a Comment on Physics without determinism: Alternative interpretations of classical physics


Abstract in English

In this short note we reply to a comment by Callegaro et al. [1] (arXiv:2009.11709) that points out some weakness of the model of indeterministic physics that we proposed in Ref. [2] (Physical Review A, 100(6), p.062107), based on what we named finite information quantities (FIQs). While we acknowledge the merit of their criticism, we maintain that it applies only to a concrete example that we discussed in [2], whereas the main concept of FIQ remains valid and suitable for describing indeterministic physical models. We hint at a more sophisticated way to define FIQs which, taking inspiration from intuitionistic mathematics, would allow to overcome the criticisms in [1].
