The deterministic debate and its physical foundation

The determinism of analytical mechanics, the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics, and the predictability problems associated with chaotic processes are some examples that demonstrate that the question of determinism remains unresolved. This research seeks to advance the clarification of the controversy over the existence of a possible ontological determinism, distinguishing more precisely the notions with which determinism is linked and investigating the ontological foundations of physical theories. The aim is to explore whether determinism should be considered a property of nature or a consequence derived from the axiomatic system of physical theories. Among physical theories, quantum mechanics will be chosen for further study. In light of advances in contemporary philosophy of mind, the relationship between determinism and freedom will also be investigated.
