OA strategy and quantum game theory Matthias Hanauske, Steffen Bernius, and Berndt Dugall, Quantum Game Theory and Open Access Publishing, a preprint, self-archived in arXiv December 24, 2006. (Thanks to Stevan Harnad.)
From the conclusion:
Comment. I'm having trouble translating this technical result into street-level recommendations for OA strategy. Quantum game theory allows the "entanglement" of different player strategies, just as quantum theory allows the entanglement of different particle wave functions. But in street terms, what does it mean for two scholars to have entangled strategies and what variables affect the degree of entanglement? I can guess, but I'd rather know what the authors had in mind. If you can help, please drop me a line or post a note to our discussion forum. |
