Abstract
I summarize the main approaches to the ‘Past Hypothesis’ - the postulation of a low-entropy initial state of the universe – which is an open problem in the philosophical foundations of physics. I hope that this brief overview will help readers in gaining perspective and in appreciating the diverse range of approaches in this fascinating unresolved debate.
In questo contributo riassumo i principali approcci alla ‘Ipotesi del Passato’ - la postulazione di bassissima entropia nello stato iniziale dell’universo, la quale costituisce un problema aperto nei fondamenti filosofici della fisica. L’obiettivo di questa breve panoramica è aiutare il lettore a ottenere una visione d’insieme e così apprezzare la varietà di approcci a questo affascinante problema irrisolto.
