"Fundamental randomness" by the "apophatic" Kochen -Specker theorem: Toward a universal method in Hilbert arithmetic's number theory
One of the most fundamental theoretical results in quantum mechanics, the theorem of Simon Kochen and Ernst Specker (1967), is investigated from a rather mathematical and philosophical than physical viewpoint (i.e. unlike as usual). The absence of hidden variables is interpreted philosophically and ontomathematically: as the identity of the mathematical model by the separable complex Hilbert space (equivalent to the qubit Hilbert space) and physical reality. It implies the completeness of just that model to physical reality including in the sense of its cognitive finality. In other words, "hidden variables" are also interpreted as any mismatch between model and reality implied by the theorem not to be. That property of the qubit Hilbert space unique among all other mathematical theories (i.e., all first-order logics) is deduced as a corollary from the theorem as well. The approach at issue to the theorem implies its inherent contextuality to be deduced also in an "apophatic" or holistic version stating that omitting even a single "axis" of Hilbert space or a single value of probability density break its contextuality thus being inconsistent to the theorem. The concept of "fundamental randomness" is newly introduced as originating from the absence of hidden variables in any probability (density or not) distribution, the characteristic function of which is interpreted to be a (qubit) wave function. Then, the Kochen-Specker theorem implies no deviation from that "fundamental randomness" exists once its preconditions have been satisfied. The deviations at issue are seen to be any excluded degrees of freedom in a variable describing whatever. Just this statement is interpreted to be the theorem's "apophatic interpretation". A powerful method for proving statements in Hilbert arithmetic's number theory is offered as a conjecture to be reasoned and proved in a forthcoming paper.
