Abstract
It is shown how to map the quantum states of a system of free scalar particles one-to-one onto the states of a completely deterministic model. It is a classical field theory with a large (global) gauge group. The mapping is now also applied to free Maxwell fields. Lorentz invariance is demonstrated.
