A classical origin for the Bohmian quantum potential, as that potential term arises in the quantum mechanical treatment of black holes and Einstein-Rosen (ER) bridges, can be based on 4th-order extensions of Einstein's equations. The…
In this paper I describe the history of the surreal trajectories problem and argue that in fact it is not a problem for Bohm's theory. More specifically, I argue that one can take the particle trajectories predicted by Bohm's theory to be…
When numerically simulating the unitary time evolution of an infinite-dimensional quantum system, one is usually led to treat the Hamiltonian $H$ as an "infinite-dimensional matrix" by expressing it in some orthonormal basis of the Hilbert…
This article considers non-stationary incompressible linear fluid equations in a moving domain. We demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of an appropriate weak formulation of the problem by making use of the theory of time-dependent…
The de Broglie-Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics aims to give a realist description of quantum phenomena in terms of the motion of point-like particles following well-defined trajectories. This work is concerned by the de…
Recently, it has been shown in [Hairer, M., Hutzenthaler, M., Jentzen, A., Loss of regularity for Kolmogorov equations, Ann. Probab. 43, 2 (2015), 468--527] that there exists a system of stochastic differential equations (SDE) on the time…
In a recent article [Foo et. al., Nature Comms. 13, 2 (2022)], we devised a method of constructing the Lorentz-covariant Bohmian trajectories of single photons via weak measurements of the photon's momentum and energy. However, whether such…
We study pathwise approximation of scalar stochastic differential equations at a single time point or globally in time by means of methods that are based on finitely many observations of the driving Brownian motion. We prove lower error…
The central limit theorem has been found to apply to random vectors in complex Hilbert space. This amounts to sufficient reason to study the complex valued Gaussian, looking for relevance to quantum mechanics. Here we show that the…
We show an example of benign non-separability in an apparently separable system consisting of $n$ free non-correlated quantum particles, solitonic solutions to the nonlinear phase modification of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation proposed…
In principle, non-Hermitian quantum equations of motion can be formulated using as a starting point either the Heisenberg's or the Schr\"odinger's picture of quantum dynamics. Here it is shown in both cases how to map the algebra of…
We discuss the effect of small perturbation on nodeless solutions of the nonlinear \Schrodinger\ equation in 1+1 dimensions in an external complex potential derivable from a parity-time symmetric superpotential that was considered earlier…
The dynamics of a many-particle system are often modeled by mapping the Hamiltonian onto a Schr\"odinger equation. An alternative approach is to solve the Hamiltonian equations directly in a model space of many-body configurations. In a…
In certain instances, the particle paths predicted by Bohmian mechanics are thought to be at odds with classical intuition. A striking illustration arises in the interference experiments envisaged by Englert, Scully, S\"ussmann and Walther,…
We consider the dynamical system \begin{equation*}\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} v(t)\in\partial\phi(x(t))\\ \lambda\dot x(t) + \dot v(t) + v(t) + \nabla \psi(x(t))=0, \end{array}\right.\end{equation*} where $\phi:\R^n\to\R\cup\{+\infty\}$ is a…
In this paper we consider linear, time dependent Schr\"odinger equations of the form $i \partial_t \psi = K_0 \psi + V(t) \psi $, where $K_0$ is a positive self-adjoint operator with discrete spectrum and whose spectral gaps are…
We study the de Broglie-Bohm interpretation of bosonic relativistic quantum mechanics and argue that the negative densities and superluminal velocities that appear in this interpretation do not lead to inconsistencies. After that, we study…
We report on a computational approach based on the self-consistent solution of the steady-state Boltzmann transport equation coupled with the Poisson equation for the study of inhomogeneous transport in deep submicron semiconductor…
The paper presents an inquiry into the question regarding the compatibility of Bohmian mechanics, intended as a non-local theory of moving point-like particles, with background independence. This issue is worth being investigated because,…
In this article, we present an orthogonal basis expansion method for solving stochastic differential equations with a path-independent solution of the form $X_{t}=\phi(t,W_{t})$. For this purpose, we define a Hilbert space and construct an…
