Schr\"{o}dinger's famous Gedankenexperiment involving a cat is used as a motivation to discuss the evolution of states of the composition of classical and quantum systems in the groupoid formalism for physical theories introduced recently.…
Non-relativistic quantum mechanics is shown to emerge from classical mechanics through the requirement of a relativity principle based on special transformations acting on position and momentum uncertainties. These transformations keep the…
If the unitary quantum mechanical state evolution is universally valid, quantized systems evolve uniformly, deterministically, and reversible; that is, one-to-one. Hence, what is considered an irreversible measurement might be a purely…
There is no paradox with Schr\"odinger's cat in a realist interpretation because in such an interpretation wave functions which represent the same object at different times are not to be superposed.
Novel categories of electronic devices and quantum materials are obtained by pipelining the unitary evolution of electron quantum states as described by Schroedinger's equation with non-unitary processes that interrupt the coherent…
Hallmarks of quantum mechanics include superposition and entanglement. In the context of large complex systems, these features should lead to situations like Schrodinger's cat, which exists in a superposition of alive and dead states…
Schroedinger's equation gave early quantum theory a visual language that looked like physics again: a wave evolving by a linear differential equation. This essay argues that the same success also seeded a recurring impulse to keep quantum…
In this work we suggest an original, realistic and simple, form of the experiment of interference of single photon at beam splitter. Here quantum entanglement (Schrodinger cat effect) between photon and photon trajectories detector (which…
The most discussed of ``live'' metaphors in physical sciences is that of the Schr\"odinger cat. Introduced in the early, but mature days of the new quantum theory, in 1935, the parable of the cat has provoked and enlivened debates on the…
We study the quantum mechanics of the derivative nonlinear Schrodinger equation which has appeared in many areas of physics and is known to be classically integrable. We find that the N-body quantum problem is exactly solvable with both…
We consider a wide class of nonlinear canonical quantum systems described by a one-particle Schroedinger equation containing a complex nonlinearity. We introduce a nonlinear unitary transformation which permits us to linearize the…
We show that the natural motion of particles in continuous space-time (CSTM) is not classical continuous motion (CCM), but one kind of essentially discontinuous motion, the wave function in quantum mechanics is the very mathematical complex…
In early days of navigation over sea and ocean it has been considered that when a ship, governed by waves, arrives as some critical distance of the global character, then this ship must absolute collapse, i.e. must fall in the nothing. Only…
We study the dynamics of classical and quantum systems linearly interacting with a classical environment represented by an infinite set of harmonic oscillators. The environment induces a dynamical localization of the quantum state into a…
The dynamics of models described by a one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation is studied. The nonlinearity in these models appears due to the coupling of the electronic motion to optical oscillators which are treated in…
I impose the Newtonian criteria of inertial frames on the c.o.m. trajectories of massive objects undergoing spontaneous collapse of their wave function. The corresponding modification of the so far used stochastic Schr\"odinger equation…
A new nonlinear Schroedinger equation is obtained explicitly from the fractal Brownian motion of a massive particle with a complex-valued diffusion constant. Real-valued energy (momentum) plane wave and soliton solutions are found in the…
According to Schroedinger's ideas, classical dynamics of point particles should correspond to the " geometrical optics " limit of a linear wave equation, in the same way as ray optics is the limit of wave optics. It is shown that, using…
The interpretation proposed in quant-ph/9812011 is extended to the general case of a non-relativistic particle moving in an arbitrary external potential. It is shown that, even in this general case, "particle" solutions exist which do not…
We propose a modified dynamics of quantum mechanics, in which classical mechanics of a point mass derives intrinsically in a massive limit of a single-particle model. On the premise that a position basis plays a special role in wavefunction…
