Consider the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation set on a d-dimensional torus, with data whose Fourier coefficients have phases which are uniformly distributed and independent. We show that, on average, the evolution of the moduli of the…

At present, there are two possible, and equally plausible, explanations for the physics of quantum measurement. The first explanation, known as the many-worlds interpretation, does not require any modification of quantum mechanics, and…

In order to make the quantum mechanics a closed theory one has to derive the Born rule from the first principles, like the Schroedinger equation, rather than postulate it. The Born rule was in certain sense derived in several articles, e.g.…

We analyze the evolution of a particle wave function when it propagates through free space in the longitudinal z-direction from a thin entrance slit to a detector behind a thin exit slit parallel to the horizontal y-axis. We consider an…

We present a renewed wave-packet analysis based on the following ideas: if a quantum one-particle scattering process and the corresponding state are described by an indivisible wave packet to move as a whole at all stages of scattering,…

Using classical statistics, Schrodinger equation in quantum mechanics is derived from complex space model. Phase-space probability amplitude, that can be defined on classical point of view, has connections to probability amplitude in…

We show that the Schr\"odinger equation can be solved exactly based only on classical least action. Fundamental postulates of quantum mechanics can in turn be derived directly from this construction. The results extend to the relativistic…

We consider the focusing 2D non-linear Schr\"odinger equation, perturbed by a damping term, and driven by multiplicative noise. We show that a physically motivated trial solution does not collapse for any admissible initial condition…

There are fundamental reasons as to why there should exist a reformulation of quantum mechanics which does not refer to a classical spacetime manifold. It follows as a consequence that quantum mechanics as we know it is a limiting case of a…
