A characteristical property of a classical physical theory is that the observables are real functions taking an exact outcome on every (pure) state; in a quantum theory, at the contrary, a given observable on a given state can take several…

The question about the existence of so-called ``hidden'' variables in quantum mechanics and the perception of the completeness of quantum mechanics are two sides of the same coin. Quantum analytical mechanics constitutes a completion of…

We describe a simple derivation of virial relations (VR) for arbitrary action-governed systems. These follow directly from the action with no need to go via the equations of motion. When some of the degrees of freedom are of the same type a…
