E. Schroedinger proposed the equation to find the statistical property of a quantum particle on a finite time interval. It is called "Schroedinger's functional equation". Given probability distributions of a particle at initial and terminal…

We propose that the Schrodinger equation results from applying the classical wave equation to describe the physical system in which subatomic particles play random motion, thereby leading to quantum mechanics. The physical reality described…

Since the early nineties, it has been observed that the Schroedinger bridge problem can be formulated as a stochastic control problem with atypical boundary constraints. This in turn has a fluid dynamic counterpart where the flow of…
