We present and experimentally realize a quantum algorithm for efficiently solving the following problem: given an $N\times N$ matrix $\mathcal{M}$, an $N$-dimensional vector $\textbf{\emph{b}}$, and an initial vector $\textbf{\emph{x}}(0)$,…

An analysis of the motion of a relativistic electron under a linear constraint in four dimensions is presented. Interesting results are given that show that the state of the electron is well defined under the formalism of time optimal…

The measurement problem is the issue of explaining how the objective classical world emerges from a quantum one. Here we take a different approach. We assume that there is an objective classical system, and then ask that the standard rules…

Bohmian mechnaics is the most naively obvious embedding imaginable of Schr\"odingers's equation into a completely coherent physical theory. It describes a world in which particles move in a highly non-Newtonian sort of way, one which may at…
