The linear Schr\"{o}dinger equation does not predict that macroscopic bodies should be located at one place only. Quantum mechanics textbooks generally solve the problem by introducing the projection postulate, which forces definite values…

It is well known, that the causal Schr\"odinger evolution of a quantum state is not compatible with the reduction postulate, even when decoherence is taken into account. The violation of the causal evolution, introduced by the standard…

Utilization of a quantum system whose time-development is described by the nonlinear Schrodinger equation in the transformation of qubits would make it possible to construct quantum algorithms which would be useful in a large class of…
An universal form of kinetic equation for open systems is considered which naturally unifies classical and quantum cases and allows to extend concept of wave function to open quantum systems. Corresponding stochastic Schr\"{o}dinger…

A subjective survey of stochastic models of quantum mechanics is given along with a discussion of some key radiative processes, the clues they offer, and the difficulties they pose for this program. An electromagnetic basis for deriving…
Quantum mechanics has been argued to be a coarse-graining of some underlying deterministic theory. Here we support this view by establishing a map between certain solutions of the Schroedinger equation, and the corresponding solutions of…
This paper proposes an interpretation of quantum mechanics, relying on the time-symmetric stochastic dynamics of quantum particles and on non-classical probability theory. Our main purpose is to demonstrate that the wave function and its…
