The quantum measurement problem as was formulated by von Neumann in 1933 can be solved by going beyond the operational quantum formalism. In our "prequantum model" quantum systems are symbolic representations of classical random fields. The…
We are describing relations between Schr\"odinger's variational problem and Onsager's approach to nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. Although the second work on reciprocal relations and detailed balance has been published in the same…
According to Schroedinger's ideas, classical dynamics of point particles should correspond to the " geometrical optics " limit of a linear wave equation, in the same way as ray optics is the limit of wave optics. It is shown that, using…
In a previous article [H. Bergeron, J. Math. Phys. 42, 3983 (2001)], we presented a method to obtain a continuous transition from classical to quantum mechanics starting from the usual phase space formulation of classical mechanics. This…
In 1931/32, Schroedinger studied a hot gas Gedankenexperiment, an instance of large deviations of the empirical distribution and an early example of the so-called maximum entropy inference method. This so-called Schroedinger bridge problem…
It is shown that the Bohm equations for the phase $S$ and squared modulus $\rho$ of the quantum mechanical wave function can be derived from the classical ensemble equations admiting an aditional momentum $p_s$ of the form proportional to…
We revisit the work of Mitter and Newton on an information-theoretic interpretation of Bayes' formula through the Gibbs variational principle. This formulation allowed them to pose nonlinear estimation for diffusion processes as a problem…
Based on the assumption that the standard Schr\"odinger equation becomes gravitationally modified for massive macroscopic objects, two independent proposals has survived from the nineteen-eighties. The Schr\"odinger--Newton equation (1984)…
The aim of the article is to develop the stochastic interpretation of quantum mechanics by E. Nelson on the basis of balancing the intra-systemic contradiction (i.e., antisymmetry) between "order" and "chaos". For the set task, it is…
Working entirely within the Schroedinger paradigm, meaning wavefunction only, I present a modification of his theory that prevents formation of macroscopic dispersion (MD; "cats"). The proposal is to modify the Hamiltonian based on a method…
Recently, a geometric embedding of the classical space and classical phase space of an n-particle system into the space of states of the system was constructed and shown to be physically meaningful. Namely, the Newtonian dynamics of the…
This article is the second in a series of two presenting the Scale Relativistic approach to non-differentiability in mechanics and its relation to quantum mechanics. Here, we show Schroedinger's equation to be a reformulation of Newton's…
Stochastic flows of an advective-diffusive nature are ubiquitous in physical sciences. Of particular interest is the problem to reconcile observed marginal distributions with a given prior posed by E. Schrodinger in 1932/32 and known as the…
We study the Schr\"odinger bridge problem when the endpoint distributions are available only through samples. Classical computational approaches estimate Schr\"odinger potentials via Sinkhorn iterations on empirical measures and then…
In this comment, we point out some shortcomings in two papers "Fractional quantum mechanics" [Phys. Rev. E 62, 3135 (2000)] and "Fractional Schroedinger equation" [Phys. Rev. E 66, 056108 (2002)]. We prove that the fractional uncertainty…
This work explores the possibility of applying stochastic quantum mechanics to curved spacetimes, with an emphasis on the Schwarzschild black hole. After reviewing the fundamental concepts of this approach, the quantum stochastic equations…
We have previously presented a version of the Weak Equivalence Principle for a quantum particle as an exact analog of the classical case, based on the Heisenberg picture analysis of free particle motion. Here, we take that to a full…
Quantum mechanics postulates the existence of states determined by a particle position at a single time. This very concept, in conjunction with superposition, induces much of the quantum-mechanical structure. In particular, it implies the…
It has been suggested that the nonlinear Schr\"odinger-Newton equation might approximate the coupling of quantum mechanics with gravitation, particularly in the context of the M{\o}ller-Rosenfeld semiclassical theory. Numerical results for…
The Nelson stochastic mechanics is derived as a consequence of the basic physical principles such as the principle of relativity of observations and the invariance of the action quantum. The unitary group of quantum mechanics is represented…
