We study the stability of the Schr\"odinger equation generated by time-dependent Hamiltonians with constant form domain. That is, we bound the difference between solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation by the difference of their…
We embed Nelson's stochastic quantization in the Schwartz-Meyer second order geometry framework. The result is a non-perturbative theory of quantum mechanics on (pseudo)-Riemannian manifolds. Within this approach, we derive stochastic…
Newtonian and Schrodinger dynamics can be formulated in a physically meaningful way within the same Hilbert space framework. This fact was recently used to discover an unexpected relation between classical and quantum motions that goes…
We present an exact solution to the one-dimensional (1-D) scattering-from-a-barrier problem for an incident neutron described by a wave packet. As an aid to presenting our approach, we spend some time on a basic review of how wave packets…
Nelson's stochastic mechanics links quantum mechanics to an underlying Brownian motion with the identification $\hbar = m\sigma$. Ghose's interpolating equation introduces a continuous parameter $\lambda$ that suppresses the quantum…
We investigate the martingale Schr\"odinger bridge, recently introduced by Nutz and Wiesel as a distinguished martingale transport plan between two probability measures in convex order. We show that this construction extends naturally to…
An analytical approach to quantum mechanical wave packet dynamics of laser-driven particles is presented. The time-dependent Schroedinger equation is solved for an electron exposed to a linearly polarized plane wave of arbitrary shape. The…
We consider a stochastic process which is (a) described by a continuous-time Markov chain on only short time-scales and (b) constrained to conserve a number of hidden quantities on long time-scales. We assume that the transition matrix of…
We investigate a $D$ dimensional generalization of the Schroedinger-Newton equations, which purport to describe quantum state reduction as resulting from gravitational effects. For a single particle, the system is a combination of the…
This paper posits the existence of, and finds a candidate for, a variable change that allows quantum mechanics to be interpreted as quantum geometry. The Bohr model of the Hydrogen atom is thought of in terms of an indeterministic electron…
Exploiting a fluid dynamic formulation for which a probabilistic counterpart might not be available, we extend the theory of Schroedinger bridges to the case of inertial particles with losses and general, possibly singular diffusion…
If there exists a formulation of quantum mechanics which does not refer to a background classical spacetime manifold, it then follows as a consequence, (upon making one plausible assumption), that a quantum description of gravity should be…
The Schr\"odinger-Newton equation, a theoretical framework connecting quantum mechanics with classical gravity, predicts that gravity may induce measurable deviations in low-frequency mechanical systems-an intriguing hypothesis at the…
We study a (relativistic) Wiener process on a complexified (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold. Using Nelson's stochastic quantization procedure, we derive three equivalent descriptions for this problem. If the process has a purely real quadratic…
The measurement problem of quantum mechanics concerns the question under which circumstances coherent wave evolution becomes disrupted to produce eigenstates of observables, instead of evolving superpositions of eigenstates. The problem…
The usual Heisenberg uncertainty relation for position and momentum may be replaced by an exact equality, for suitably chosen measures of position and momentum uncertainty. This "exact" uncertainty relation is valid for_all_ pure states,…
Transport and scattering phenomena in open quantum-systems with a continuous energy spectrum are conveniently solved using the time-dependent Schrodinger equation. In the time-dependent picture, the evolution of an initially localized…
In this initial paper in a series, we first discuss why classical motions of small particles should be treated statistically. Then we show that any attempted statistical description of any nonrelativistic classical system inevitably yields…
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…
A quantum finite multi-barrier system, with a periodic potential, is considered and exact expressions for its plane wave amplitudes are obtained using the Transfer Matrix method [10]. This quantum model is then associated with a stochastic…
