The equivalence postulate of quantum mechanics offers an axiomatic approach to quantum field theories and quantum gravity. The equivalence hypothesis can be viewed as adaptation of the classical Hamilton-Jacobi formalism to quantum…
We show that the recently formulated Equivalence Principle (EP) implies a basic cocycle condition both in Euclidean and Minkowski spaces, which holds in any dimension. This condition, that in one-dimension is sufficient to fix the…
Commutativity of the diagram of the maps connecting three one--particle state, implied by the Equivalence Postulate (EP), gives a cocycle condition which unequivocally leads to the quantum Hamilton--Jacobi equation. Energy quantization is a…
We postulate that physical states are equivalent under coordinate transformations. We then implement this equivalence principle first in the case of one-dimensional stationary systems showing that it leads to the quantum analogue of the…
We consider two theorems formulated in the derivation of the Quantum Hamilton-Jacobi Equation from the EP. The first one concerns the proof that the cocycle condition uniquely defines the Schwarzian derivative. This is equivalent to show…
The Equivalence Principle (EP), stating that all physical systems are connected by a coordinate transformation to the free one with vanishing energy, univocally leads to the Quantum Stationary HJ Equation (QSHJE). Trajectories depend on the…
We suggest that quantum mechanics and gravity are intimately related. In particular, we investigate the quantum Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the case of two free particles and show that the quantum potential, which is attractive, may…
A basic aspect of the recently proposed approach to quantum mechanics is that no use of any axiomatic interpretation of the wave function is made. In particular, the quantum potential turns out to be an intrinsic potential energy of the…
The numerical version of the Hamilton-Jacobi quantization method, recently proposed, is applied to the one dimensional quartic oscillator. A suitable quantization condition is formulated and various energy levels and wave functions are…
It has earlier been argued that there should exist a formulation of quantum mechanics which does not refer to a background spacetime. In this paper we propose that, for a relativistic particle, such a formulation is provided by a…
The equivalence postulate approach to quantum mechanics entails a derivation of quantum mechanics from a fundamental geometrical principle. Underlying the formalism there exists a basic cocycle condition, which is invariant under…
Recently we showed that the postulated diffeomorphic equivalence of states implies quantum mechanics. This approach takes the canonical variables to be dependent by the relation p=\partial_q S_0 and exploits a basic GL(2,C)-symmetry which…
The equivalence postulate approach to quantum mechanics aims to formulate quantum mechanics from a fundamental geometrical principle. Underlying the formulation there exists a basic cocycle condition which is invariant under…
Five physical assumptions are proposed that together entail the general qualitative results, including the Born rule, of non-relativistic quantum mechanics by physical and information-theoretic reasoning alone. Two of these assumptions…
The role of the Equivalence Principle (EP) in classical and quantum mechanics is reviewed. It is shown that the weak EP has a counterpart in quantum theory, a Quantum Equivalence Principle (QEP). This implies that also in the quantum domain…
Using the quantum Hamilton-Jacobi equation within the framework of the equivalence postulate, we construct a Lagrangian of a quantum system in one dimension and derive a third order equation of motion representing a first integral of the…
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…
In this article, we develop quantum mechanics upon the framework of the quantum mechanical Hamilton-Jacobi theory. We will show, that the Schroedinger point of view and the Hamilton-Jacobi point of view are fully equivalent in their…
The Quantum Stationary HJ Equation (QSHJE) that we derived from the equivalence principle, gives rise to initial conditions which cannot be seen in the Schroedinger equation. Existence of the classical limit leads to a dependence of the…
Adaptation of the Hamilton--Jacobi formalism to quantum mechanics leads to a cocycle condition, which is invariant under $D$--dimensional M\"obius transformations with Euclidean or Minkowski metrics. In this paper we aim to provide a…
