An experiment is suggested that is capable of distinguishing between the de Broglie-Bohm theory and standard quantum mechanics.
We recently introduced a particular nonlinear generalization of quantum mechanics which has the property that it is exactly solvable in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian of the usual linear quantum mechanics…
We discuss Bohmian paths of the two-level atoms moving in a waveguide through an external resonance-producing field, perpendicular to the waveguide, and localized in a region of finite diameter. The time spent by a particle in a potential…
It is shown explicitly that in the framework of Bohmian quantum gravity, the equations of motion of the space-time metric are Einstein's equations plus some quantum corrections. It is observed that these corrections are not covariant. So…
In this paper we generalize the ideas of de Broglie and Bohm to the relativistic case which is based on the relativistic Schr\"odinger equation. In this regard, the relativistic forms of the guidance equation and quantum potential are…
This article has been published as a chapter in "Chemical Reactivity Theory: A Density Functional View", ed. P. K. Chattaraj (CRC Press, New York, 2009), ch. 8, p. 105. In it, an overview of the relationship between time-dependent DFT and…
When most people think of physics, they think of what they learned in high school physics: that the world is fundamentally predictable. Given the position and velocity of a particle in space, it should be possible to predict its position at…
We analyze the so-called classical limit of the quantum-mechanical canonical partition function. In order to do that, we define accurately the density matrix for symmetrized and antisymmetrized wave functions only (Bose-Einstein and…
Quantum mechanics (QM) clearly violates Newton's First Law of Motion (NFLM) in the quantum domain for one of the simplest problems, yielding an effect in a force-free region much like the Aharonov-Bohm effect. In addition, there is an…
The ontological aspect of Bohmian mechanics, as a hidden-variable theory that provides us with an objective description of a quantum world without observers, is widely known. Yet its practicality is getting more and more acceptance and…
In this chapter, we will take a trip around several hot-spots where Bohmian mechanics and its capacity to describe the microscopic reality, even in the absence of measurements, can be harnessed as computational tools, in order to help in…
We consider the quantum dynamics of a test particle in noncommutative space under the influence of linearized gravitational waves in the long wave-length and low-velocity limit. A prescription for quantizing the classical Hamiltonian for…
The problem of a single electron in a magnetic field is revisited from first principles. It is shown that the standard quantization, used by Landau, is inconsistent for this problem, whence Landau's wave functions spontaneously break the…
Aiming at providing an objective motion picture for the microscopic object described by the wave function, new analysis about motion is presented by use of the point set theory in mathematics, through which we show that a new kind of motion…
In this work celebrating the centenary of quantum mechanics, we review the principles of de Broglie Bohm theory, also known as pilot-wave theory and Bohmian mechanics. We assess the most common reading of it (the Nomological interpretation…
The main topic of this paper is using Einstein's equivalence principle in the description of the gravity-induced wave function reduction in the framework of Bohmian causal quantum theory. However, such concept has been introduced and…
One of the biggest problems faced by those attempting to combine quantum theory and general relativity is the experimental inaccessibility of the unification scale. In this paper we show how incoherent conformal waves in the gravitational…
The spectral analysis of a non-Hermitian unbounded operator appearing in quantum physics is our main concern. The properties of such an operator are essentially different from those of Hermitian Hamiltonians, namely due to spectral…
The old cosmological-constant (CC) problem indicates an inconsistency of the usual formulation of semiclassical gravity. The usual formulation of semiclassical gravity also seems to be inconsistent with the conventional interpretation of…
Bohmian trajectories have been used for various purposes, including the numerical simulation of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation and the visualization of time-dependent wave functions. We review the purpose they were invented for:…
