We develop a prequantum classical statistical model in that the role of hidden variables is played by classical (vector) fields. We call this model Prequantum Classical Statistical Field Theory (PCSFT). The correspondence between classical and quantum quantities is asymptotic, so we call our approach asymptotic dequantization. In this note we pay the main attention to interpretation of so called pure quantum states (wave functions) in PCSFT, especially stationary states. We show, see Theorem 2, that pure states of QM can be considered as labels for Gaussian measures concentrated on one dimensional complex subspaces of phase space that are invariant with respect to the Schrödinger dynamics. ``A quantum system in a stationary state ψ'' in PCSFT is nothing else than a Gaussian ensemble of classical fields (fluctuations of the vacuum field of a very small magnitude) which is not changed in the process of Schrödinger's evolution. We interpret in this way the problem of {\it stability of hydrogen atom.
We show that QM can be represented as a natural projection of a classical statistical model on the phase space Ω=H×H, where H is the real Hilbert space. Statistical states are given by Gaussian measures on Ω having zero mean value and dispersion of the Planck magnitude -- fluctuations of the ``vacuum field.'' Physical variables (e.g., energy) are given by maps f:Ω→R (functions of classical fields). The crucial point is that statistical states and variables are symplectically invariant. The conventional quantum representation of our prequantum classical statistical model is constructed on the basis of the Teylor expansion (up to the terms of the second order at the vacuum field point ω=0) of variables f:Ω→R with respect to the small parameter κ=h. A Gaussian symplectically invariant measure (statistical state) is represented by its covariation operator (von Neumann statistical operator). A symplectically invariant smooth function (variable) is represented by its second derivative at the vacuum field point ω=0. From the statistical viewpoint QM is a statistical approximation of the prequantum classical statistical field theory (PCSFT). Such an approximation is obtained through neglecting by statistical fluctuations of the magnitude o(h),h→0, in averages of physical variables. Equations of Schrödinger, Heisenberg and von Neumann are images of dynamics on Ω with a symplectically invariant Hamilton function.
We show that QM can be represented as a natural projection of a classical statistical model on the phase space Ω=H×H, where H is the real Hilbert space. Statistical states are given by Gaussian measures on Ω having zero mean value and dispersion of very small magnitude α (which is considered as a small parameter of the model). Such statistical states can be interpreted as fluctuations of the background field, cf. with SED and Nelson's mechanics. Physical variables (e.g., energy) are given by maps f:Ω→R (functions of classical fields). The conventional quantum representation of our prequantum classical statistical model is constructed on the basis of the Taylor expansion (up to the terms of the second order at the vacuum field point ψ_vacuum≡0) of variables f:Ω→R with respect to the small parameter α. The complex structure of QM is induced by the symplectic structure on the infinite-dimensional phase space Ω. A Gaussian measure (statistical state) is represented in QM by its covariation operator. Equations of Schrödinger, Heisenberg and von Neumann are images of Hamiltonian dynamics on Ω. The main experimental prediction of our prequantum model is that experimental statistical averages can deviate from ones given by QM.
