A Chaotic, Deterministic Model for Quantum Mechanics

Carl Frederick

With the decline of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics and the recent experiments indicating that quantum mechanics does actually embody 'objective reality', one might ask if a 'mechanical', conceptual model for quantum mechanics could be found. We propose such a model. Vacuum energy fluctuations imply mass fluctuations and, through general relativity, curvature fluctuations. And those fluctuations are indicated by fluctuations of the metric tensor. The metric tensor fluctuations can 'explain' the uncertainty relations and non-commuting properties of conjugate variables. We argue that that the probability density is proportional to the square root of minus the determinant of the metric tensor (the differential volume element). We argue that the metric elements are not stochastic but are oscillating at a high enough frequency that measured values of same appear stochastic (i.e. crypto-stochastic). We suggest that the oscillations at the position of particles are described as torsional vibrations. A crypto-stochastic (or chaotic) oscillating metric yields, among other things, a model of super-position, photon polarization, and entanglement, and all within the confines of a 4-dimensional space-time.

Stochastic space-time and the concept of potential in classical and quantum mechanics

R. K. Roy Choudhury, S. Roy

The generation of a potential from the fluctuation of the metric of micro-space-time due to an averaging procedure at the macrolevel as proposed in a previous paper in one dimension has been generalized to three dimensions. Also, an attempt is made to study the behavior of quantum processes in this framework. It raises a new possibility of rethinking the role of the potential in quantum mechanics.

Foundations of quantum mechanics: Connection with stochastic processes

L. S. F. Olavo

In this paper we explore the mathematical and epistemological connections between the stochastic derivation of the Schr\"odinger equation and the one proposed by ourselves in previous papers. It will be shown that these connections are accomplished by means of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, to which we may unambiguously relate the symbols and physical references of both approaches. As a by-product of our investigation, it will be possible to interpret the time-energy dispersion relation on sounder grounds. It will also be possible to discuss the superposition principle and to interpret it on a quite simple basis. The origin of the stochasticity and its relation to stability will be also addressed and the bridge to an axiomatic formulation of stochastic electrodynamics will be constructed.
