In this paper we propose an idea to put the wave functions describing the move states of particles into a coordinate transformation and than point out it may be good for treatment of some quantum problems.
We consider the two basic theories of the standard physics: (1) the theory of relativity, as a four-dimensional time-space description of our universe, with the invariance of the time-space interval which leads to the Lorentz transformation, and (2) quantum mechanics, based on the Schrödinger equation, with a solution called wave function. However, we find that this equation is very unsatisfactory, describing fully unlocalized free particles, any initially localized particle rapidly spreading in space, in disagreement with the fundamental Hamilton equations. In agreement with the Hamilton equations, we describe a quantum particle by propagation wave functions in the coordinate and momentum spaces, with the Lagrangian in the time dependent phase instead of the Hamiltonian coming from the Schrödinger equation. With the relativistic Lagrangian, we obtain wave functions describing invariant distributions propagating in space.
States in quantum field theory (QFT) are represented by many-particle wave functions, such that a state describing n particles depends on n space–time positions. Since a general state is a superposition of states with different numbers of particles, the wave function lives in the configuration space identified with a product of an infinite number of four-dimensional Minkowski space–times. The squared absolute value of the wave function is interpreted as the probability density in the configuration space, from which the standard probabilistic predictions of QFT can be recovered. Such a formulation and probabilistic interpretation of QFT allows one to interpret the wave function as a pilot wave that describes deterministic particle trajectories, which automatically includes a deterministic and continuous description of particle creation and destruction. In particular, when the conditional wave function associated with a quantum measurement ceases to depend on one of the space–time coordinates, then the 4-velocity of the corresponding particle vanishes, describing a trajectory that stops at a particular point in space–time. In a more general situation a dependence on this space–time coordinate is negligibly small but not strictly zero, in which case the trajectory does not stop but the measuring apparatus still behaves as if this particle has been destroyed.
In this paper, the quantum dynamics was obtained in the framework of the general theory of relativity, where a quantum particle is described by a distribution of matter, with amplitude functions of the matter density, in the two conjugate spaces of the spatial coordinates and of the momentum, called wave functions. For a free particle, these wave functions are conjugate wave packets in the coordinate and momentum spaces, with time-dependent phases proportional to the relativistic Lagrangian, as the wave velocities in the coordinate space are equal to the distribution velocity described by the wave packet in this space. From the wave velocities of the particle wave functions, Lorentz’s force and the Maxwell equations were obtained. From the wave/group equation in the momentum space describing the Lorentz force, the expressions of the electric and magnetic fields as functions of the electric potential conjugated to time and of the vector potential conjugated to the coordinates in the particle-field Lagrangian were obtained. With these expressions, the electric and magnetic fields that satisfy the Faraday-Maxwell law of electromagnetic induction and the two Gauss-Maxwell laws of these fields were obtained. The Ampère-Maxwell law is obtained only by taking into account the physical consistency of the matter-field interaction of the equality of the propagation field velocity with the maximum relativistic velocity c. For a quantum particle in the electromagnetic field, dynamic equations in the coordinate and momentum spaces and the particle and antiparticle wave functions were obtained. It was shown that the electromagnetic potentials as functions of the coordinates describing the matter distribution of the quantum particle do not alter this distribution – under the action of an electromagnetic a quantum particle moves as a whole. The scattering or tunneling rate in an electromagnetic field, for the two possible cases, with the spin conservation, or inversion, were obtained. This description of a quantum particle as a distribution of matter with a density amplitude/wavefunction of the form of a wave packet, with the time-dependent phase proportional to the relativistic Lagrangian as a function of the metric tensor including also the gravitational field, enables the application of this theory in quantum gravity and quantum field theory in agreement with general relativity.
