Stability Principle in Non-Inertial Physics

Abstract

Quantum mechanics is traditionally formulated in terms of postulates inferred from experimentalobservations. Here we propose that the statistical regularities of quantum mechanics arise as macro-scopic manifestations of stochastic fluctuations of dynamical parameters in microscopic systems gen-erated by a non-inertial physical background. Although the specific nature of this background mayvary, the universality of quantum statistics is ensured by invariant properties of stochastic dynam-ics - analogous to the role of the equivalence principle in general relativity - and by the existence ofa fundamental action scale, Planck constant h. By extending classical mechanics to include higher-order derivatives induced by non-inertial fuctuations and imposing a stability condition on admissibletrajectories, the minimal action scale h naturally emerges. In this framework quantum mechanicsappears as an effective statistical description of systems embedded in a fluctuating non-inertial envi-ronment while preserving all standard predictions of the theory.

Ground-State Emission and Z5 Scaling in Coulomb Atom

T. F. Kamalov

Quantum mechanics is commonly formulated through a set of postulates inferred from experimental observations. In the present work we investigate whether parts of this axiomatic structure can arise from classical dynamics in a stochastic non-inertial background. We show that two key elements of the conventional formulation—the existence of a fundamental action scale and the Schr¨odinger dynamics—can emerge from a stability condition applied to classical motion in the presence of non-inertial fluctuations. The stability condition implies a balance between the work of non-inertial forces and the emission of electromagnetic energy in the ground state. Within this framework stochastic non-inertial fluctuations generate an effective statistical description that reproduces the structure of quantum mechanics while reducing the number of fundamental assumptions. The theory predicts a previously unexplored Z5 scaling of non-inertial corrections to bound-state energies in hydrogen-like atoms.

From Entropic Dynamics to Quantum Theory ∗

Ariel Caticha

Non-relativistic quantum theory is derived from information codified into an appropriate statistical model. The basic assumption is that there is an irreducible uncertainty in the location of particles so that the configuration space is a statistical manifold. The dynamics then follows from a principle of inference, the method of Maximum Entropy. The concept of time is introduced as a convenient way to keep track of change. The resulting formalism is close to Nelson’s stochastic mechanics. The statistical manifold is a dynamical entity: its (information) geometry determines the evolution of the probability distribution which, in its turn, reacts back and determines the evolution of the geometry. As in General Relativity there is a kind of equivalence principle in that “fictitious ” forces – in this case diffusive “osmotic ” forces – turn out to be “real”. This equivalence of quantum and statistical fluctuations – or of quantum and classical probabilities – leads to a natural explanation of the equality of inertial and “osmotic ” masses and allows explaining quantum theory as a sophisticated example of entropic inference. Mass and the phase of the wave function are explained as features of purely statistical origin.

The Action Scale and The Emergence of Classical Dynamics in Quantum Systems

Rodika Utama, Rustaman

The principle of action plays a central role in both classical and quantum mechanics, yet its physical meaning is often introduced in a purely formal manner. In this work, the concept of action is examined from a scale-based perspective that clarifies its role in the quantum–classical correspondence. By emphasizing the dimensionless ratio S/ℏ, we show that the emergence of classical dynamics can be understood as a consequence of quantum phase coherence rather than as an independent postulate. Within the path integral formulation, classical trajectories arise naturally from stationary-phase conditions when the action associated with a physical process becomes large compared to Planck’s constant. This interpretation provides a unified conceptual framework in which variational principles, quantum interference, and classical determinism are linked through the scale of action. The analysis highlights the role of Planck’s constant as a universal parameter governing the physical relevance of alternative histories, analogous to the function of Boltzmann’s constant in statistical physics. Beyond its theoretical implications, the proposed perspective offers pedagogical value by providing a coherent bridge between classical and quantum mechanics suitable for advanced undergraduate and early graduate physics education.

Quantum Mechanics and Cosmology Arising from the Unobservability of Scale

Paul Michel

We propose that the unobservability of absolute scale constitutes a foundational principle of physics. Starting from the requirement that physical predictions must be invariant under rescalings of the action, we show that only phase-based quantities remain well defined. This requirement uniquely selects a complex amplitude description, leading directly to the structure of quantum mechanics, including linear superposition, Hilbert space, and the Born rule. Within this framework, the classical notion of action loses absolute meaning, and physical observables arise from invariant phase relations. Quantum mechanics is therefore not postulated, but emerges as the minimal consistent description of systems in which scale cannot be directly observed. The formal structure of quantum theory is shown to follow from this principle without additional axioms. We further demonstrate that the same principle implies the existence of a dynamical scale field, which governs the effective quantum scale and connects naturally to cosmological models with a time- dependent Planck mass. In this way, the structure of quantum mechanics and the large-scale dynamics of the Universe are linked through a common origin. This framework provides a unified perspective in which quantum behavior and cosmological evolution arise from a single underlying principle, suggesting a new approach to the relationship between fundamental physics and cosmology.

The Prohibition of Absolute Precision: A Unifying Principle Across Classical and Quantum Physics

Pengyuan Zhao

Classical physics is traditionally characterized as deterministic and founded on the real number continuum, while quantum mechanics is distinguished by its indeterminism and fundamental uncertainty relations. This apparent dichotomy, however, obscures a deeper continuity. We argue that both frameworks embody a common ontological principle: the physical prohibition of absolute precision. In classical physics, this prohibition is implicit, manifesting in information-theoretic bounds, the non-physicality of infinite-precision initial conditions (chaos theory), and the breakdown of determinism in singular configurations (Norton's dome). These phenomena reveal that the classical reliance on mathematical real numbers with infinite information content is an unphysical idealization. Quantum mechanics, by contrast, does not merely reflect this prohibition; it provides its precise quantitative expression. The Heisenberg uncertainty principle \(\sigma_{x}\sigma_{p}\geq \hbar /2\) and the non-commutative structure of observables are the exact mathematical formulation of the fact that physical information is fundamentally finite. The Planck constant \(\hbar\) is the universal scale that quantifies the minimal phase space volume—the “atom” of information—below which no further refinement is possible. Thus, quantum mechanics is not a separate theory but the completion of classical physics: it supplies the missing quantification of the principle that nature admits no infinite information density, and consequently, no absolutely precise physical quantities.

Quantum evolution equations through statistical methods: From fluctuations to nonlinearity

Miguel Fuentes, Sergio Curilef

Various phenomenological generalizations of the foundational equation in quantum physics have been proposed in prior studies. This paper presents a rigorous analytical derivation, grounded in first principles, that elucidates the impact of quantum fluctuations on the evolution of quantum systems. Furthermore, it demonstrates how this essential generalization can be achieved through statistical methods. The paper reveals that standard linear equations of quantum mechanics are recovered under specific limits of the parameter that governs nonlinear behavior. It establishes a direct correlation between the decay of quantum waves and the magnitude of these fluctuations. This connection provides critical insights into the dynamic properties of quantum systems and their susceptibility to underlying stochastic influences. Moreover, this work successfully formulates a comprehensive approach to a complete family of nonlinear quantum evolution equations. This framework expands our theoretical arsenal and enhances our ability to model and predict the behavior of complex quantum systems under various conditions. This research represents a significant advancement in our understanding of quantum mechanics, offering a more nuanced view of how quantum systems evolve under the influence of intrinsic fluctuations. It paves the way for future explorations into the stability, coherence, and dynamical evolution of quantum states, potentially impacting quantum computing, information processing, and other applications in quantum technology.
