Classical and Quantum Causality in Quantum Field Theory
Based on a number of experimentally verified physical observations, it is argued that the standard principles of quantum mechanics should be applied to the Universe as a whole. Thus, a paradigm is proposed in which the entire Universe is represented by a pure state wavefunction contained in a factorisable Hilbert space of enormous dimension, and where this statevector is developed by successive...
متن کاملClassical chaotic trajectories in quantum field theory
Trajectories in the space of the unitarily inequivalent representations of the canonical commutation relations are shown to be classical trajectories. Under convenient conditions, they may exhibit properties typical of chaotic behavior in classical nonlinear dynamics. Quantum noise in fluctuating random force in the system–environment coupling and system–environment entanglement is also discussed.
متن کاملRemarks on Causality in Relativistic Quantum Field Theory
It is shown that the correlations predicted by relativistic quantum field theory in locally normal states between projections in local von Neumann algebras A(V1),A(V2) associated with spacelike separated spacetime regions V1, V2 have a (Reichenbachian) common cause located in the union of the backward light cones of V1 and V2. Further comments on causality and independence in quantum field theo...
متن کاملClassical Electromagnetic Field Theory in the Presence of Magnetic Sources
Using two new well defined 4-dimensional potential vectors, we formulate the classical Maxwell’s field theory in a form which has manifest Lorentz covariance and SO(2) duality symmetry in the presence of magnetic sources. We set up a consistent Lagrangian for the theory. Then from the action principle we get both Maxwell’s equation and the equation of motion of a dyon moving in the electromagne...
متن کاملA classical perspective on nonlocality in quantum field theory
A classical statistical field theory hidden variable model for the quantized Klein-Gordon model is constructed that preserves relativistic signal locality and is relativistically covariant, but is at the same time relativistically nonlocal, paralleling the Hegerfeldt nonlocality of quantum theory. It is argued that the relativistic nonlocality of this model is acceptable to classical physics, b...
