Foundation of quantum mechanics from the principle of relativity

چکیده

We briefly recall the main steps by which we suggest to found quantum mechanics and gauge field theories on the principle of relativity, once it is extended to scale transformations of the reference system. The wave functions are constructed as consequences of the nondifferentiability of a continuous space-time, while the Schrödinger and Dirac equations are obtained from its geodesics equations. In this framework, the gauge fields emerge as manifestation of the fractal geometry, and the gauge charges as the conservative quantities which are built from its internal symmetries.

Foundation of quantum mechanics and gauge field theories in scale relativity∗

We have suggested to extend the principle of relativity to scale transformations of the reference systems, then to apply this “principle of scale relativity” to a description of the space-time geometry generalized in terms of a nondifferentiable (therefore fractal) continuum. In such a framework, one can derive from first principles the main postulates of quantum mechanics. The basic tools of q...

کوانتش گرانش و بررسی هندسی مکانیک کوانتمی

  We elaborate on some recent results on a solution of the Hilbert-space problem in minisuperspace quantum cosmology and discuss the consequences of making the (geometry of the) Hilbert space of ordinary nonrelativistic quantum systems time-dependent. The latter reveals a remarkable similarity between Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity.

A Foundational Principle for Quantum Mechanics

In contrast to the theories of relativity, quantum mechanics is not yet based on a generally accepted conceptual foundation . It is proposed here that the missing principle may be identified through the observation that all knowledge in physics has to be expressed in propositions and that therefore the most elementary system represents the truth value of one proposition , i.e., it carries just ...

Space-time, relativity and quantum mechanics: In search of a deeper connection

It has been shown that the Lorentz transformations in special relativity can be derived in terms of the principle of relativity and certain properties of space and time such as homogeneity. In this paper, we argue that the free Schrödinger equation in quantum mechanics may also be regarded as a consequence of the homogeneity of space and time and the principle of relativity when assuming linear...

The Principle of Relativity: From Ungar’s Gyrolanguage for Physics to Weaving Computation in Mathematics

‎This paper extends the scope of algebraic computation based on a non standard $times$ to ‎the more basic case of a non standard $+$‎, ‎where standard means associative ‎and commutative‎. ‎Two physically meaningful examples of a non standard $+$ are ‎provided by the observation of motion in Special Relativity‎, ‎from either ‎outside (3D) or inside (2D or more)‎, ‎We revisit the ``gyro''-theory ...
