The Spacetime Approach to Quantum Mechanics ∗
Feynman’s sum-over-histories formulation of quantum mechanics is reviewed as an independent statement of quantum theory in spacetime form. It is different from the usual Schrödinger-Heisenberg formulation that utilizes states on spacelike surfaces because it assigns probabilities to different sets of alternatives. In a sum-over-histories formulation, alternatives at definite moments of time are...
متن کاملMacroscopic quantum mechanics in a classical spacetime.
We apply the many-particle Schrödinger-Newton equation, which describes the coevolution of a many-particle quantum wave function and a classical space-time geometry, to macroscopic mechanical objects. By averaging over motions of the objects' internal degrees of freedom, we obtain an effective Schrödinger-Newton equation for their centers of mass, which can be monitored and manipulated at quant...
متن کاملA Qualitative Approach to Structural Mechanics
In the field of Civil Engineering, Knowledge Engineering techniques have been applied to safety evaluation, damage assessment and design of structures, but applications are usually limited to specific cases . In this paper, a general approach to structural mechanic problems, based on Qualitative Physics, is discussed, providing the way to model and reason about a wide class of structures as phy...
متن کاملDuality, Spacetime and Quantum Mechanics
QUANTUM MECHANICS T purpose of this article is to describe some themes in theoretical physics that developed independently for many years, in some cases for decades, and then converged rather suddenly beginning around 1994—95. The convergence produced an upheaval sometimes called "the second superstring revolution." It is as significant in its own way as "the first superstring revolution," the ...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics on Spacetime I: Spacetime State Realism
What ontology does realism about the quantum state suggest? The main extant view in contemporary philosophy of physics is wave-function realism. We elaborate the sense in which wave-function realism does provide an ontological picture; and defend it from certain objections that have been raised against it. However, there are good reasons to be dissatisfied with wave-function realism, as we go o...
