ANISOTROPIC QUANTUM COSMOLOGICAL MODELS: A DISCREPANCY BETWEEN MANY-WORLDS AND dBB INTERPRETATIONS
نویسنده
چکیده
In the isotropic quantum cosmological perfect fluid model, the initial singularity can be avoided, while the classical behaviour is recovered asymptotically. We verify if initial anisotropies can also be suppressed in a quantum version of a classical anisotropic model where gravity is coupled to a perfect fluid. Employing a Bianchi I cosmological model, we obtain a ”Schrödinger-like” equation where the matter variables play de role of time. This equation has a hyperbolic signature. It can be explicitly solved and a wave packet is constructed. The expectation value of the scale factor, evaluated in the spirit of the many-worlds interpretation, reveals an isotropic Universe. On the other hand, the bohmian trajectories indicate the existence of anisotropies. This is an example where the Bohm-de Broglie and the many-worlds interpretations are not equivalent. It is argued that this inequivalence is due to the hyperbolic structure of the ”Schrödinger-like” equation. PACS number(s): 04.20.Cv., 04.20.Me

Vortex interaction, chaos and quantum probabilities
– The motion of a single vortex is able to originate chaos in the quantum trajectories defined in Bohm’s interpretation of quantum mechanics. In this letter, we show that this is also the case in the general situation, in which many interacting vortices exist. This result gives support to those studies in which the Born’s probability rule is considered from the point of view of a thermal analog...

Third generation (3G) cellular standards has seen many changes in the design specifications during its evolution. There also exist multiple standards, CDMA2000 and WCDMA, which have different specifications for implementing the digital baseband (DBB) system. Changes in a standard during the development of systemon-a-chip (SoC) can be difficult to accommodate or can make the system less efficien...
متن کاملFACILITATING REAL-TIME INTERCONTINENTAL COLLABORATION with EMERGENT GRID TECHNOLOGIES: Dancing Beyond Boundaries
Up to this point, remote collaboration over high-speed networks has typically consisted of “talking heads” occasionally embellished with PowerPoint presentations. We herein present a working system that has enabled a much higher level of interaction and collaboration. Using the Access Grid and Internet2, a ten-minute work of modern dance and music was created in three days with a team of more t...
متن کاملDynamic Branch&Bound, an optimization counterpart for dynamic backtracking
Here we show how the idea of dynamic backtracking can be applied to branch and bound optimization. This is done by exploiting the concept of valued nogood introduced in [6, 16, 17]. However, simple replacement of nogoods with valued nogoods does not lead to a correct algorithm. We show that a way to achieve correctness is to use at each variable a separate nogood storage for each position that ...
متن کاملOptogenetic Release of ACh Induces Rhythmic Bursts of Perisomatic IPSCs in Hippocampus
Acetylcholine (ACh) influences a vast array of phenomena in cortical systems. It alters many ionic conductances and neuronal firing behavior, often by regulating membrane potential oscillations in populations of cells. Synaptic inhibition has crucial roles in many forms of oscillation, and cholinergic mechanisms regulate both oscillations and synaptic inhibition. In vitro investigations using b...
