Bohmian mechanics contradicts quantum mechanics Arnold

چکیده
It is shown that, for a harmonic oscillator in the ground state, Bohmian mechanics and quantum mechanics predict values of opposite sign for certain time correlations. The discrepancy can be explained by the fact that Bohmian mechanics has no natural way to accomodate the Heisenberg picture, since the local expectation values that define the beables of the theory depend on the Heisenberg time being used to define the operators. Relations to measurement are discussed, too, and shown to leave no loophole for claiming that Bohmian mechanics reproduces all predictions of quantum mechanics exactly.

متن کاملThe impact of P/E ratio and price return on the stock market Bohmian quantum potential approach
Price return and P/E are two important factors for a lot of investors based on the latest studies by researchers in Tehran Stock market; however, it is expected that the price and the variation of that affect the return and the P/E of any given market as a complicated system. The Bohmian quantum mechanics used referring to the time correlation of return and P/E of the stock market under conside...
متن کاملمطالعه انتشار همدوس لپتونهای باردار ناشی از واپاشی پایون و W بوزون در مکانیک بوهمی
Although charged leptons, contrary to neutrinos, cannot oscillate, exploring whether a coherent superposition of charged lepton states can change to others during the propagation is an important problem in the neutrino oscillation theory. In this paper, we consider electrons and muons coming from the pions and W decays and study their propagation in relativistic Bohmian quantum mechanics. We f...
متن کاملIntroductory lecture on Bohmian mechanics
Bohmian mechanics is a theory of quantum phenomena based on a particle picture. On a fundamental level, it explains the world around us in terms of point particles that move on deterministic paths. When used to describe experimental situations, Bohmian mechanics yields the textbook formalism of quantum mechanics, and can therefore be considered as an explanation of the axioms of standard quantu...
متن کاملParsimony and Quantum Mechanics: An Analysis of the Copenhagen and Bohmian Interpretations
Parsimony, sometime referred to as simplicity, is an effective criterion of theory choice in the case of Quantum Mechanics. The Copenhagen and Bohmian interpretations are rival theories, with the Bohmian interpretation being more parsimonious. More parsimonious theories have a higher probability of being true than less parsimonious rivals. The Bohmian interpretation should thus be preferred on ...
