The statistical mechanics of quantum-classical systems with holonomic constraints is formulated rigorously by unifying the classical Dirac bracket and the quantum-classical bracket in matrix form. The resulting Dirac quantum-classical theory, which conserves the holonomic constraints exactly, is then used to formulate time evolution and statistical mechanics. The correct momentum-jump approxima...

We present a path integral formalism to obtain the statistical mechanics transfer matrix of the system which leads to a straightforward mapping between the quantum problem and an e€ective classical lattice system. Thus, the quantum criticality of atomic and molecular systems can be studied by the standard statistical mechanics methods. We illustrate this general technique by presenting detailed...

The main purpose of this tutorial is to elucidate in details what should be meant by ensemble of states in quantum mechanics, and to properly address the problem of discriminating, exactly or approximately, two diÆerent ensembles. To this aim we review the notion and the definition of quantum ensemble as well as its relationships with the concept of statistical operator in quantum mechanics. We...

The quantum mechanical concepts of states and operators arise naturally from the question how expectation values of observables can be computed in classical statistical systems where only incomplete local information about the probability distribution is available. The notions of evolution and time are related to the translation of the available information between neighboring local regions. Th...

The upside-down simple harmonic oscillator system is studied in the contexts of quantum mechanics and classical statistical mechanics. It is shown that in order to study in a simple manner the creation and decay of a physical system by ways of Gamow vectors we must formulate the theory in a time-asymmetric fashion, namely using two different rigged Hilbert spaces to describe states evolving tow...

There are many claims that quantum mechanics plays a key role in the origin and/or operation of biological organisms. The mechanism of the meiosis, mitosis and gametes life cycle from the view-point of quantum for human has been represented. The quantum gates have been used to simulate these processes for the first time. The reason of several hundred sperms has been explained in the male too

The list of basic axioms of quantum mechanics as it was formulated by von Neumann includes only the mathematical formalism of the Hilbert space and its statistical interpretation. We point out that such an approach is too general to be considered as the foundation of quantum mechanics. In particular in this approach any finitedimensional Hilbert space describes a quantum system. Though such a t...

We show that the probabilistic formalism of QM can be obtained as a special projection of classical statistical mechanics for systems with an infinite number of degrees of freedom. Such systems can be interpreted as classical fields. Thus in our approach QM is a projection of (prequantum) classical statistical field theory (PCSFT). This projection is based on the Taylor expansion of classical p...
