Bohmian Trajectories as the Foundation of Quantum Mechanics

Sheldon Goldstein, Roderich Tumulka, Nino Zanghi

Bohmian trajectories have been used for various purposes, including the numerical simulation of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation and the visualization of time-dependent wav…

On the Approach to Thermal Equilibrium of Macroscopic Quantum Systems

Sheldon Goldstein, Joel L. Lebowitz, Christian Mastrodonato +2

We consider an isolated, macroscopic quantum system. Let H be a micro-canonical "energy shell," i.e., a subspace of the system's Hilbert space spanned by the (finitely) many energy…

Bohmian Mechanics and Quantum Information

Sheldon Goldstein

Many recent results suggest that quantum theory is about information, and that quantum theory is best understood as arising from principles concerning information and information p…

Normal Typicality and von Neumann's Quantum Ergodic Theorem

Sheldon Goldstein, Joel L. Lebowitz, Christian Mastrodonato +2

We discuss the content and significance of John von Neumann's quantum ergodic theorem (QET) of 1929, a strong result arising from the mere mathematical structure of quantum mechani…

What Does the Free Will Theorem Actually Prove?

Sheldon Goldstein, Daniel V. Tausk, Roderich Tumulka +1

Conway and Kochen have presented a "free will theorem" (Notices of the AMS 56, pgs. 226-232 (2009)) which they claim shows that "if indeed we humans have free will, then [so do] el…

Bohmian Mechanics

Detlef Duerr, Sheldon Goldstein, Roderich Tumulka +1

Bohmian mechanics is a theory about point particles moving along trajectories. It has the property that in a world governed by Bohmian mechanics, observers see the same statistics…
