Title: The guidance theorem of de Broglie
Authors: Aur\'elien Drezet
Abstract summary: We analyze and rederive the so called guidance theorem which is a key element of the full theory. We explain why de Broglie rejected the pilot wave interpretation and advocated the double solution.

Abstract: We review some aspects of the double solution theory proposed by de Broglie at the beginning of the quantum era (i.e., in the period 1924-28). We specifically analyze and rederive the so called guidance theorem which is a key element of the full theory. We compare the double solution approach to the most known pilot-wave interpretation, also known as de Broglie-Bohm or Bohmian mechanics. We explain why de Broglie rejected the pilot wave interpretation and advocated the double solution. We also discuss some philosophical issues related to difference of strategies between de Broglie on the one side and Bohm on the other side.

A time (anti)symmetric approach to the double solution theory [0.0]
We show that pulses composed of a difference between a retarded wave and an advanced wave are capable of following quantum trajectories predicted by de Broglie-Bohm theory (also known as Bohmian mechanics) Our theory reproduces the main results of orthodox quantum mechanics and, unlike Bohmian theory, is local in the Bell sense.

Did Louis de Broglie miss the discovery of the Schrödinger equation? [0.0]

Whence Nonlocality? Removing spooky action at a distance from the de Broglie Bohm pilot-wave theory using a time-symmetric version of de Broglie double solution [0.0]
We extend the old attempt made by Louis de broglie for interpreting quantum mechanics in realistic terms, namely the double solution. We are able to justify wave-particle duality and to explain the violations of Bell's inequalities. We reinterpret the nonlocal action at a distance presents in the pilot-wave theory.

Double-scale theory [77.34726150561087]
We present a new interpretation of quantum mechanics, called the double-scale theory. It is based on the simultaneous existence of two wave functions in the laboratory reference frame. The external wave function corresponds to a field that pilots the center-of-mass of the quantum system. The internal wave function corresponds to the interpretation proposed by Edwin Schr"odinger.

Penrose dodecahedron, Witting configuration and quantum entanglement [55.2480439325792]
A model with two entangled spin-3/2 particles based on geometry of dodecahedron was suggested by Roger Penrose. The model was later reformulated using so-called Witting configuration with 40 rays in 4D Hilbert space. Two entangled systems with quantum states described by Witting configurations are discussed in presented work.

Topological Quantum Gravity of the Ricci Flow [62.997667081978825]
We present a family of topological quantum gravity theories associated with the geometric theory of the Ricci flow. First, we use BRST quantization to construct a "primitive" topological Lifshitz-type theory for only the spatial metric. We extend the primitive theory by gauging foliation-preserving spacetime symmetries.

External and internal wave functions: de Broglie's double-solution theory? [77.34726150561087]
We propose an interpretative framework for quantum mechanics corresponding to the specifications of Louis de Broglie's double-solution theory. The principle is to decompose the evolution of a quantum system into two wave functions. For Schr"odinger, the particles are extended and the square of the module of the (internal) wave function of an electron corresponds to the density of its charge in space.
