Abstract: Superposition states are at the origin of many paradoxes in quantum mechanics. By unraveling the von Neumann equation for density matrices, we develop a superposition-free formulation of quantum mechanics. Stochastic quantum jumps are a key feature of this approach, in blatant contrast with the continuity of the deterministic Schr\"odinger equation. We explain how quantum entanglement arises. Our superposition-free formulation results offers a new perspective on quantum mechanics.

Quantum decoherence is the effect that bridges quantum physics to classical physics. We present some first-principle calculations in the Caldeira-Leggett model. We also discuss how to extend our work to general models by Monte Carlo calculations.

The Universe as a Learning System [0.0]
We propose that under general requirements, quantum systems follow a disrupted version of the gradient descent model. Such a learning process is possible only when we assume dissipation, i.e., that the quantum system is open.

Quantizing the Quantum Uncertainty [0.0]
We discuss the quantization of the quantum uncertainty as an operator acting on wave-functions over field space. We show how this spectrum appears in the value of the coupling of the effective conformal potential driving the evolution of extended Gaussian wave-packets. We conclude with an open question: is it possible to see experimental signatures of the quantization of the quantum uncertainty in non-relativistic physics?

We show how a time-independent, finite-dimensional quantum system can give rise to a linear instability corresponding to that in the classical system. An unstable quantum system has a richer spectrum and a much longer recurrence time than a stable quantum system.

It is argued that the Schr"odinger equation does not yield a correct description of the quantum-mechanical time evolution of states of isolated (open) systems featuring events. A precise general law for the time evolution of states replacing the Schr"odinger equation is formulated within the so-called ETH-Approach to Quantum Mechanics.

We propose a generalization of the Wasserstein distance of order 1 to the quantum states of $n$ qudits. The proposed distance is invariant with respect to permutations of the qudits and unitary operations acting on one qudit. We also propose a generalization of the Lipschitz constant to quantum observables.
