Abstract: We re-use some original ideas of de~Broglie, Schr\"odiger, Dirac and Feynman to revise the ensemble interpretation of wave function in quantum mechanics. To this end we introduce coherence (auto-concordance) of ensembles of quantum trajectories in the space-time. The coherence condition accounts phases proportional to classical action, which are in foundation of the Feynman path integral technique. Therefore, our interpretation is entirely based on well-known and tested concepts and methods of wave mechanics. Similarly to other ensemble interpretations our approach allows us to avoid all problems and paradoxes related to wave function collapse during a measurement process. Another consequence is that no quantum computation or quantum cryptography method will ever work if it assumes that a particular q-bit represents the entire wave function.

A computational test of quantum contextuality, and even simpler proofs of quantumness [43.25018099464869]
We show that an arbitrary contextuality game can be compiled into an operational "test of contextuality" involving a single quantum device. Our work can be seen as using cryptography to enforce spatial separation within subsystems of a single quantum device.

On the Path Integral Formulation of Wigner-Dunkl Quantum Mechanics [0.0]
Feynman's path integral approach is studied in the framework of the Wigner-Dunkl deformation of quantum mechanics. We look at the Euclidean time evolution and the related Dunkl process.

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.

Quantum dissipation and the virial theorem [22.1682776279474]
We study the celebrated virial theorem for dissipative systems, both classical and quantum. The non-Markovian nature of the quantum noise leads to novel bath-induced terms in the virial theorem. We also consider the case of an electrical circuit with thermal noise and analyze the role of non-Markovian noise in the context of the virial theorem.

The Wave Function Cannot be a Real Wave Then Can We Speak of an Ontology of Particles [0.0]
It is shown that the assumption that the wave function is a real wave entails a contradiction with the predictions of the quantum mechanics. The article concentrates on interpretations which conjecture that the reality that moves in our apparatuses is particles, and they move under the constraints of the wave function.

Correspondence Between the Energy Equipartition Theorem in Classical Mechanics and its Phase-Space Formulation in Quantum Mechanics [62.997667081978825]
In quantum mechanics, the energy per degree of freedom is not equally distributed. We show that in the high-temperature regime, the classical result is recovered.

A realistic model for completing Quantum Mechanics [0.0]
In Copenhagen the physical objects and the experimental results can be described only in a macroscopic language. The measurement problem is at the center of these difficulties, mainly because it requires the introduction of the reduction process of the wave function. We build up and propose a model which is able to solve the measurement problem and all the other difficulties which, in a way or in another, are related to it.

The Measurement Process in Relational Quantum Mechanics [0.0]
Motivated by Breuer's claim that it is impossible for an observer to distinguish all states of a system in which it is contained, wave function collapse is tied to self observation in the Schmidt biorthonormal decomposition of entangled systems. This approach provides quantum mechanics in general and relational quantum mechanics in particular with a clean, well motivated explanation of the measurement process and wave function collapse.

The Quantum Wasserstein Distance of Order 1 [16.029406401970167]
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.

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.
