Beyond quantum / Andrei Khrennikov.

By: Publication details: Singapore : Pan Stanford Pub., c2014.Description: xvi, 373 p. : illustrations ; 24 cmISBN:
  • 9789814411738
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 530.12 23 K45
Contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. Conventional quantum theory : fundamentals -- 3. Fundamentals of prequantum classical statistical field theory -- 4. Prequantum dynamics from Hamiltonian equations on the infinite-dimensional phase space -- 5. Quantum mechanics as approximation of statistical mechanics of classical fields -- 6. Supplementary mathematical considerations -- 7. Mathematical presentation for composite systems -- 8. Phenomenological detection model -- 9. Quantum individual events -- References -- Index.
Summary: The present wave of interest in quantum foundations is caused by the tremendous development of quantum information science and its applications to quantum computing and quantum communication. It has become clear that some of the difficulties encountered in realizations of quantum information processing have roots at the very fundamental level. To solve such problems, quantum theory has to be reconsidered. This book is devoted to the analysis of the probabilistic structure of quantum theory, probing the limits of classical probabilistic representation of quantum phenomena.
