Contextuality in Classical Physics and Its Impact on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
Entropy, 2021 It is shown that the hallmark quantum phenomenon of contextuality is present in classical statistical mechanics (CSM). It is first shown that the occurrence of contextuality is equivalent to there being observables that can differentiate between pure and

Relaxation of Multitime Statistics in Quantum Systems [PDF]
Quantum, 2023 Equilibrium statistical mechanics provides powerful tools to understand physics at the macroscale. Yet, the question remains how this can be justified based on a microscopic quantum description. Here, we extend the ideas of pure state quantum statistical

A new statistical thermodynamic mechanism for quantum mechanics
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 A new quantum mechanics mechanism theory based on statistical mechanics is introduced. This theory is based on corresponding changes in the number of states with associated energy changes at the observer and observed occurring at observer 1) reset and 2)

Quantum Approach to Classical Statistical Mechanics [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2007 We present a new approach to study the thermodynamic properties of $d$-dimensional classical systems by reducing the problem to the computation of ground state properties of a $d$-dimensional quantum model. This classical-to-quantum mapping allows us to deal with standard optimization methods, such as simulated and quantum annealing, on an equal basis.

Quantum–Classical Mechanics: Statistical Approach to Molecular Collisions
Computer Sciences & Mathematics Forum, 2023 The chaotic dynamics of the transient state in molecular and physicochemical transitions in quantum–classical mechanics is considered in relation to the problem of redistribution of the vibrational–rotational energy of polyatomic molecules M and M1 in ...

Probabilistic cellular automata for interacting fermionic quantum field theories
Nuclear Physics B, 2021 A classical local cellular automaton can describe an interacting quantum field theory for fermions. We construct a simple classical automaton for a particular version of the Thirring model with imaginary coupling. This interacting fermionic quantum field

Quantum statistical mechanics of vortices
Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2022 Abstract The asymptotic partition function for quantized abelian Higgs vortices at high temperature T is found to leading and subleading order, and from this the equation of state of the vortex gas is derived, including the first quantum correction.

Quantum Mechanics: Statistical Balance Prompts Caution in Assessing Conceptual Implications
Entropy, 2022 Throughout quantum mechanics there is statistical balance, in the collective response of an ensemble of systems to differing measurement types. Statistical balance is a core feature of quantum mechanics, underlying quantum mechanical states, and not yet ...
