弯曲空间上的熵动力学

Entropic Dynamics on Curved Spaces

Shahid Nawaz, Mohammad Abedi, Ariel Caticha

摘要:

熵动力学是一个框架,其中量子理论是作为一个应用熵的推理方法。平坦空间上的熵动力学已被广泛研究。本文的目的是将$N$粒子的熵动力学推广到弯曲空间。重要的新特征是,粒子的位移不会像矢量那样变换,因为波动可以大到足以感受到曲率的影响。最后的结果是一个修正的薛定谔方程,其中通常的拉普拉斯算子被拉普拉斯-贝尔特拉米算子取代。

英文摘要:

Entropic dynamics is a framework in which quantum theory is derived as an application of entropic methods of inference. Entropic dynamics on flat spaces has been extensively studied. The objective of this paper is to extend the entropic dynamics of $N$ particles to curved spaces. The important new feature is that the displacement of a particle does not transform like a vector because fluctuations can be large enough to feel the effects of curvature. The final result is a modified Schrödinger equation in which the usual Laplacian is replaced by the Laplace-Beltrami operator.
