熵动力学:没有机制的力学

Entropic Dynamics: Mechanics without Mechanism

Ariel Caticha

摘要:

熵动力学(英语:Entropic Dynamics)是一个框架,在这个框架中,诸如物理学中出现的动力学定律被推导为熵推理方法的应用。没有基本的作用原理被假定。相反,动力学是由熵驱动的,受到反映与手头问题相关的信息的约束。在这项工作中,我回顾了量子理论的推导过程,但熵动力学是基于具有普遍适用性的推理方法,这一事实表明,将这些方法应用于物理学以外的领域是可能的。

英文摘要:

Entropic Dynamics is a framework in which dynamical laws such as those that arise in physics are derived as an application of entropic methods of inference. No underlying action principle is postulated. Instead, the dynamics is driven by entropy subject to constraints reflecting the information that is relevant to the problem at hand. In this work I review the derivation of quantum theory but the fact that Entropic Dynamics is based on inference methods that are of universal applicability suggests that it may be possible to adapt these methods to fields other than physics.
