Mathematical Principles of Dynamic Systems and the Foundations of Quantum Physics
by Eric Tesse
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 88
Description:
This article will take up the question of what underlies the quantum formalism, whether it can be derived from simpler mathematical structures, and if so, what physical properties a system must possess in order for the formalism to hold. Of particular interest will be the question of determining the set of allowed experiments.
