Abstract

It is argued that the world is a dissipative dynamic system, a phase flow of which is formed by conformally-symplectic mapping. The key assumption is that the concept of energy in microcosm makes sense only for the steady motions corresponding to quantum eigenstates. The constant, which determines the exponential phase volume contraction, is supposed to be a new universal constant, in addition to the speed of light and Planck constant. It is shown that statistical treatment of quantum objects as the ensembles concentrated on smooth connected attractors provides a simple explanation of stochastic behaviour of these objects as well as leads to a natural interpretation of the wave function, stationary Schrodinger equation, and scattering matrix. To validate the general hypotheses stated in the work, some physical models are presented. In particular, the models support the view that the inertial motion and quantum properties are basically determined by the vacuum as a dynamic subsystem. The matter-vacuum interaction is described formally by means of multivalued Hamilton function. A drawback of all these models is the non-locality of equations of motion stemming from the non-locality of variation of multivalued Hamilton function. This drawback can be overcome in the field theory using multivalued functionals with a local first variation opened by S. P. Novikov. Hence, a prospect of construction of the unified field theory in Einstein spirit, without a procedure of quantization is opened.
