Quantum Evolution as a Square Root of the Master Equation

TL;DR

This paper explores the analogy between quantum evolution and master equations, emphasizing the stochastic nature of quantum processes to address interpretational difficulties in quantum mechanics.

Contribution

It introduces a novel perspective by framing quantum evolution as a square root of the master equation, highlighting its stochastic aspects.

Findings

Quantum evolution can be viewed as a square root of the master equation.

Stochastic interpretation helps clarify quantum mechanics concepts.

Addresses interpretational difficulties in quantum theory.

Abstract

The analogy between the quantum evolution and that of the master equation is explored. By stressing the stochastic nature of quantum evolution a number of conceptual difficulties in the interpretation of quantum mechanics are avoided.
