Semiclassical interpretation of microscopic processes

There are three upper limits (2, 2.sqrt{2}, 2.sqrt{3}) of the Bell operator corresponding to different physical concepts: classical, hidden-variable and quantum-mechanical. Only the classical concept corresponding to the lowest limit has been excluded by experimental data, while the other two should be regarded as acceptable for the interpretation of EPR experiments and all microscopic processes. A corresponding hidden-variable or semiclassical model (based on the extended Hilbert space) will be proposed and shortly described.

Quantum mechanics and irreversible time flow

Time flow has been embodied in time-dependent Schroedinger equation representing one of the foundations of quantum mechanics. Pauli's criticism (1933) has, however, indicated that the assumptions concerning representation Hilbert space have led to some contradictions. Many authors have tried to solve this discrepancy practically without any actual success. The reason may be seen in that two different problems have been mixed: the problem of Pauli (being more general and more important) and non-unitarity of exponential phase operator of linear harmonic oscillator introduced by Dirac, as demonstrated in 1964. The problem will be discussed in a broad historical context and a solution based on extension of representation Hilbert space will be shown.

Three-dimensional harmonic oscillator and time evolution in quantum mechanics

The problem of defining time (or phase) operator for three-dimensional harmonic oscillator has been analyzed. A new formula for this operator has been derived. The results have been used to demonstrate a possibility of representing quantum-mechanical time evolution in the framework of an extended Hilbert space structure. Physical interpretation of the extended structure has been discussed shortly, too.

Quantum mechanics and EPR paradox

The orthodox quantum mechanics has been commonly regarded as being supported decisively by the polarization EPR experiments, in which Bell's inequalities have been violated. The given conclusion has been based, however, on several mistakes that have not been yet commonly known and sufficiently analyzed. The whole problem will be newly discussed and a corresponding solution will be proposed.

Realistic theory of microscopic phenomena; a new solution of hidden-variable problem

It has been shown that quantum paradoxes have followed from one special assumption, i.e., from attributing basic physical meaning to Hamiltonian eigenfunctions and representing all physical states by vectors of the Hilbert space spanned on these eigenfunctions. However, any paradoxical properties disappear if the physical states are represented by vectors from the extended Hilbert space on which the scattering theory of Lax and Phillips has been based. On the other side, all stationary characteristics and experimentally verified quantum-mechanical predictions remain the same. The extended mathematical model is also in full agreement with results of EPR experiments, if one takes into account that a further assumption (in addition to locality condition) is involved in derivation of Bell's inequalities as shown recently (see: quant-ph/9808005).

Are quantum teleportation and cryptography predicted by quantum mechanics?

It has been shown that the predictions of some new phenomena (e.g., teleportation and cryptography) are based on some assumptions added to the quantum-mechanical model or modifying some of its basic axioms. The hitherto experiments presented as a support of the mentioned phenomena may be hardly regarded as sufficient, as they may be interpreted alternatively on the basis of simple interference processes.

Locality problem, Bell's inequalities and EPR experiments

The question has been solved whether Bell's inequalities cover all possible kinds of hidden-variable theories. It has been shown that the given nequalities can be hardly derived when the changing space position of photon-pair source together with the microscopic space structure of measuring devices are taken into account; and when corresponding impact parameters (i.e., exact impact points) of photons in individual measuring devices (polarizers) influence measured values, in addition to usually considered characteristics.
