Born’s Principle, Action-Reaction Problem, and Arrow of Time

  • Published:
Foundations of Physics Letters

Abstract

We try to obtain Born’s principle as a result of a subquantum heat death, using classical ℌ-theorem and the definition of a proper quantum ℌ-theorem, within the framwork of Bohm’s theory. We shall show the possibility of solving the problem of action-reaction asymmetry present in Bohm’s theory and the arrow of time problem in our procedure.
