Narrow Results

Fractals are measurable metric sets with non-integer Hausdorff dimensions. If electric and magnetic fields are defined on fractal and do not exist outside of fractal in Euclidean space, then we can use the fractional generalization of the integral Maxwell equations. The fractional integrals are considered as approximations of integrals on fractals. We prove that fractal can be described as a specific medium.

This paper recalls and shows the origin of the transformation laws of the components of classical and quantum fields. They are considered from the "standard" and fiber bundle point of view. The results are applied to the derivation of the Heisenberg relations in quite general setting, in particular, in the fiber bundle approach. All conclusions are illustrated in a case of transformations induced by the Poincaré group.

This paper is a contribution to the project "emergent quantum mechanics" unifying a variety of attempts to treat quantum mechanics (QMs) as emergent from other theories pretending on finer descriptions of quantum phenomena. More concretely it is about an attempt to model detection probabilities predicted by QM for single photon states by using classical random fields interacting with detectors of the threshold type. Continuous field model, prequantum classical statistical field theory (PCSFT), was developed in recent years and its predictions about probabilities and correlations match well with QM. The main problem is to develop the corresponding measurement theory which would describe the transition from continuous fields to discrete events, "clicks of detectors". Some success was achieved and the click-probabilities for quantum observables can be derived from PCSFT by modeling interaction of fields with the threshold type detectors. However, already for the coefficient of second-order coherence g²(0) calculations are too complicated and only an estimation of g²(0) was obtained. In this paper, we present results of numerical simulation based on PCSFT and modeling of interaction with threshold type detectors. The "prequantum random field" interacting with a detector is modeled as the Brownian motion in the space of classical fields (Wiener process in complex Hilbert space). Simulation for g²(0) shows that this coefficient approaches zero with increase of the number of detections.
