Quantum particles can be obtained from a classical probability distribution in phase space by a suitable coarse graining, whereby simultaneous classical information about position and momentum can be lost. For a suitable time evolution of the classical probabilities and choice of observables all features of a quantum particle in a potential follow from classical statistics. This includes interference, tunneling and the uncertainty relation.

  1. Quantum mechanics for classical transport equations

    Classical probabilistic transport equations are reformulated as quantum systems whose wave function obeys Schrödinger evolution and whose observables include non-commuting operators for statistical quantities.
