These rules force them to loose some properties usually assumed for this kind of variables. We demonstrate that stochastic processes driven by these random sources must be described using an probability amplitude formalism in a close resemblance to Quantum Theory. This fact shows, for the first time, that probability amplitudes are a general concept and is not exclusive to the formalism of Quantum Theory. Application of these rules to a noisy, one-dimensional motion, leds to a probability structure homomorphic to Quantum Mechanics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-03-06T14:47:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum analogues", "quantum theory", "probability structure homomorphic", "probability amplitude formalism", "stochastic processes driven" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003quant.ph..3029F" } } }
