Reciprocity theory and the geometrization of stochastic quantum mechanics
Eduard Prugovečki
pp. 179-213
In Part I of this monograph we have been striving to solve the localizability problem in relativistic quantum mechanics by viewing a quantum particle as a kind of probability "cloud" against a classical spacetime background. Our main aim was to arrive at a mathematical framework capable of a consistent physical interpretation due to the presence of bona fide probability densities and currents that transform in a covariant manner under the change of inertial frames. The epistemologically deeper question as to the existence of such frames, and, furthermore, as to the ultimate validity at the nuclear or even the subnuclear level of the pure classical description of spacetime in terms of a continuum — such as some differentiable manifold with a metric structure — had not been considered, or even posed.
