The "Origin'' of Quantum Mechanics > s.a. Determinism; logic;
physics ["visions"]; quantum
gravity and spacetime.
* Santamato's proposal:
Geodesics in Weyl gravity (two degrees of freedom) give rise to paths in the
pilot-wave view of quantum mechanics; The
amplitude and phase of the wave function (two degrees of freedom) are functions
of the connection; Similar to what happens in scale relativity.
* 't Hooft proposal: Loss of information due to dissipation in a microscopic,
classical deterministic system.
* Beyond quantum mechanics:
See Valentini's proposal of more general, "non-equilibrium" sub-quantum
systems, for which quantum mechanics emerges in a "thermal equilibrium
state".
* Phenomenology: Various
proposals predict violations of Born's rule.
