Abstract

Description

We introduce functional degrees of freedom by a new gauge principle related to the phase of the wave functional. Thereby, quantum mechanical systems are seen as dissipatively embedded part of a nonlinear classical structure producing universal correlations. There are a fundamental length and an entropy/area parameter, besides standard couplings. For states that are sufficiently spread over configuration space, quantum field theory is recovered.
12 pages. To appear in the Festschrift "A Sense of Beauty in Physics" dedicated to Adriano Di Giacomo on occasion of his 70th birthday
