This article is the second in a series of two presenting the Scale Relativistic approach to non-differentiability in mechanics and its relation to quantum mechanics. Here, we show Schroedingers equation to be a reformulation of Newtons fundamental relation of dynamics as generalized to non-differentiable geometries in the first paper cite{paper1}. It motivates an alternative interpretation of the other axioms of standard quantum mechanics in a coherent picture. This exercise validates the Scale Relativistic approach and, at the same time, it allows to identify macroscopic chaotic systems considered at time scales exceeding their horizon of predictability as candidates in which to search for quantum-like structuring or behavior.

This article motivates and presents the scale relativistic approach to non-differentiability in mechanics and its relation to quantum mechanics. It stems from the scale relativity proposal to extend the principle of relativity to resolution-scale transformations, which leads to considering non-differentiable dynamical paths. We first define a complex scale-covariant time-differential operator and show that mechanics of non-differentiable paths is implemented in the same way as classical mechanics but with the replacement of the time derivative and velocity with the time-differential operator and associated complex velocity. With this, the generalized form of Newtons fundamental relation of dynamics is shown to take the form of a Langevin equation in the case of stationary motion characterized by a null average classical velocity. The numerical integration of the Langevin equation in the case of a harmonic oscillator taken as an example reveals the same statistics as the stationary solutions of the Schrodinger equation for the same problem. This motivates the rest of the paper, which shows Schrodingers equation to be a reformulation of Newtons fundamental relation of dynamics as generalized to non-differentiable geometries and leads to an alternative interpretation of the other axioms of standard quantum mechanics in a coherent picture. This exercise validates the scale relativistic approach and, at the same time, it allows to envision macroscopic chaotic systems observed at resolution time-scales exceeding their horizon of predictability as candidates in which to search for quantum-like dynamics and structures.
Applying the resolution-scale relativity principle to develop a mechanics of non-differentiable dynamical paths, we find that, in one dimension, stationary motion corresponds to an Ito process driven by the solutions of a Riccati equation. We verify that the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation is solved for a probability density corresponding to the squared modulus of the solution of the Schrodinger equation for the same problem. Inspired by the treatment of the one-dimensional case, we identify a generalization to time dependent problems in any number of dimensions. The Ito process is then driven by a function which is identified as establishing the link between non-differentiable dynamics and standard quantum mechanics. This is the basis for the scale relativistic interpretation of standard quantum mechanics and, in the case of applications to chaotic systems, it leads us to identify quantum-like states as characterizing the entire system rather than the motion of its individual constituents.
The main purpose of the paper is an essentially probabilistic analysis of relativistic quantum mechanics. It is based on the assumption that whenever probability distributions arise, there exists a stochastic process that is either responsible for temporal evolution of a given measure or preserves the measure in the stationary case. Our departure point is the so-called Schr{o}dinger problem of probabilistic evolution, which provides for a unique Markov stochastic interpolation between any given pair of boundary probability densities for a process covering a fixed, finite duration of time, provided we have decided a priori what kind of primordial dynamical semigroup transition mechanism is involved. In the nonrelativistic theory, including quantum mechanics, Feyman-Kac-like kernels are the building blocks for suitable transition probability densities of the process. In the standard free case (Feynman-Kac potential equal to zero) the familiar Wiener noise is recovered. In the framework of the Schr{o}dinger problem, the free noise can also be extended to any infinitely divisible probability law, as covered by the L{e}vy-Khintchine formula. Since the relativistic Hamiltonians $| abla |$ and $sqrt {-triangle +m^2}-m$ are known to generate such laws, we focus on them for the analysis of probabilistic phenomena, which are shown to be associated with the relativistic wave (DAlembert) and matter-wave (Klein-Gordon) equations, respectively. We show that such stochastic processes exist and are spatial jump processes. In general, in the presence of external potentials, they do not share the Markov property, except for stationary situations. A concrete example of the pseudodifferential Cauchy-Schr{o}dinger evolution is analyzed in detail. The relativistic covariance of related wave
In this article, we discard the bra-ket notation and its correlative definitions, given by Paul Dirac. The quantum states are only described by the wave functions. The fundamental concepts and definitions in quantum mechanics is simplified. The operator, wave functions and square matrix are represented in the same expression which directly corresponds to the system of equations without additional introduction of the matrix representation of operator. It can make us to convert the operator relations into the matrix relations. According to the relations between the matrices, the matrix elements will be determined. Furthermore, the first order differential equations will be given to find the solution of equations. As a result, we unified the descriptions of the matrix mechanics and the wave mechanics.
