Bohmian Mechanics at Space-Time Singularities. I. Timelike Singularities


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We develop an extension of Bohmian mechanics to a curved background space-time containing a singularity. The present paper focuses on timelike singularities. We use the naked timelike singularity of the super-critical Reissner-Nordstrom geometry as an example. While one could impose boundary conditions at the singularity that would prevent the particles from falling into the singularity, we are interested here in the case in which particles have positive probability to hit the singularity and get annihilated. The wish for reversibility, equivariance, and the Markov property then dictates that particles must also be created by the singularity, and indeed dictates the rate at which this must occur. That is, a stochastic law prescribes what comes out of the singularity. We specify explicit equations of a non-rigorous model involving an interior-boundary condition on the wave function at the singularity, which can be used also in oth
