Abstract

It is well known that the action functional can be used to define classical, quantum, closed, and open dynamics in a generalization of the variational principle and in the path integral formalism in classical and quantum dynamics, respectively. These schemes are based on an unusual feature, a formal redoubling of the degrees of freedom. Several arguments to motivate the redoubling are put forward in classical and quantum mechanics to demonstrate that such a formalism is natural.

经典、量子、封闭和开放系统的作用

众所周知，在经典动力学和量子动力学的变分原理广义和路径积分形式中，作用函数可分别用于定义经典动力学、量子动力学、封闭动力学和开放动力学。这些方案基于一个不同寻常的特征，即自由度的形式加倍。我们在经典力学和量子力学中提出了一些加倍的论据，以证明这种形式主义是自然的。
