Doug's approach to this page middle~includes and Bohmesque enfolds many implicate quantum~aspects of a variety of memeos, including:

All of the above, and more, benchmarks Doug's own opus solipsistically (an ultimate self's holographic perspectives similar Hesse's efforts in Steppenwolf) referred Quantonics.

Doug's need to meticulously describe and compare classical notions of equilibrium and semasiological [enthy]memeos of quantum~equilibria mandates his endeavor here. Doug intends to accomplish this in fresh lightings provided by [f]lux of quantum~remediation.

Doug has chosen a single paragraph as basis for this work. It is in Chapter VII of P&S' Order Out of Chaos (OOoC) section-titled 'The Temporal Evolution of Quantum Systems.'

Doug quotes that paragraph entirely, and then parses it into smaller text segments for purposes of apropos detail comparison of classical (notional) and quantum (memeotic) hermeneutics of them.

Let's preview said paragraph in its original entirety:

Doug transcribed above paragraph from Prigogine and Stengers' Order Out of Chaos, p. 226 of 349 total pages including index, a Bantam Paperback, April, 1984.

"We shall now move on to discuss the temporal evolution of quantum systems. As in classical mechanics, the Hamiltonian plays a fundamental role. As we have seen, in quantum mechanics it is replaced by the Hamiltonian operator Hop. This energy operator plays a central role: on the one hand, its eigenvalues correspond to the energy levels; on the other hand, as in classical mechanics, the Hamiltonian operator determines the temporal evolution of the system. In quantum mechanics the role played by the canonical equation of classical mechanics is taken by the Schrödinger equation, which expresses the time evolution of the function characterizing the quantum state as the result of the application of the operator Hop on the wave function (there are, of course, other formulations, which we cannot describe here). The term 'wave function' has been chosen to emphasize once again the wave particle duality so fundamental in all of quantum physics. is a wave amplitude that evolves according to a particle type of equation determined by the Hamiltonian. Schrödinger's equation, like the canonical equation of classical physics, expresses a reversible and deterministic evolution. The reversible change of wave function corresponds to a reversible motion along a trajectory. If the wave function at a given instant is known, Schrödinger's equation allows it to be calculated for any previous or subsequent instant. From this viewpoint, the situation is strictly similar to that in classical mechanics. This is because the uncertainty relations of quantum mechanics do not include time. Time remains a number, not an operator, and only operators can appear in Heisenberg's uncertainty relations."

Doug's efforts here take us even further into a pool of obtainable understanding of omnifferencings among classical equilibrium and quantum~equilibrium.

We have much to do here, and it will abundantly apply directly to Doug's year~long plus efforts in his QELR of equilibrium.

Keep in mind that all this extensive work is prerequisite for Doug's continuing Chapter 4 of his online FEP Economic Value Feuilleton Chautauqua textbook.

"We shall now move on to discuss the temporal evolution of quantum systems. As in classical mechanics, the Hamiltonian plays a fundamental role. As we have seen, in quantum mechanics it is replaced by the Hamiltonian operator Hop.

Basic issues, classical vis-à-vis quantum include these:

  • Linguistically definite articles [e.g., 'the'] aren't permitted in real quantum language systems. Why? Macroscopic quantum~uncertainty.
  • Unitemporality [i.e., One Time Fits All, OTFA] isn't valid in real quantum systems and languages which describe them.
  • Quantum~systems æv¤lve quintessentially via ubiquitous scintillation of quanta. Therefore all quantum~evolution issi quantum~uncertain (classically indeterminate). Quantonics HotMeme™ "Quantum~evolution requires its adherents to gnostically embrace indetermination." Quantonics HotMeme
  • Classical Hamiltonian logic depends upon classical commutation which is invalid in real quantum systems. Indeed all classical 'equivalence relations' are invalid in real quantum systems.
  • Classical operator mathematics are formal-mechanical and dialectical and thus their classical-evolutionary 'states' are scalars. This whole system of classical thingking is bogus, ersatz, facile, faux, pseudo, inutile, deceit, etc.

A classical notion of Hamiltonian Operator may now be remediated using a CeodE 2012 graphic image Doug created called EWing Ensembles. See that graphic.

Here is relevant text nearby that graphic: "Following Prigogine and Stengers' lead, Doug's graphic is a kind of quantum Hamiltonian, but non static,
dynamically everywherings-everywhenings quantum~fractal~recursive. See pp. 220-221 out of 349 total, Order Out of Chaos."

Recursion labels on that graphic represent quantum~fractal~hologra[[m][ph][il]]ic~stindyanic interrelationshipings among EWings composing ensemble qwfs. Those pluralities of comcurrent evolutionings imply indetermination (uncertainty), noncommutation, non identity, non equivalence, absence of any notions of 'scalar' holds-still-isms.

They imply presence of massively heterogeneous and coobsfective chance~choice~changings borne of perpetual quantization~scintillationings at each recursion instance.

Dialectics cannot offer any exegeses of pure quantum~dynamicity. State cannot explain: choice, chance, nor change.

This energy operator plays a central role: on the one hand, its eigenvalues correspond to the energy levels; on the other hand, as in classical mechanics, the Hamiltonian operator determines the temporal evolution of the system.

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

  • Classical eigenvalues are scalars. Often they are distilled to bivalency [zero or one]. Scalar and bivalent 'values' are of n¤ Value in real quantum~systems.
  • Classical notions of 'energy levels' are simply bogus in real quantum systems since quantum~energy is flux, quantized and absolutely changing and evolving flux which may n¤t be classically sampled and held as ideally, Platonically stoppable state.
  • Hamiltonian 'operators' do n¤t classically-determine anything. Quantum reality is macroscopically uncertain and in n¤ way is or can be classically deterministic. Quantum reality scintillates quanta which massively SOrON ensemble~select whatings happenings nextings [Peircean] abductively based upon evolving energy wellings in said quantal scintillation processings' l¤cal and n¤nl¤cal [as described in Bell's Theorem(s); bogusly described as "hidden variables" by retarded quantum-mechanics] comtextings. We see instead of classical idealism and positive realism, ensembles of evolving quantum energy wellings choosings, chancings, and changings many to many coobsfectively at up to Planck rates of quantum flux. There is n¤ monotime, and there is n¤ monodirection (trajectory). Doug - 12Aug2011.

In quantum mechanics the role played by the canonical equation of classical mechanics is taken by the Schrödinger equation, which expresses the time evolution of the function characterizing the quantum state as the result of the application of the operator Hop on the wave function (there are, of course, other formulations, which we cannot describe here).

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

  • Classical canon 'laws,' 'principles,' 'dogma,' and 'orthodoxy' are all without [f]lux essential Value in quantum reality. In quantum~reality they are ESQ, dead.
  • Classical canon 'laws,' 'principles,' 'dogma,' and 'orthodoxy' depend upon a classical presumption of 'state,' 'stoppability,' 'zero momentum,' etc., in order to be 'classically valid.'
  • "The wave function," appears to be saying one can specify, classically, an analytic lisr 'wave function.' Quantum wave functions are n¤t classically localable, isolable, separable, reducible. Quantum absolute change plus holographic middle inclusion deny essentially all classical lisr notions. Doug - 17Aug2011.

The term 'wave function' has been chosen to emphasize once again the wave particle duality so fundamental in all of quantum physics.

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

  • How many ways can we think about this? Let's use two terms as representative of dialectical (SOM) thingking and two terms as representative of quantum thinkqing. Dialectically let's use quantity and objective. Quantumly let's use quality and subjective. Then using text in a graphical way let's use dichon(~, o) to classically show its closed-continuous wave lisr duality as objective and quantitative (particulate). Similarly allow Doug to use quanton(~,¤) to quantumly show its open~quantized wave holographically EIMA complementarity as subjective and qualitative (fluxic). In summary, then:
    • dichon(~, o) represents classical wave-particle lisr duality, and
    • quanton(~,¤) represents quantum wave~wavicle complementarity.
  • So Doug offers two vastly omniffering world views of classical wave-particle duality vis-à-vis quantum wave~wavicle complementarity. Doug - 17Aug2011.

is a wave amplitude that evolves according to a particle type of equation determined by the Hamiltonian.

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

  • Classically 'wave amplitude' is a valid metric for energy. Quantumly only wave flux rate is a valid metric for energy.
  • Classical maths only work with dichons(~, o): static middle-exclusion is required. Classical maths have no means of 'operating' on quantons(~,¤): fluxing middle~inclusion is mandatory.
6

Schrödinger's equation, like the canonical equation of classical physics, expresses a reversible and deterministic evolution.

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

  • In general classical notions of reversibility are invalid in quantum~reality. Bosons and gluons may offer partial apparitions of reversibility, and that is all. Fermions and their CH3ings are quintessentially irreversible.
  • In general classical notions of determinism are invalid in quantum~reality. Quantum~reality is stochastic which means we are always uncertain to greater and lessor extents. We are limited to probable, plausible, and likely stochastics of quantized "guessing." In some cases our guesses, though, can be very precise (n¤t necessarily 'accurate'). Doug - 17Aug2011.

See Doug's QELRs of chance, change, and choice.

The reversible change of wave function corresponds to a reversible motion along a trajectory.

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

  • There are n¤ 'classical trajectories' in quantum~reality.
  • There is n¤ 'classical reversibility' in quantum~reality.
  • etc.

Doug - 17Aug2011.

It may k~now~ings be obvious to readers that quantization disables and invalidates classical notions of

  • linearity,
  • cause-effect,
  • y=f(t) continuity,
  • determination,
  • trajectories,
  • reversibility,
  • stability (especially in any sense of social OSFA planning and state-ic equilibrium borne on such invalid notion of social planning),
  • closure,
  • monism,
  • dualism,
  • positivism,
  • formal realism,
  • dialectic, and
  • so on...
8

If the wave function at a given instant is known, Schrödinger's equation allows it to be calculated for any previous or subsequent instant.

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

  • Static 'event' instances AKA 'occurrences' may n¤t be 'determined' in quantum~reality.
  • Predication of 'previous' and 'subsequent' instances is always uncertain thus never classically determinate.
9

From this viewpoint, the situation is strictly similar to that in classical mechanics. This is because the uncertainty relations of quantum mechanics do not include time. Time remains a number, not an operator, and only operators can appear in Heisenberg's uncertainty relations."

Basic issues, classical vav quantum include these:

Bold green is closest to a real quantum description Prigogine and Stengers uncloak in this paragraph. Overall though, their words belie countless classical SOM deceptions.

There is an abundance of learning to be had in this single paragraph. Don't waste it!
