Classical Limit of the Trajectory Representation of Quantum Mechanics,
Loss of Information and Residual Indeterminacy
Edward R. Floyd
abstract: The trajectory representation in the classical limit (\hbar \to 0) manifests
a residual indeterminacy. We show that the trajectory representation in the
classical limit goes to neither classical mechanics (Planck's correspondence
principle) nor statistical mechanics. This residual indeterminacy is contrasted
to Heisenberg uncertainty. We discuss the relationship between indeterminacy
and 't Hooft's information loss and equivalence classes.
