But in this regard the pilot wave is not different from the standard Schroedinger’s wavefunction, is it?

- MiroF 7y agoSchroedinger’s wavefunction isn't sufficient in a relativistic context
- kgwgk 7y agoTrue. To be fair, it's true that the relativistic extensions to Bohmian mechanics are not as advanced as for the "standard" theory. But they are not necessarily impossible and the requirement of a prefered foliation may not be so unacceptable if the history of the universe goes back to a singularity (so there is a "local time since singularity" that gives somes sense to the idea of simultaneity).
- MiroF 7y agoI am not very familiar with Bohmian mechanics/Pilot wave theory, just wanted to make sure what the schro eq is and isn't was clear to everyone
- pdonis 7y agoNo, it isn't. Both are interpretations of non-relativistic quantum mechanics, and in non-relativistic QM there is no speed of light limit.
