Insights into Quantum Time Reversal from the Classical Schrödinger Equation

Explore the intriguing puzzle of time reversal in quantum theory through this thought-provoking talk by Craig Callender from UCSD. Delve into the complexities of implementing time reversal via complex conjugation in quantum mechanics and uncover a new explanation for this phenomenon. Examine the parallel issue in classical statistical mechanics when represented in the "quantum-looking" classical Schrödinger equation. Investigate how the classical solution can be applied to the quantum context, potentially shedding light on the limitations of standard quantum mechanics. Engage with controversial ideas that challenge conventional interpretations of quantum theory and gain fresh insights into the nature of time reversal in both classical and quantum realms.
