ON THE EMERGENT ASPECTS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS IN RELATION TO THE THERMODYNAMICS OF IRREVERSIBLE PROCESSES AND EMERGENT GRAVITY

This PhD thesis elaborates on a proposal made by the Dutch theoretical physicist G. 't Hooft (1999 Nobel prize in physics), to the effect that quantum mechanics is the emergent theory of some underlying, deterministic theory. According to this proposal, information-loss effects in the underlyin...
