Quantum solitodynamics: Non-linear wave mechanics and pilot-wave theory

Résumé

In 1927 Louis de Broglie proposed an alternative approach to standard quantum mechanics known as the double solution program (DSP) where particles are represented as bunched fields or solitons guided by a base (weaker) wave. DSP evolved as the famous de Broglie-Bohm pilot wave interpretation (PWI) also known as Bohmian mechanics but the general idea to use solitons guided by a base wave to reproduce the dynamics of the PWI was abandonned. Here we propose a nonlinear scalar field theory able to reproduce the PWI for the Schrödinger and Klein-Gordon guiding waves. Our model relies on a relativistic `phase harmony' condition locking the phases of the solitonic particle and the guiding wave. We also discuss an extension of the theory for the $N$ particles cases in presence of entanglement and external (classical) electromagnectic fields.
