To quantum mechanics through random fluctuations at the Planck time scale
We show that (in contrast to a rather common opinion) QM is not a complete
theory. This is a statistical approximation of classical statistical mechanics
on the {\it infinite dimensional phase space.} Such an approximation is based
on the asymptotic expansion of classical statistical averages with respect to a
small parameter Therefore statistical predictions of QM are only
approximative and a better precision of measurements would induce deviations of
experimental averages from quantum mechanical ones. In this note we present a
natural physical interpretation of as the time scaling parameter
(between quantum and prequantum times). By considering the Planck time as
the unit of the prequantum time scale we couple our prequantum model with
studies on the structure of space-time on the Planck scale performed in general
relativity, string theory and cosmology. In our model the Planck time is
not at all the {\it "ultimate limit to our laws of physics"} (in the sense of
laws of classical physics). We study random (Gaussian) infinite-dimensional
fluctuations for prequantum times and show that quantum mechanical
averages can be considered as an approximative description of such
fluctuations.Comment: Discussion on the possibility to go beyond Q
