Stochastic Potential and Entanglement

A single particle bound wavefunction may be written as a Fourier series W(x)exp(-iEt) = exp(-iEt) Sum over p a(p) exp(ipx). We argued in previous notes (1) that exp(ipx) is a statistical free particle conditional probability whose modulus of 1 corresponds to P(x)=constant. For the case of a potential V(x), we argue it is stochastic and write it as:  Sum over k Vk exp(ikx). The stochastic potential gives rise to a momentum distribution: P(p/x) = a(p) exp(ipx) / W(x) at each x. A resonance, however, seems to occur because writing W(x) and V(x) in the time-independent Schrodinger equation as Fourier series, yields:

  pp/2m a(p) +  Sum over k  Vk a(p-k)   =  E  a(p)  ((1))

Thus, a(p) is really a combination of other a(p-k) or, in other words, there is a correlation between different free particle momentum states. If such is the case for single particle interactions with a stochastic potential, we argue it is possible a correlation may exist for two particles. In other words, a stochastic potential may not necessarily produce two separate resonances for two quantum particles such as ((1)), but may instead form an overall resonance involving both momenta p1 and p2  “interacting or communicating” with Vk as in the case of entanglement. We attempt to investigate these ideas in this note.
