The Emergence of Relativistic Quantum Field Theory from the Admissibility Conditions for Coherent Projection
Abstract
The Quantum Blueprint Formalism (QBF) has derived nonrelativistic quantum mechanics — the Schrödinger equation — as the circulation-dominated limit of the Mother Equation on the pre-coherent possibility space M_s (Schmieke, 2026r). That derivation operates in a finite-dimensional phase space and therefore yields quantum mechanics for a fixed number of particles. However, the Standard Model is a relativistic quantum field theory (QFT), requiring: (i) infinitely many degrees of freedom, (ii) creation and annihilation of particles, (iii) Lorentz invariance, (iv) the spin-statistics theorem, and (v) ultraviolet regulation. This paper extends the derivation to the full infinite-dimensional structure of M_s and establishes all five features as consequences of the same admissibility conditions (A1)–(A3) and the same Mother Equation. The only additional assumption is that M_s is infinite-dimensional. Second quantization, the KleinGordon and Dirac equations, the spin-statistics connection, and a natural ultraviolet cutoff all emerge without further postulates.
