Hi all,
In 'Bohmian mechanics,' (BM) velocities are given by the 'guiding equation' as explained, for instance, in this article of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/qm-bohm/#DefiEquaBohmMech
These velocities can, in principle, be greater than c. This is not a problem in a non-relativistic context.
Is there an upper limit to velocities when relativity is taken into account?
I know that non-locality is the main issue for finding a 'relativistic' version of BM. In contrast, it seems that faster than light velocities are not a problem.
Thanks in advance!
