The way I see it, the benefit of this new Complex approach is that it
takes a handful of difficult questions (how can we explain the double
slit experiment, what is wave-particle duality, where does the
Schrodinger equation really come from, etc) and reduces it to only two
(very tough) questions.
1. What is the Quantum potential/force?
The question is borderline philosophical, but just as gravity was
better illuminated by General Relativity, I think a similar
development may illuminate Quantum potential.
2. Does complex space exist?
The term "imaginary" used to denote sqrt(-1) is a bit of a misnomer,
because it assigns a subjective term to a mathematical concept.
Complex space MUST exist. But why can we not measure/visualize it?
What is it about complex space that makes it "non-real"?
In the search of a Grand Unified Theory I must note the similarity
between the transformation Dr. Yang uses in his developments and the
equation for entropy. Compare:
Entropy: S = k ln(omega)
Yang's wavefunction transformation: S = ih ln(psi)
I'd love to hear your thoughts.
1. So far we have no answer for the source of the quantum potential.
But I have an idea that I think it may relate to the field problem. I
think that the existence of the quantum field is due to the particle
interacting with the space. The interaction generates the source of
the quantum field. Just similar to the mass and gravity. But it is
just my guess. Since the next step of our work is try to connect the
general relativity to our theory, maybe we will have the anwser then.
2. The complex space includes the "real" world and the "imaginary"
world. The main reason that we cannot observe the imaginary world is
because we live in the real world. What we can measure is only the
projection of actual happening to the real world. Just like a ant
lives in the plat plan, he never know what happen in the 3 diemnsion
space. What he can see is only the projection to the plan. About the
question "Does the imaginary would really exist?" I think the anwser
is YES. Otherwise, we cannot explain those quantum phenomenon
perfectly. In the other hand, the natural always remains some clues
for us. As you can see, there is a "i" in S.E.
About the last part you mentioned really interesting. I never think
that before. I think it may give us some hint too. Maybe it is a
connection between those different physics.
Thank you for your question. Looking forward to your suggestion or
further question!!
The step that would really finalize the theory would be to give a
derivation of the quantum potential without using the Schrodinger
equation, and I think your goal to unify it with general relativity
may provide this result.
When I studied thermodynamics, I always wondered what a microstate
really WAS. I still am wondering what a wavefunction is in QM. I
actually find that the concept of quantum potential is very simple and
much more straight-forward than any explanation I have yet seen--but
this still does not give a source for the wavefunction. Is the
wavefunction fundamental or do you think it can be eliminated?

Furthermore, this more fundamental anwser for the quantum field can
leed us to obtain the quantum potential without using wave function.
The puzzle will be solved when we realize what cause the quantum
field. Just like we know what is the gravitation as we know how the
mass interact with the spacetime.
