First offprint in the original wrappers and new pagination, of this late paper by Einstein about Hamilton's principle of stationery applied for the Unified Field Theory. - Content: Einstein already had succesfully used Hamiltion's achievements in the field of classical mechanics for his General Theory of Relativity in 1926. - Condition: Mint. - Reference: Schilpp-Shields 227; Weil 166 (quotes the pagination of the first separate printing, p. 156-159).

First offprint in the original wrappers and new pagination, of this rare seminal paper, at the same time Einstein's last publication before having to leave Nazi-Germany. - Content: Present paper ist the last work by Einstein, co-authored once again by Walther Mayer, that was published in Weimar Germany (Weil no. 187 was printed before). The offprint was distributed by the Prussian exactly a week before the Nazis came to power on January 30th 1933. Einstein, and also Mayer, would have to flee Germany due to their Jewish origins only a few months later. - Einstein's work on semivectors "was stimulated by Ehrenfest's insistence on a better understanding of the relation between single-valued and double-valued representations of the Lorentz group . . . [Einstein and Mayer] went on to relate semivectors to the Dirac equation and to generalize the formalism to general relativity" (Pais, Subtle is the Lord, pp. 451-452). - Condition: Mint. - Reference: Alicke 152; Boni-Russ-L. 217; Schilpp-Shields 250; Weil 186 (quotes the pagination of the first separate printing, p. 522-550).

26 x 20 cm (10,5 x 8 inches). Present is the complete volume 89 with 1381 pp. Half cloth binding. *First printing. In two previous papers (vol 85, 1952) a causal interpretation of the quantum theory was developed which involved the hypothesis that a quantum-mechanical system contains a precisely defined particle variable x but that, at present, we are restricted to calculating the probability density P(x, t) that the particle is at the position x. It was shown that the assumption that P(x, t)=|?(x, t)|2 is consistent, in the sense that if it holds initially, the equations of motion of the particles will cause this relation to be maintained for all time. In this paper, we extend the theory by showing that as a result of random collisions, an arbitrary probability density will ultimately decay into one with a density of |?(x, t)|2. Since all quantum-mechanical experiments to date have been concerned with statistical ensembles of systems that have been colliding with other systems for a very long time, it is therefore inevitable that as we draw samples from such ensembles. - Bücher en
