Probabilistic whereabouts of the "quantum potential"

Institute of Physics
University of Opole
45-052 Opole, Poland

We review major appearances of the functional expression +/- Δrho^(1/2)/rho^(1/2) and the likes in the theory of random motion and various quantum mechanically supported dynamical scenarios. Motivations behind the idea of the Brownian recoil principle [Phys. Rev. A 46, (1992), 4634 and Phys. Rev. E 59, (1999), 1498] are outlined, together with its apparent links with some of L. Fritsche and M. Haugk arguments [Ann. Phys (Leipzig) 6, (2003), 271].
