What is 'Quantum Domain'? I read something about it being a level of existence... If it is a level of existence, what sort of classification of existence are we talking about?

In reality all systems are of a quantum nature, it is simply that quantum effects are negligible at many scales.
However, many macroscopic phenomena can only explained by quantum effects.

Please elaborate a bit more?
I even read something about it being an "energy soup" consisting of energy and information.
Please explain the whole thing and the other levels of existence.

Please get into the habit of citing your sources in full, especially when you are basing your question from it.

These days it is known everything is quantum, but due to interaction with the environment the classical world emerges. This is the decoherence view:

Also what Wienberg has to say will most likely interest you:

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

Not an expert in QM. AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is quite different from the classical wave equation. The former is an equation for the dynamics of the state of a (quantum?) system, the latter is an equation for the dynamics of a (classical) degree of freedom. As a matter of fact, Schrödinger's equation is first order in time derivatives, while the classical wave equation is second order. But, AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is a wave equation; only its interpretation makes it non-classical...
I am looking at the Laughlin wave function and it contains the term $$\prod_{j<k}^{N}\left(z_j-z_k\right)^q$$ In Wikipedia the lower index on ##\Pi## is ##1\le i<j\le N## and there is no upper index. I'm not sure what either mean. For example would $$\prod_{j<k}^{N}\left(z_j-z_k\right)^q=\prod_{k=2}^{N}\left[\prod_{j=1}^{k-1}\left(z_j-z_k\right)^q\right]?$$ (It seems that ##k## cannot be 1 because there would be nothing to multiply in the second product). I'm not sure what else the...
