A theorem relating irrotational velocity to conservation of probability density in quantum mechanics
The ratio of the wave functions of an accelerating frame of reference and an inertial frame of reference is determined. The velocity of points of a frame of reference with respect to an inertial frame of reference is then allowed to depend on space and time. The curl of this velocity
is shown to be zero.
