Abstract
De Broglie waves may be a reflection of a deformation inherent in the path algebra of phase space. On a Riemannian manifold equipped with a suitable 2-form, the product of paths, which is ordinarily their concatenation, can be deformed by multiplication by a scalar weight giving rise to a function on paths. In flat phase space the associated function is periodic with period the de Broglie wave length. The de Broglie description may only be approximate in curved space.
