Emergent supersymmetry in a time-space inverted quantum mechanics
Abstract
This Letter shows that a supersymmetric structure is inherent to the time space inverted (TSI) quantum mechanics (QM) framework, where the spatial evolution of states is generated by the operator [\href{https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.95.032133}{Phys. Rev. A. {\bf 95}, 032133 (2017)}], named here Momentunian, whose square-root structure that can be factorized. Such factorization leads directly to a supersymmetric algebra with supercharges and partner Hamiltonians. For the relativistic Momentunian the zero mode states are shown to be evanescent states, \textit{independent} of the physical potential. Furthermore, the existence of non-relativistic and relativistic Momentunian \textit{partners} is demonstrated, whose zero-mode states are no longer necessarily zero energies, but vanishing momenta states. The natural emergence of the -fractional time derivatives in the TSI QM, leads to supercharges which incorporate memory effects into the supersymmetric wave functions. Results indicate that supersymmetry emerges as a structural property of the TSI QM rather than being imposed phenomenologically.
