We give a mathematically rigorous derivation of Ehrenfest's equations for the evolution of position and momentum expectation values, under general and natural assumptions which include atomic and molecular Hamiltonians with Coulomb…
Ehrenfest theorem is proven in relativistic quantum theory of charged particles, moving under the influence of an external electromagnetic field. In order to extend the classic Ehrenfest result to the relativistic domain we bypassed the…
We describe a study motivated by our interest to examine the incompleteness of the Ehrenfest's theorem in quantum mechanics and to resolve a doubt regarding whether or not the hermiticity of the hamiltonian operator is sufficient to justify…
The validity of the Ehrenfest's theorem in Abelian and non-Abelian quantum field theories is examined. The gauge symmetries are taken to be unbroken. By suitably choosing the physical subspace, the above validity is proven in both the…
In this paper we develop a picture of Quantum Mechanics based on the description of physical observables in terms of expectation value functions, generalizing thus the so called Ehrenfest theorems for quantum dynamics. Our basic technical…
The Ehrenfest theorem and the Robertson uncertainty relation are well-known basic equations in quantum mechanics. However, there exist problematic cases, where the Ehrenfest theorem and the Robertson uncertainty relation are not correct.…
The purpose of the paper is to study the foundations of the main axioms of Quantum Mechanics. From a general study of the mathematical properties of the models used in Physics to represent systems, we prove that the states of a system can…
There is a belief that the Ehrenfest theorem holds true universally. We demonstrate that for a classically nonrelativistic particle constrained on an $N-1$ ($N\geq 2$) curved hypersurface embedded in $N$ flat space, the theorem breaks down.
The breakdown of Ehrenfest's theorem imposes serious limitations on quaternionic quantum mechanics (QQM). In order to determine the conditions in which the theorem is valid, we examined the conservation of the probability density, the…
Using elements of symmetry, we constructed the Noncommutative Schr\"odinger Equation from a representation of Exotic Galilei Group. As consequence, we derive the Ehrenfest theorem using noncommutative coordinates. We also have showed others…
For a particle in a box, the operator $-i\partial_x$ is not self-adjoint and thus does not qualify as the physical momentum. As a result, in general the Ehrenfest theorem is violated. Based upon a recently developed new concept for a…
Based on the recent construction of a self-adjoint momentum operator for a particle confined in a one-dimensional interval, we extend the construction to arbitrarily shaped regions in any number of dimensions. Different components of the…
We are focused on the idea that observables in quantum physics are a bit more than just hermitian operators and that this is, in general, a "tricky business". The origin of this idea comes from the fact that there is a subtle difference…
Elaboration of some fundamental relations in three dimensional quantum mechanics is considered taking into account the restricted character of areas in radial distance. In such cases the boundary behavior of the radial wave function and…
Any Calderon-Zygmund operator T is pointwise dominated by a convergent sum of positive dyadic operators. We give an elementary self-contained proof of this fact, which is simpler than the probabilistic arguments used for all previous…
Historically, Ehrenfest's theorem (1927) is the first one which shows that classical physics can emerge from quantum physics as a kind of approximation. We recall the theorem in its original form. Next, we highlight its generalizations to…
Starting on the basis of the non-commutative q-differential calculus, we introduce a generalized q-deformed Schr\"odinger equation. It can be viewed as the quantum stochastic counterpart of a generalized classical kinetic equation, which…
We point out that two of the most important theorems of Quantum Mechanics, the Ehrenfest theorem and the Hellmann-Feynman theorem, lack in their standard form important information: there are cases where non-Hermitian boundary contributions…
We discuss a generalization of the Ehrenfest theorem to the recently proposed precanonical quantization of vielbein gravity which proceeds from a space-time symmetric generalization of the Hamiltonian formalism to field theory. Classical…
We expose the most advanced equiconvergence results for Birkhoff- and Stone-regular differential operators and present also author's approach to this problem. We give a full proof of equiconvergence on the whole interval, which constitutes…
