In the present paper we solve a problem posed by Tomasz Szostok who asked about the solutions $f$ and $F$ to the system of inequalities $$ f\Big(\frac{x+y}{2}\Big)\leq \frac{F(y)-F(x)}{y-x}\leq \frac{f(x)+f(y)}{2}. $$ We show that $f$ and…
F. Luca proved for any fixed rational number $\alpha>0$ that the Diophantine equations of the form $\alpha\,m!=f(n!)$, where $f$ is either the Euler function or the divisor sum function or the function counting the number of divisors, have…
In the context of phase-space quantization, matrix elements and observables result from integration of c-number functions over phase space, with Wigner functions serving as the quasi-probability measure. The complete sets of Wigner…
For a function $f\colon \mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$, let $$ N^+_f(x)=\{n\leq x: n=k+f(k) \mbox{ for some } k\}. $$ Let $\tau(n)=\sum_{d|n}1$ be the divisor function, $\omega(n)=\sum_{p|n}1$ be the prime divisor function, and…
The Wigner-Weyl- Moyal approach to Quantum Mechanics is recalled, and similarities to classical probability theory emphasised. The Wigner distribution function is generalised and viewed as a construction of a bosonic object, a target space…
In this work we consider the inverse problem of determining the properties of a Wigner function from the set of its zeros (the nodal set). The previous state of the art of the problem is Hudson's theorem, which shows that an empty nodal set…
By adopting the direct method and fixed point method, we prove that the Hyers-Ulam stability of the following additive-quadratic functional equation \begin{equation} f(x+y, z+w)+f(x-y, z-w)-2 f(x, z)-2 f(x, w)=0 \end{equation} in…
In a recent paper [PRE 62, 4665 (2000)] (quant-ph/0203102) Manfredi and Feix proposed an alternative definition of quantum entropy based on Wigner phase-space distribution functions and discussed its properties. They proposed also some…
A method for finding the general solution to the partial differential equations: \ $F(u_x,u_y)=0$; \ $F(f(x)\:u_x,u_y)=0$ \ (or \ $F(u_x,h(y)\:u_y)=0$) \ is presented, founded on a Legendre like transformation and a theorem for Pfaffian…
In this paper we study the exponential uniform strong summability of two-dimensional Vilenkin-Fourier series. In particular, it is proved that the two-dimensional Vilenkin-Fourier series of the continuous function $f$ is uniformly strong…
Let $S$ be a semigroup. Our main results is that we describe the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equations \[g(x\sigma (y)) = g(x)g(y)+f(x)f(y),\ x,y\in S,\] \[f(x\sigma (y)) = f(x)g(y)+f(y)g(x),\ x,y\in S,\] and…
We show convexity of solutions to a class of convex variational problems in the Gauss and in the Wiener space. An important tool in the proof is a representation formula for integral functionals in this infinite dimensional setting, that…
We introduce a new class of unitary transformations based on the su(1,1) Lie algebra that generalizes, for certain particular representations of its generators, well-known squeezing transformations in quantum optics. To illustrate our…
Wigner functions are broadly used to probe non-classical effects in the macroscopic world. Here we develop an orbital-free functional framework to compute the 1-body Wigner quasi-probability for both fermionic and bosonic systems. Since the…
A general formulation of the linear model with functional (random) explanatory variable $X = X(t), t \in T$ , and scalar response Y is proposed. It includes the standard functional linear model, based on the inner product in the space…
This expository note presents a constructive proof of Wigner's theorem using only a few basic facts about Hilbert spaces, such as the existence of orthonormal bases and the Fourier decomposition of a vector. Our proof is based on a proof by…
In this research article, we formulate and prove multidimensional Widder--Arendt theorem and integrated form of multidimensional Widder--Arendt theorem for functions with values in sequentially complete locally convex spaces. Established…
In this paper we give simple extension and uniqueness theorems for restricted additive and logarithmic functional equations.
We first review the usefulness of the Wigner distribution functions (WDF), associated with Lindblad and pre-master equations, for analyzing a host of problems in Quantum Optics where dissipation plays a major role, an arena where weak…
In this work we study the Wigner functions, which are the quantum analogues of the classical phase space density, and show how a full rigorous semiclassical scheme for all orders of \hbar can be constructed for them without referring to the…
