We define and prove some properties of the semi-classical wavefront set. We also define and study semi-classical Fourier integral operators, of which we give a complete characterization. Lastly, we prove a generalization of the…

We characterize the wave front set $WF^P_\ast(u)$ with respect to the iterates of a linear partial differential operator with constant coefficients of a classical distribution $u\in{\mathcal D}'(\Omega)$, $\Omega$ an open subset in…

In this paper, we give characterizations of usual wave front set and Sobolev type wave front set in terms of wave packet transform without any restriction on basic wave packet.

Central to quantum theory, the wavefunction is the complex distribution used to completely describe a quantum system. Despite its fundamental role, it is typically introduced as an abstract element of the theory with no explicit definition.…

The concept of wave front set was introduced in 1969-1970 by M. Sato in the hyperfunctions context and by L. H\"ormander in the $\mathcal C^{\infty}$ context. Howe used the theory of wave front sets in the study of Lie groups…

In its broadest sense the term bent wave rays hints at light or electromagnetic waves bending in a strong gravitational field or in their progress through a transparent medium of nonuniform index of refraction. However, there are instances…

Quantum transients are temporary features of matter waves before they reach a stationary regime. Transients may arise after the preparation of an unstable initial state or due to a sudden interaction or a change in the boundary conditions.…

Let $\mathscr Q$ be the quaternion Heisenberg group, and let $\mathbf P$ be the affine automorphism group of $\mathscr Q$. We develop the theory of continuous wavelet transform on the quaternion Heisenberg group via the unitary…

It is well known that the classical and Sobolev wave fronts were extended into non-equivalent global versions by the use of the short-time Fourier transform. In this very short paper we give complete characterisations of initial wave front…

The degree-of-presence (of the quantum system) concept, accompanying that of the wavefunction-reality postulate, is introduced and studied in two ways. To begin with, an incomplete exposition of the present author's views is given.…

The underlying mathematics of the wavelet formalism is a representation of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group or the affine group. Within the framework of wavelets, it is possible to define the ``window'' which allows us to introduce a…
