Classical mechanics, in the Koopman-von Neumann formulation, is described in Hilbert space. It is shown here that classical canonical transformations are generated by Hermitian operators that are in general noncommutative. This naturally…
We formulate quantum mechanics on SO(3) using a non-commutative dual space representation for the quantum states, inspired by recent work in quantum gravity. The new non-commutative variables have a clear connection to the corresponding…
The quantization of the forced harmonic oscillator is studied with the quantum variable ($x,\hat v$), with the commutation relation $[x,\hat v]=i\hbar/m$, and using a Shr\"odinger's like equation on these variable, and associating a linear…
The FRT quantum Euclidean spaces $O_q^N$ are formulated in terms of Cartesian generators. The quantum analogs of N-dimensional Cayley-Klein spaces are obtained by contractions and analytical continuations. Noncommutative constant curvature…
The main aim of this note is to show that the formalism of multi-time equations in quantum mechanics meant to represent a manifestly Lorentz-invariant theory suffers from at least three imperfections: (1) It does not cover those physical…

The (consistent or decoherent) histories interpretation provides a consistent realistic ontology for quantum mechanics, based on two main ideas. First, a logic (system of reasoning) is employed which is compatible with the Hilbert-space…
The time-dependent Schrodinger equation is solved for two model problems for a non-Hermitian quantum system.A simple matrix model system is used to examine two critical problems for these systems: complex and non-observable energies and…
Thought experiments about the physical nature of set theoretical counterexamples to the axiom of choice motivate the investigation of peculiar constructions, e.g. an infinite dimensional Hilbert space with a modular quantum logic. Applying…
It is well-known that the coordinate as a continuous variable, consisting of a set of all points between 0 and $L$ contradicts the observability of measurement. In other words there might exist a fundamental length in nature, such as the…
Beginning with the principle that a closed mechanical composite system is timeless, time can be defined by the regular changes in a suitable position coordinate (clock) in the observing part, when one part of the closed composite observes…
In quantum mechanics, time is introduced as a non-measurable quantity, as there is no possibility to build a hermitian operator canonically conjugated to the Hamiltonian. We cannot have, therefore, the time operator, which means that the…
We discuss the principles to be used in the construction of discrete time classical and quantum mechanics as applied to point particle systems. In the classical theory this includes the concept of virtual path and the construction of system…
We investigate precise structural relations between the standard Schr\"odinger equation and its Carrollian analogue-the Carroll-Schr\"odinger equation-in 1+1 dimensions, with emphasis on dualities, potential maps, and solution behavior. Our…
In this paper an axiomatic formulation of the Schwinger Model in curved spacetime is considered. The mathematical approach utilized is that specified by Hollands and Wald in [1]. We will attempt to present the theory in this context,…
We discuss the problem of time in quantum mechanics. In the traditional formulation time enters the model as a~parameter, not an observable. In our model time is a quantum observable as any other quantum quantity and it is also a component…
We consider the quantum dynamics of a test particle in noncommutative space under the influence of linearized gravitational waves in the long wave-length and low-velocity limit. A prescription for quantizing the classical Hamiltonian for…
We study classical Hamiltonian systems in which the intrinsic proper time evolution parameter is related through a probability distribution to the physical time, which is assumed to be discrete. - This is motivated by the ``timeless''…
