The coupling between internal degrees of freedom of quantum systems and their overall motion in an external gravitational field plays a central role in multiple extensions of Einstein's equivalence principle to quantum physics. While…
The virial theorem is established in the framework of resolution-scale relativity for stochastic dynamics characterized by a diffusion constant D. It only relies on a simple time average just like the classical virial theorem, while the…
We consider the Schr\"odinger equation for hydrogen-like atom with Coulomb potential and non-point ball nucleus. The eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the operator given by an arbitrary rotation-invariant boundary value problem on the…
In the present paper, we consider a non self adjoint hyperbolic operator with a vector field and an electric potential that depend not only on the space variable but also on the time variable. More precisely, we attempt to stably and…
In this paper, we give an update on divergent problems concerning the radiative corrections of quantum electrodynamics in $(3+1)$ dimensions. In doing so, we introduce a geometric adaptation for the covariant photon propagator by including…
Commutator relations are used to investigate the spectra of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians, $H = -\Delta + V({x}),$ acting on functions of a smooth, compact $d$-dimensional manifold $M$ immersed in $\bbr^{\nu}, \nu \geq d+1$. Here $\Delta$…
This work concerns a study of the quantum mechanical extension of the work of Horwitz et al. [1] on the stability of classical Hamiltonian systems by geometrical methods. Simulations are carried out for several important examples, these…
We propose a Wigner quasiprobability distribution function for Hamiltonian systems in spaces of constant curvature --in this paper on hyperboloids--, which returns the correct marginals and has the covariance of the Shapiro functions under…
We calculate the Ehrenfest-time dependence of the leading quantum correction to the spectral form factor of a ballistic chaotic cavity using periodic orbit theory. For the case of broken time-reversal symmetry, our result differs from that…
The need for a time-shift invariant formulation of quantum theory arises from fundamental symmetry principles as well as heuristic cosmological considerations. Such a description then leaves open the question of how to reconcile global…
In this initial paper in a series, we first discuss why classical motions of small particles should be treated statistically. Then we show that any attempted statistical description of any nonrelativistic classical system inevitably yields…
The description of many dynamical problems like the particle motion in higher dimensional spherically and axially symmetric space-times is reduced to the inversion of a holomorphic hyperelliptic integral. The result of the inversion is…
It is claimed in another paper that the collapse of a quantum mechanical wave function is more than invariant, it is trans-representational. It must occur along a fully invariant surface. The obvious surface available for this purpose is…
Excited bound states are often understood within scattering based theories as resulting from the collision of a particle on a target via a short-range potential. We show that the resulting formalism is non-Hermitian and describe the Hilbert…
Within the context of Newton's theory of gravitation, restricted to point-like test particles and central bodies, stable circular orbits in ordinary space are related to stable circular paths on a massless, unmovable, undeformable…
It is known that the momentum operator canonically conjugated to the position operator for a particle moving in some bounded interval of the line {(with Dirichlet boundary conditions) is not essentially self-adjoint}: it has a continuous…
We revise the construction of creation/annihilation operators in quantum mechanics based on the representation theory of the Heisenberg and symplectic groups. Besides the standard harmonic oscillator (the elliptic case) we similarly treat…
We prove the Ehrenfest theorem of quantum mechanics under sharp assumptions on the operators involved.
Inspired by subsequential ergodic theorems, we study the validity of Wiener's lemma and the extremal behavior of a measure $\mu$ on the unit circle via the behavior of its Fourier coefficients $\hat\mu(k_n)$ along subsequences $(k_n)$. We…
We consider the question of whether the high-energy eigenfunctions of certain Schr\"odinger operators on the $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space of constant curvature $-\kappa^2$ are flexible enough to approximate an arbitrary solution of the…
