We present the N=2 supersymmetric formulation for the classical and quantum dynamics of a nonrelativistic charged particle on a curved surface in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. For a particle moving on a constant-curvature…
We explore the notion of spatial extent and structure, already alluded to in earlier literature, within the formulation of quantum mechanics on the noncommutative plane. Introducing the notion of average position and its measurement, we…
A model for the motion of a charged particle in the vacuum is presented which, although purely classical in concept, yields Schrodinger's equation as a solution. It suggests that the origins of the peculiar and nonclassical features of…
The third modification of the space-time geometry is considered. (The first modification is the spacial relativity, the second one is the general relativity.) After the third modification of the space-time geometry the motion of free…
We give a simple demonstration that the Schr\"odinger equation may be recast as a self-contained second-order Newtonian law for a congruence of spacetime trajectories. This provides a pictorial representation of the quantum state as the…
The classical dynamics and the construction of quantum states in a plane wave curved spacetime are examined, paying particular attention to the similarities with the case of an electromagnetic plane wave in flat spacetime. A natural map…
In a sense of deformation quantization, noncommutative (NC) geometry introduces a quantum structure of spacetime. Using the twist-deformation formalism, we show that the dynamical effects of spacetime noncommutativity can amount to a…
Entropic dynamics is a framework in which quantum theory is derived as an application of entropic methods of inference. Entropic dynamics on flat spaces has been extensively studied. The objective of this paper is to extend the entropic…
Canonical quantum gravity provides insights into the quantum dynamics as well as quantum geometry of space-time by its implications for constraints. Loop quantum gravity in particular requires specific corrections due to its quantization…
We present a comprehensive comparison of spin and energy dynamics in quantum and classical spin models on different geometries, ranging from one-dimensional chains, over quasi-one-dimensional ladders, to two-dimensional square lattices.…
We consider in general terms dynamical systems with finite-dimensional, non-simply connected configuration-spaces. The fundamental group is assumed to be finite. We analyze in full detail those ambiguities in the quantization procedure that…
We develop a geometric formulation of stochastic dynamics in which noise, diffusion, path probabilities, fluctuation theorems, and entropy production arise from the intrinsic geometry of an evolving manifold rather than from externally…
We present a theory of discontinuous motion of particles in continuous space-time. We show that the simplest nonrelativistic evolution equation of such motion is just the Schroedinger equation in quantum mechanics. This strongly implies…
When compared to quantum mechanics, classical mechanics is often depicted in a specific metaphysical flavour: spatio-temporal realism or a Newtonian "background" is presented as an intrinsic fundamental classical presumption. However, the…
Quantum dynamics can be regarded as a generalization of classical finite-state dynamics. This is a familiar viewpoint for workers in quantum computation, which encompasses classical computation as a special case. Here this viewpoint is…
Relational particle models are of value in the absolute versus relative motion debate. They are also analogous to the dynamical formulation of general relativity, and as such are useful for investigating conceptual strategies proposed for…
A new idea for the quantization of dynamic systems, as well as space time itself, using a stochastic metric is proposed. The quantum mechanics of a mass point is constructed on a space time manifold using a stochastic metric. A stochastic…
A basic linearity of quantum dynamics, that density matrices are mapped linearly to density matrices, is proved very simply for a system that does not interact with anything else. It is assumed that at each time the physical quantities and…
An example of mechanical system whose configuration space is direct product of a curved space and the local group of rotations, is presented. The system is considered as a model of spinning particle moving in the space. The Hamiltonian…
We consider classical and quantum dynamics of a free particle in de Sitter's space-times with different topologies to see what happens to space-time singularities of removable type in quantum theory. We find analytic solution of the…
