Poisson brackets between conserved quantities are a fundamental tool in the theory of integrable systems. The subclass of weakly nonlocal Poisson brackets occurs in many significant integrable systems. Proving that a weakly nonlocal…
Developing ideas based on combinatorial formulas for characteristic classes we introduce the algebra modeling secondary characteristic classes associated to $N$ connections. Certain elements of the algebra correspond to the ordinary and…
We show that the dynamics of a quantum system can be represented by the dynamics of an underlying classical systems obeying the Hamilton equations of motion. This is achieved by transforming the phase space of dimension $2n$ into a Hilbert…
This note contributes to a circle of ideas that we have been developing recently in which we view certain abstract operator algebras $H^{\infty}(E)$, which we call Hardy algebras, and which are noncommutative generalizations of classical…
Fixing the number of particles $N$, the quantum canonical ensemble imposes a constraint on the occupation numbers of single-particle states. The constraint particularly hampers the systematic calculation of the partition function and any…
The Hamiltonian H specifies the energy levels and the time evolution of a quantum theory. It is an axiom of quantum mechanics that H be Hermitian because Hermiticity guarantees that the energy spectrum is real and that the time evolution is…
Although classical mechanics and quantum mechanics are separate disciplines, we live in a world where Planck's constant \hbar>0, meaning that the classical and quantum world views must actually {\it coexist}. Traditionally, canonical…
We study new Legendre transforms in classical mechanics and investigate some of their general properties. The behaviour of the new functions is analyzed under coordinate transformations.When invariance under different kinds of…
We introduce Quantum Time-Frequency Analysis, which expands the approach of Quantum Harmonic Analysis to include modulations of operators in addition to translations. This is done by a projective representation of double-phase space, and we…
We canonically quantize a Poisson manifold to a Lie 2-groupoid, complete with a quantization map, and show that it relates geometric and deformation quantization: the perturbative expansion in $\hbar$ of the (formal) convolution of two…
A consistent, local coordinate formulation of covariant Hamiltonian field theory is presented. Whereas the covariant canonical field equations are equivalent to the Euler-Lagrange field equations, the covariant canonical transformation…
The phase space of a noncanonical Hamiltonian system is partially inaccessible due to dynamical constraints (Casimir invariants) arising from the kernel of the Poisson tensor. When an ensemble of noncanonical Hamiltonian systems is allowed…
Quantum mechanics rests on the assumption that time is a classical variable. As such, classical time is assumed to be measurable with infinite accuracy. However, all real clocks are subject to quantum fluctuations, which leads to the…
It is shown that the new formula for the field theory Poisson brackets arise naturally in the extension of the formal variational calculus incorporating divergences. The linear spaces of local functionals, evolutionary vector fields,…
A linear odd Poisson bracket realized solely in terms of Grassmann variables is suggested. It is revealed that with the bracket, corresponding to a semi-simple Lie group, both a Grassmann-odd Casimir function and invariant (with respect to…
We address the Hamiltonian formulation of classical gauge field theories while putting forward results some of which are not entirely new, though they do not appear to be well known. We refer in particular to the fact that neither the…
The Poisson equation has wide applications in many areas of science and engineering. Although there are some quantum algorithms that can efficiently solve the Poisson equation, they generally require a fault-tolerant quantum computer which…
We prove under certain assumptions that there exists a solution of the Schrodinger or the Heisenberg equation of motion generated by a linear operator H acting in some complex Hilbert space H, which may be unbounded, not symmetric, or not…
It is well known that the Lie-algebra structure on quantum algebras gives rise to a Poisson-algebra structure on classical algebras as the Planck constant goes to 0. We show that this correspondance still holds in the generalization of…
We formulate quantum mechanics in spacetimes with real-order fractional geometry and more general factorizable measures. In spacetimes where coordinates and momenta span the whole real line, Heisenberg's principle is proven and the…
