Before we proposed an algebraic technics for the Hamiltonian approach to the evolution systems of partial differential equations, including systems with constraints. Here we further develop this approach and present the defining system of…
In this paper we continue the study, started in [1], of the operatorial formulation of classical mechanics given by Koopman and von Neumann (KvN) in the Thirties. In particular we show that the introduction of the KvN Hilbert space of…
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…
A large class of classical dynamical systems with an external rapidly oscillating driving action is considered and the effective Hamiltonian-like equations for the mean motion are obtained. The respective Liouville equation for the…
Classical mechanics is formulated in complex Hilbert space with the introduction of a commutative product of operators, an antisymmetric bracket, and a quasidensity operator. These are analogues of the star product, the Moyal bracket, and…
In this work we discuss the notion of observable - both quantum and classical - from a new point of view. In classical mechanics, an observable is represented as a function (measurable, continuous or smooth), whereas in (von Neumann's…
In this paper, we apply the geometric Hamilton--Jacobi theory to obtain solutions of Hamiltonian systems in Classical Mechanics, that are either compatible with a cosymplectic or a contact structure. As it is well known, the first structure…
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…
Classical mechanical systems are modeled by a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, and their symmetries, encoded in the action of a Lie group $G$ on $M$ by diffeomorphisms that preserves $\omega$. These actions, which are called "symplectic",…
Let the pair of operators, $(H, T)$, satisfy the weak Weyl relation: $Te^{-itH} = e^{-itH}(T + t)$, where $H$ is self-adjoint and $T$ is closed symmetric. Suppose that g is a realvalued Lebesgue measurable function on $\RR$ such that $g \in…
The quantum-to-classical transition is considered from the point of view of contractions of associative algebras. Various methods and ideas to deal with contractions of associative algebras are discussed that account for a large family of…
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…
We give closed forms for several families of Heun functions related to classical entropies. By comparing two expressions of the same Heun function, we get several combinatorial identities generalizing some classical ones.
Classical integrable Hamiltonian systems generated by elements of the Poisson commuting ring of spectral invariants on rational coadjoint orbits of the loop algebra $\wt{\gr{gl}}^{+*}(2,{\bf R})$ are integrated by separation of variables in…
For a (classically) integrable quantum mechanical system with two degrees of freedom, the functional dependence $\hat{H}=H_Q(\hat{J}_1,\hat{J}_2)$ of the Hamiltonian operator on the action operators is analyzed and compared with the…
A calculation of the classical analogue for the quantum wave function and local denity of states, in energy representation, is presented for simple Hamiltonian systems. Sucha analogous were proposed by M. V. Berry and A. voros considering…
The relationship between the Hamiltonian and Lagrangean functions in analytical mechanics is a type of duality. The two functions, while distinct, are both descriptive functions encoding the behavior of the same dynamical system. One…
We carry out "Hecke summation" for the classical Eisenstein series $E_k$ in an adelic setting. The connection between classical and adelic functions is made by explicit calculations of local and global intertwining operators and Whittaker…
We describe a simple dynamical model characterized by the presence of two noncommuting Hamiltonian constraints. This feature mimics the constraint structure of general relativity, where there is one Hamiltonian constraint associated with…
The concept of duality reflects a link between two seemingly different physical objects. An example in quantum mechanics is a situation where the spectra (or their parts) of two Hamiltonians go into each other under a certain…
