While in general there is no one-to-one correspondence between complex and quaternion quantum mechanics (QQM), there exists at least one version of QQM in which a {\em partial} set of {\em translations} may be made. We define these…
The use of complex geometry allows us to obtain a consistent formulation of octonionic quantum mechanics (OQM). In our octonionic formulation we solve the hermiticity problem and define an appropriate momentum operator within OQM. The…
Solutions of quaternionic quantum mechanics (QQM) are difficult to grasp, even in simple physical situations. In this article, we provide simple and understandable free particle quaternionic solutions, that can be easily compared to complex…
We find in our quaternionic version of the electroweak theory an apparently hopeless problem: In going from complex to quaternions, the calculation of the real-valued parameters of the CKM matrix drastically changes. We aim to explain this…
We consider non-local properties of quanternionic quantum mechanics, in which the complex numbers are replaced by the quaternions as the underlying algebra. Specifically, we show that it is possible to construct a non-local box. This allows…
We are dealing in this work with such formal and conceptual extensions of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics (QM) which contain QM with its standard formalism and interpretation as a subtheory. QM is here primarily equivalently reformulated…
In this talk I shall first make some brief remarks on quaternionic quantum mechanics, and then describe recent work with A.C. Millard in which we show that standard complex quantum field theory can arise as the statistical mechanics of an…
While real Hamiltonian mechanics and Hermitian quantum mechanics can both be cast in the framework of complex canonical equations, their complex generalisations have hitherto been remained tangential. In this paper quaternionic and…
A motivation is given for expressing classical mechanics in terms of diagonal projection matrices and diagonal density matrices. Then quantum mechanics is seen to be a simple generalization in which one replaces the diagonal real matrices…
In order to obtain a consistent formulation of octonionic quantum mechanics (OQM), we introduce left-right barred operators. Such operators enable us to find the translation rules between octonionic numbers and $8\times 8$ real matrices (a…
In the tradition of toy models of quantum mechanics in vector spaces over finite fields (e.g., Schumacher and Westmoreland's "modal quantum theory"), one finite field stands out, 2, since vectors over 2 have an interpretation as natural…
We investigate the difficulties that undergraduate students in quantum mechanics courses have in transferring learning from previous courses or within the same course from one context to another by administering written tests and conducting…
We investigate a one dimensional quantum mechanical model, which is invariant under translations and dilations but does not respect the conventional conformal invariance. We describe the possibility of modifying the conventional conformal…
As the most central and computationally intensive component of deep neural networks, the execution efficiency of matrix multiplication directly determines the training and inference performance of models. Harnessing the parallel processing…
We built up a explicit realization of (0+1)-dimensional q-deformed superspace coordinates as operators on standard superspace. A q-generalization of supersymmetric transformations is obtained, enabling us to introduce scalar superfields and…
The generalization of the imaginary unit is examined within the instances of the complex quantum mechanics ($\mathbb C$QM), and of the quaternionic quantum mechanics ($\mathbb H$QM) as well. Whereas the complex theory describes…
To any complex Hadamard matrix we associate a quantum permutation group. The correspondence is not one-to-one, but the quantum group encapsulates a number of subtle properties of the matrix. We investigate various aspects of the…
The review of modern study of algebraic, geometric and differential properties of quaternionic (Q) numbers with their applications. Traditional and "tensor" formulation of Q-units with their possible representations are discussed and groups…
An entirely quantum mechanical approach to diagonalize hermitean matrices has been presented recently. Here, the genuinely quantum mechanical approach is considered in detail for (2x2) matrices. The method is based on the measurement of…
We consider some simple examples of supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems and explore their possible geometric interpretation with the help of geometric aspects of real Clifford algebras. This leads to natural extensions of the…
