Arbitrarily small changes in the commutation relations suffice to transform the usual singular quantum theories into regular quantum theories. This process is an extension of canonical quantization that we call general quantization. Here we…
Using the curved bc-beta-gamma system (a tensor product of a Heisenberg and a Clifford vertex algebra) we introduce quantum analogy of Lichnerowicz differential. As follows we suggest new machinery for finding the Lichnerowicz-Poisson…
The canonical quantum Hamiltonian eigenvalue problem for an anharmonic oscillator with a Lagrangian L = \dot{\phi}^2/2 - m^2 \phi^2/2 - g m^3 \phi^4 is numerically solved in two ways. One of the ways uses a plain cutoff on the number of…
The $\gamma^\ast \gamma \to \pi^0$ transition form factor, $G(Q^2)$, is computed on the entire domain of spacelike momenta using a continuum approach to the two valence-body bound-state problem in relativistic quantum field theory: the…
Quantum harmonic oscillators linearly coupled through coordinates and momenta, represented by the Hamiltonian $ {\hat H}=\sum^2_{i=1}\left( \frac{ {\hat p}^{2}_i}{2 m_i } + \frac{m_i \omega^2_i}{2} x^2_i\right) +{\hat H}_{int} $, where the…
For a prime base $b$ and primitive odd Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $b^2$, the collision transform coefficient $\hat{S}^{\circ}(\chi)$ admits an exact factorization: \[ \hat{S}^{\circ}(\chi) = -\frac{B_{1,\overline{\chi}} \cdot…
We study a semiclassical inverse spectral problem based on a spectral asymptotics result of arXiv:math/0502032, which applies to small non-selfadjoint perturbations of selfadjoint $h$-pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2. The…
Recently we showed that the postulated diffeomorphic equivalence of states implies quantum mechanics. This approach takes the canonical variables to be dependent by the relation p=\partial_q S_0 and exploits a basic GL(2,C)-symmetry which…
We study some quantum systems described by noncanonical commutation relations formally expressed as [q,p]=ihbar(I + chi H), where H is the associated (harmonic oscillator-like) Hamiltonian of the system, and chi is a Hermitian (constant)…
I review arguments demonstrating how the concept of "particle" numbers arises in the form of equidistant energy eigenvalues of coupled harmonic oscillators representing free fields. Their quantum numbers (numbers of nodes of the wave…
In the present work we study the two-point correlation function $R(\epsilon)$ of the quantum mechanical spectrum of a classically chaotic system. Recently this quantity has been computed for chaotic and for disordered systems using periodic…
While divergence and renormalization of physical quantities are frequently encountered in quantum field theory (QFT), they are not necessarily quantum-specific characteristics. We show in this paper that there exists a classical counterpart…
Let us consider the quantum/versus classical dynamics for Hamiltonians of the form \beq \label{0.1} H\_{g}^{\epsilon} := \frac{P^2}{2}+ \epsilon \frac{Q^2}{2}+ \frac{g^2}{Q^2} \edq where $\epsilon = \pm 1$, $g$ is a real constant. We shall…
We define a natural ensemble of trace preserving, completely positive quantum maps and present algorithms to generate them at random. Spectral properties of the superoperator Phi associated with a given quantum map are investigated and a…
Harmonic inversion is introduced as a powerful tool for both the analysis of quantum spectra and semiclassical periodic orbit quantization. The method allows to circumvent the uncertainty principle of the conventional Fourier transform and…
It is shown that a coherent understanding of all quantized phenomena, including those governed by unitary evolution equations as well as those related to irreversible quantum measurements, can be achieved in a scenario of successive…
Let $Q(x)$ denote a periodic function on the real line. The Schr\"odinger operator, $H_Q=-\partial_x^2+Q(x)$, has $L^2(\mathbb{R})-$ spectrum equal to the union of closed real intervals separated by open spectral gaps. In this article we…
We consider the pseudodifferential operators $H_{m,\Omega}$ associated by the prescriptions of quantum mechanics to the Klein-Gordon Hamiltonian $\sqrt{|{\bf P}|^2+m^2}$ when restricted to a compact domain $\Omega$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$. When…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemannian surface. Consider a family of $L^2$ normalized Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions, written in the semiclassical form $-h_j^2\Delta_g \phi_{h_j} = \phi_{h_j}$, whose eigenvalues satisfy $h h_j^{-1} \in (1, 1…
We study for $\alpha\in\R$, $k \in {\mathbb N} \setminus \{0\}$ the family of self-adjoint operators \[ -\frac{d^2}{dt^2}+\Bigl(\frac{t^{k+1}}{k+1}-\alpha\Bigr)^2 \] in $L^2(\R)$ and show that if $k$ is even then $\alpha=0$ gives the unique…
