Requirements of a conjugate operator are emphasized, especially in its role in uncertainty relations.It is argued that in many contexts it is necessary to extend the Hilbert space in order to define a conjugate operator as in gauge…
The position operator (defined within the Schroedinger representation in the standard way) becomes meaningless when periodic boundary conditions are adopted for the wavefunction, as usual in condensed matter physics. We show how to define…
It is shown that in presence of certain external fields a well defined self-adjoint time operator exists, satisfying the standard canonical commutation relations with the Hamiltonian. Examples include uniform electric and gravitational…
In this paper, we propose a new perspective of quantum spin (angular momentum) in which the Boltzmann constant \(k_{\beta}\), Planck temperature \(T_{P}\), Planck mass \(m_{P}\) and Planck area \(l_{P}^{2}\) are the integral part of the…
In this work, we discuss a pedagogical method in deriving the expressions for anomalous position and velocity. While we follow the steps used in optics in the derivation of the group velocity, we use Bloch wave functions instead of plane…

The algebra of polynomials in operators that represent generalized coordinate and momentum and depend on the Planck constant is defined. The Planck constant is treated as the parameter taking values between zero and some nonvanishing $h_0$.…
We discuss the requirement of single valuedness and periodicity of eigenfunction of the third component of the operator of angular momentum. This condition, imposed on a non observable, is often used to derive that the eigenvalues of…
The components of the position operator, at a fixed time, for a massless and spinning particle with given helicity $\lambda$ described in terms of bosonic degrees of freedom have an anomalous commutator proportional to $\lambda$. The…
Variational formalism in the extended phase space for fields is applied to gravity. It is shown that the requirement of invariance under arbitrary local inertial frames implies a coupling of torsion to a 3-form of matter fields on the one…

There are enough reasons for us to consider time as a dynamical variable or operator; but according to Pauli's argument the existence of a self-adjoint time operator is incompatible with the semi-boundedness of Hamiltonian spectrum. In this…
An absolute continuity approach to quasinormality which relates the operator in question to the spectral measure of its modulus is developed. Algebraic characterizations of some classes of operators that emerged in this context are…

Signal analysis is built upon various resolutions of the identity in signal vector spaces, e.g. Fourier, Gabor, wavelets, etc. Similar resolutions are used as quantizers of functions or distributions, paving the way to a time-frequency or…
We study the problem of computing the probability for the time-of-arrival of a quantum particle at a given spatial position. We consider a solution to this problem based on the spectral decomposition of the particle's (Heisenberg) state…
