New Phase Space Formulations and Quantum Dynamics Approaches
Abstract
We report recent progress on the phase space formulation of quantum mechanics with coordinate-momentum variables, focusing more on new theory of (weighted) constraint coordinate-momentum phase space for discrete-variable quantum systems. This leads to a general coordinate-momentum phase space formulation of composite quantum systems, where conventional representations on infinite phase space are employed for continuous variables. It is convenient to utilize (weighted) constraint coordinate-momentum phase space for representing the quantum state and describing nonclassical features. Various numerical tests demonstrate that new trajectory-based quantum dynamics approaches derived from the (weighted) constraint phase space representation are useful and practical for describing dynamical processes of composite quantum systems in gas phase as well as in condensed phase.
