The new finite temperature Schrödinger equations with strong or weak interaction

Heling Li, Bin Yang, Hongjun Shen

Implanting the thoughtway of thermostatistics into quantum mechanics, we formulate new Schrödinger equations of multi-particle and single-particle respectively at finite temperature. To get it, the pure-state free energies and the microscopic entropy operators are introduced and meantime the pure-state free energies take the places of mechanical energies at finite temperature. The definition of microscopic entropy introduced by Wu was also revised, and the strong or weak interactions dependent on temperature are considered in multi-particle Schrödinger Equations. Based on the new Schrödinger equation at finite temperature, two simple cases were analyzed. The first one is concerning some identical harmonic oscillators in N lattice points and the other one is about N unrelated particles in three dimensional in finite potential well. From the results gotten, we conclude that the finite temperature Schrödinger equation is particularly important for mesoscopic systems.

Time Fractional Quantum Mechanics

A time fractional quantum framework has been introduced into quantum mechanics.A new version of the space-time fractional Schrödinger equation has been launched.The introduced space-time fractional Schrödinger equation has a new scale parameter, which is a fractional generalization of Planck's constant in quantum physics.It has been shown that the presence of a time fractional time derivative in the space-time fractional Schrödinger equation significantly impacts quantum mechanical fundamentals.Time fractional quantum mechanical operators of coordinate, momentum and angular momentum were defined and their commutation relationships were established.The pseudo-Hamilton operator was introduced and its Hermicity has been proven.Two new functions related to the Mittag-Leffler function have been introduced to solve the space-time fractional Schrödinger equation.Energy of a time fractional quantum system has been defined and calculated in terms of the newly introduced functions.It has been found that in the framework of time fractional quantum mechanics there are no stationary states, and the eigenvalues of the pseudo-Hamilton operator are not the energy levels of the time fractional quantum system.A free particle solution to the space-time fractional Schrödinger equation was found.A free particle space-time fractional quantum mechanical kernel has been found and expressed in terms of the H-function.Renormalization properties of a free particle solution and the space-time fractional quantum kernel were established.Some particular cases of time fractional quantum mechanics have been analyzed and discussed.

Generalized Equations in Quantum Mechanics and Brownian Theory

Pierre-Henri Chavanis

We discuss formal analogies between a nonlinear Schrödinger equation derived by the author from the theory of scale relativity and the equations of Brownian theory. By using the Madelung transformation, the nonlinear Schrödinger equation takes the form of hydrodynamic equations involving a friction force, an effective thermal pressure, a pressure due to the self-interaction, and a quantum potential. These hydrodynamic equations have a form similar to the damped Euler equations obtained for self-interacting Brownian particles in the theory of simple liquids. In that case, the temperature is due to thermal motion and the pressure arises from spatial correlations between the particles. More generally, the correlations can be accounted for by using the dynamical density functional theory. We determine the excess free energy of Brownian particles that reproduces the standard quantum potential. We then consider a more general form of excess free energy functionals and propose a new class of generalized Schrödinger equations. For a certain form of excess free energy, we recover the generalized Schrödinger equation associated with the Tsallis entropy considered in a previous paper.
