Quantum mechanics as an infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian system with uncertainty structure: Part II

Abstract

Making reference to the formalism developed in Part I to formulate Schrödinger quantum mechanics, the properties of Kählerian functions in general, almost Kählerian manifolds, are studied.

Quantum mechanics as an infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian system with uncertainty structure: Part I

Renzo Cirelli, Alessandro Manià, Livio Pizzocchero B

Schrödinger quantum mechanics is formulated as an infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian system whose phase space carries an additional structure (uncertainty structure) to account for the probabilistic character of the theory. The algebra of observables is described as an algebra of smooth functions on the quantal phase space, with a product naturally induced by the geometrical structures living on that manifold. The possibility of generalizing Schrödinger mechanics along these lines is discussed.

Quantum Mechanics

Hitoshi Kitada

I consider in this book a formulation of Quantum Mechanics. Usually QM is formulated based on the notion of time and space, both of which are thought a priori given quantities or notions. However, when we try to define the notion of velocity or momentum, we encounter a difficulty as we will see in chapter 1. The problem is that if the notion of time is given a priori, the velocity is definitely determined when given a position, which contradicts the uncertainty principle of Heisenberg. We then set the basis of QM on the notion of position and momentum operators as in chapter 2. Time of a local system then is defined approximately as a ratio $|x|/|v|$ between the space coordinate $x$ and the velocity $v$. In this formulation of QM, we can keep the uncertainty principle, and time is a quantity that does not have precise values unlike the usually supposed notion of time has. The feature of local time is that it is a time proper to each local system, which is defined as a finite set of quantum mechanical particles. We now have an infinite number of local times that are unique and proper to each local system. Based on the notion of local time, the motion inside a local system is described by the usual Schrodinger equation. We investigate such motion in a given local system in part II. This is a usual quantum mechanics. After some excursion of the investigation of local motion, we consider in part III the relative relation or motion between plural local systems. In the final part IV, we will prove that there is at least one Universe wave function $\phi$ in which all local systems have local motions and thus local times. This concludes our formulation of Quantum Mechanics.

Quantum Mechanics

K. Kong Wan

The mathematical formalism of quantum theory in terms of vectors and operators in infinite-dimensional complex vector spaces is very abstract. The definitions of many mathematical quantities used do not seem to have an intuitive meaning, which makes it difficult to appreciate the mathematical formalism and understand quantum mechanics. This book provides intuition and motivation to the mathematics of quantum theory, introducing the mathematics in its simplest and familiar form, for instance, with three-dimensional vectors and operators, which can be readily understood. Feeling confident about and comfortable with the mathematics used helps readers appreciate and understand the concepts and formalism of quantum mechanics. This book is divided into four parts. Part I is a brief review of the general properties of classical and quantum systems. A general discussion of probability theory is also included which aims to help in understanding the probability theories relevant to quantum mechanics. Part II is a detailed study of the mathematics for quantum mechanics. Part III presents quantum mechanics in a series of postulates. Six groups of postulates are presented to describe orthodox quantum systems. Each statement of a postulate is supplemented with a detailed discussion. To make them easier to understand, the postulates for discrete observables are presented before those for continuous observables. Part IV presents several illustrative applications, which include harmonic and isotropic oscillators, charged particle in external magnetic fields and the Aharonov–Bohm effect. For easy reference, definitions, theorems, examples, comments, properties and results are labelled with section numbers. Various symbols and notations are adopted to distinguish different quantities explicitly and to avoid misrepresentation. Self-contained both mathematically and physically, the book is accessible to a wide readership, including astrophysicists, mathematicians and philosophers of science who are interested in the foundations of quantum mechanics.

ALTERNATIVE HAMILTONIAN DESCRIPTION FOR QUANTUM SYSTEMS

Boris Dubrovin, Giuseppe Marmo, Alberto Simoni

The existence of time-invariant Kähler structures is analyzed in both Classical and Quantum Mechanics. In Quantum Mechanics, a family of such Kähler structures is found, in the finite-dimensional case it is proven that this family is complete.
