INFORMATION ENTROPY AND NONLINEAR SEMIQUANTUM DYNAMICS

Claudia M. Sarris, Araceli N. Proto

We describe how, departing from the Shannon entropy, it is possible to deal with semiquantum time-independent nonlinear Hamiltonians. The interplay between the quantal and classical degrees of freedom can be easily seen, and the set of differential equations that govern the temporal evolution of the quantal mean values and the classical variables is obtained. We find invariants of motion and, particularly, we describe under which conditions, the uncertainty principle remains as an invariant of motion too. Through the analysis of these invariants, it is possible to follow the transition of the system from quantum to classical regime and to conclude that the uncertainty principle behaves as an indicator telling us whether the system is in regular or irregular regime. A simple example is shown.

Peculiar Dynamics of Phase-Space Embedded SU(2) Hamiltonians

Claudia M. Sarris, Angelo Plastino, Miryam Patricia Sassano

The Maximum Entropy Principle is used to analyze a phase-space embedded SU(2) Hamiltonian that exhibits a very complex dynamics. It is seen that the uncertainty principle becomes an invariant of the motion.

The Wave Function and the Minimum Uncertainty Function of the Time Dependent Harmonic Oscillator(New Developments in Statistical Physics Similarities in Diversities,YITP Workshop)

Kyu Hwang Yeon, Chung‐In Um, Thomas F. George

The time dependent harmonic oscillator is solved explicitly for quantum mechanics by the operator method with an auxiliary condition as the classical solution. Two classical invariant quantities which determine whether or not the system is bound are derived by the classical equation of motion. We obtain the invariant operator from one classical invariant quantity. Its eigenfunction is related to the solution of Schrodinger equation of the system and its eigenvalue is related to another classical quantity. The wave function is evaluated exactly by the eigenfunction of the invariant operator but it is not the eigenfunction of the Hamiltonian of the system. The uncertainty which calculates with the wave function is not a minimum one. We will confirm that the function which holds minimum uncertainty is a eigenfunction of the Hamiltonian.
