Factorization method for Schrödinger equation in relativistic configuration space and q-deformations

R. M. Mir‐Kasimov

Abstract

Review paper is devoted to the relativistic configuration space (RCS) concept, a version of the relativistic Quantum Mechanics in RCS, the generalization of the Dirac-Infeld-Hall factorization method in the framework of the noncommutative differential calculus natural for RCS, different versions of the deformed oscillators, emerging as the generalization of the harmonic oscillator for RCS. In the formulation of the Newton-Wigner postulates for the relativistic localized states the hypothesis of commutativity of the position operator components is silently accepted as an evident fact. In the present work it is shown that commutativity is not necessary condition and the alternative (noncommutative) approach to the relativistic position operator and localization concept can be realized in a framework of the physically as well as mathematically comprehensive scheme. The different generalizations of the Dirac-Infeld-Hall factorization method for this case are constructed. This method enables us to find out all possible generalizations of the most important nonrelativistic integrable case—the harmonic oscillator. It is shown also that the relativistic oscillator = q —oscillator.

Different factorizations of the relativistic finite-difference Schroedinger equation and q-oscillators

R. M. Kasimov

The concept of the one -- dimensional quantum mechanics in the relativistic configurational space (RQM) is reviewed briefly. The Relativistic Schroedinger equation (RSE) arising here is the finite-difference equation with the step equal to the Compton wave length of the particle. The different generalizations of the Dirac -- Infeld -- Hall factorizarion method for this case are constructed. This method enables us to find out all possible finite-difference generalizations of the most important nonrelativistic integrable case -- the harmonic oscillator. As it was shown (\cite{kmn},\cite{mir6}) in RQM the harmonic oscillator = $q$ -- oscillator. It is also shown that the relativistic and nonrelativistic QM's are different representations of the same theory. Thetransformation connecting these two representations is found in explicit form. It could be considered as the generalization of the Kontorovich -- Lebedev transformation.

The Wigner-Newton state localization and the commutativity of the configuration space

R. M. Mir‐Kasimov

The commutativity requirement of the components of the position operator is implicitly included in the set of the Wigner-Newton postulates defining the localized state of the relativistic particle. By omitting this constraint, we obtain a more general concept of localization based on the representation of the Poincare group.

Non-relativistic Schroedinger theory on q-deformed quantum spaces I, Mathematical framework and equations of motion

Hartmut Wachter

The aim of these three papers (I, II, and III) is to develop a q-deformed version of non-relativistic Schroedinger theory. Paper I introduces the fundamental mathematical and physical concepts. The braided line and the three-dimensional q-deformed Euclidean space play the role of position space. For both cases the algebraic framework is extended by a time element. A short review of the elements of q-deformed analysis on the spaces under consideration is given. The time evolution operator is introduced in a consistent way and its basic properties are discussed. These reasonings are continued by proposing q-deformed analogs of the Schroedinger and the Heisenberg picture.

The Dirac factorization method and the harmonic oscillator

D. Babusci, G. Dattoli

We apply the Dirac factorization method to the nonrelativistic harmonic oscillator and, more in general, to Hamiltonians with a generic potential. It is shown that this procedure naturally leads to a supersymmetric formulation of the problems under study. It is also speculated on the physical meaning underlying this method and it is suggested that the vacuum field fluctuations can be viewed as the spontaneous emission of the associated two-level system, whose quantization is due to the noncommuting nature of the harmonic oscillator canonical variables.

q-Deformed Harmonic Oscillator in Phase Space

A. K. Aringazin, K. M. Aringazin, Sotirios Baskoutas +3 more

Relation between Bopp-Kubo formulation and Weyl-Wigner-Moyal symbol calculus, and non-commutative geometry interpretation of the phase space representation of quantum mechanics are studied. Harmonic oscillator in phase space via creation and annihilation operators, both the usual and $q$-deformed, is investigated. We found that the Bopp-Kubo formulation is just non-commuting coordinates representation of the symbol calculus. The Wigner operator for the $q$-deformed harmonic oscillator is shown to be proportional to the 3-axis spherical angular momentum operator of the algebra $su_{q}(2)$. The relation of the Fock space for the harmonic oscillator and double Hilbert space of the Gelfand-Naimark-Segal construction is established. The quantum extension of the classical ergodiicity condition is proposed.

Localization in Relativistic Quantum Theories

Lars O. Herrmann

Although the concept of localization in non-relativistic quantum mechanics is mathematically well-defined there is no obvious and unambiguous way to generalize it to relativistic quantum theory. After a brief review of localization in quantum mechanics the Newton-Wigner localization scheme is introduced and it is shown by the example of a massive spinless system how it leads to a position operator with seemingly unphysical properties. This motivated the development of several theorems which claim to rule out the existence of localizable particles. A particularly important one of them is presented and its validity discussed. In the last section however it is shown that if localization is considered with respect to spacelike hyperplanes, the properties of the Newton-Wigner position operators are not necessarily unphysical and localizable particles can exist.
