Galilean quantum kinematics

Jorge Krause

The Galilean symmetry of a free particle in one-dimensional space is examined under the scope of non-Abelian quantum kinematics. Within the Hilbert space that carries the regular ray representation of the Galilei group the Schrödinger operator appears as one of the three fundamental invariants of the extended kinematic algebra. By means of a superselection rule the physical Hilbert subspaces of the system are identified, in which a complementary ray representation of the Galilean transformation produces the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, and the Feynman space-time propagator. The quantization approach used in this paper is purely group theoretic and relativistic.

Quantum kinematics and the Lie group structure of non-Abelian quantum mechanics

Jorge Krause

A formalism of quantum kinematics which rests on the regular representation of a Lie group is proposed. This representation leads to explicit canonical commutation relations for non-Abelian dynamical variables which, together with the Lie algebra, define the kinematic algebra. Generalised equations of motion for the group-parameter-dependent operators, as well as generalised wave equations, are introduced over the group manifold considered as a background arena. The formalism proposed affords a method of geometric quantisation stemming directly from the observed symmetries of a system.

Quantum kinematics of the harmonic oscillator

Jorge Krause

The formalism of non-Abelian quantum kinematics is applied to the Newtonian symmetry group of the harmonic oscillator. Within the regular ray representation of the group, the Schrödinger operator, as well as two other (new) invariant operators, are obtained as Casimir operators of the extended kinematic algebra. Superselection rules are then introduced, which permit the identification (and the explicit calculation) of the physical states of the system. Next, a complementary ray representation, attached to the space-time realization of the group, casts the Schrödinger operator into the familiar time-dependent space-time differential operator of the harmonic oscillator and thus, by means of the superselection rules, one obtains the time-dependent Schrödinger equation of the sytem. Finally, the evaluation of a Hurwitz invariant integral, over the group manifold, affords the well known Feynman space-time propagator 〈t′,x′‖t,x〉 of the simple harmonic oscillator. Everything comes out from the assumed symmetries of the system. The whole approach is group theoretic and ‘‘relativistic.’’ No classical analog is used in this ‘‘quantization’’ scheme.
