On the complete system of observables in quantum mechanics

César R. de Oliveira

Published Oct 1, 1990• 0 citations

Abstract

This paper contains a series of remarks about the concept of Complete System of Observables (CSO) in quantum mechanics and a discussion of two definitions of CSO, one given by Jauch [Helv. Phys. Acta 33, 711 (1960)] and the other by Prugovecki [Can. J. Phys. 47, 1083 (1968)].

The dynamic turn in quantum logic

Alexandru Baltag, Sonja Smets

In this paper we show how ideas coming from two areas of research in logic can reinforce each other. The first such line of inquiry concerns the “dynamic turn” in logic and especially the formalisms inspired by Propositional Dynamic Logic (PDL); while the second line concerns research into the logical foundations of Quantum Physics, and in particular the area known as Operational Quantum Logic, as developed by Jauch and Piron (Helve Phys Acta 42:842–848, 1969 ), Piron (Foundations of Quantum Physics, 1976 ). By bringing these areas together we explain the basic ingredients of Dynamic Quantum Logic, a new direction of research in the logical foundations of physics.

The Stueckelberg wave equation and the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron

Aaron Bennett

The parametrized relativistic quantum mechanics of Stueckelberg (1942 Helv. Phys. Acta 15 23) represents time as an operator, and has been shown elsewhere to yield the recently observed phenomena of quantum interference in time, quantum diffraction in time and quantum entanglement in time. The Stueckelberg wave equation as extended to a spin-1/2 particle by Horwitz and Arshansky (1982 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 15 L659) is shown here to yield the electron g -factor g = 2 (1 + α/2π), to leading order in the renormalized fine structure constant α, in agreement with the quantum electrodynamics of Schwinger (1948 Phys. Rev. 73 416).

Observables

Hans F. de Groote

This is the extended version of a talk presented at the J.W.Goethe Universitaet Frankfurt a. M. and at the same time a preview at a forthcoming extensive publication on the same subject. It is shown that there is a common background structure for quantum and classical observables. Moreover, a contextual generalization of the notion of quantum observable is proposed.

Equilibrium states of a class of quantum mean-field theories

Pavel Bóna

The general structure and existence of equilibrium and ground states of infinite spin systems with the mean-field type interaction of Hepp and Lieb [Helv. Phys. Acta 46, 573 (1973)] is investigated. The form and the role of the ‘‘Bogoliubov–Haag’’ Hamiltonians is cleared. The analysis is based on a recent mathematically correct definition of the corresponding time automorphism group τQ (specified by a classical Hamiltonian Q) of an appropriately defined ‘‘physical’’ C*-algebra of observables 𝒞 containing an abelian subalgebra 𝒩 of classical macroscopic quantities as well as the conventional ‘‘bare’’ quasilocal (sub-) algebra 𝒜, 𝒞=𝒜⊗𝒩 [P. Bóna, J. Math. Phys. 29, 2223 (1988)]. A Lie group G of ‘‘hidden symmetries’’ acting nontrivially (also) on 𝒩 plays an essential role in the presented theory. The applications to the quasispin strong-coupling version of the BCS model of superconductivity, and to the corresponding model of the Josephson junction illustrate possibilities of the developed formalism as well as an easy manipulation with it. A simple mathematical description of ‘‘symmetry breaking’’ is sketched for the considered class of mathematical models of large quantal systems.
