Abstract

In this work, we address the quartic quantum oscillator in phase space using two approaches: computational and algebraic methods. In order to achieve such an aim, we built simplistic unitary representations for Galilei group, as a consequence the Schrödinger equation is derived in the phase space. In this context, the amplitudes of quasi-probability are associated with the Wigner function. In a computational way, we apply the techniques of Lie methods. As a result, we determine the solution of the quantum oscillator in the phase space and calculate the corresponding Wigner function. We also calculated the negativity parameter of the analyzed system.

Analytical Solution for Gross-Pitaevskii Equation in Phase Space and Wigner Function

A. X. Martins, R. A. S. Paiva, G. X. A. Petronilo +4 more

In this work we study symplectic unitary representations for the Galilei group. As a consequence a Non-Linear Schrödinger equation is derived in phase space. The formalism is based on the non-commutative structure of the star-product, and using the group theory approach as a guide a physically consistent theory is constructed in phase space. The state is described by a quasi-probability amplitude that is in association with the Wigner function. With these results, we solve the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in phase space and obtained the Wigner function for the system considered.

Quantum Physics in Phase Space: an Analysis of Simple Pendulum

In this work we present a brief review about quantum mechanics in phase space. The approach discussed is based in the notion of symplectic structure and star-operators. In this sense, unitary representations for the Galilei group are construct, and the Schrodinger equation in phase space is derived. The connection between phase space amplitudes and Wigner function is presented. As a new result we solved the Schrodinger equation in phase space for simple pendulum.

SOLUTIONS FOR THE LANDAU PROBLEM USING SYMPLECTIC REPRESENTATIONS OF THE GALILEI GROUP

R. G. G. Amorim, M.C.B. Fernandes, F. C. Khanna +2 more

Symplectic unitary representations for the Galilei group are studied. The formalism is based on the noncommutative structure of the star-product, and using group theory approach as a guide, a consistent physical theory in phase space is constructed. The state of a quantum mechanics system is described by a quasi-probability amplitude that is in association with the Wigner function. As a result, the Schrödinger and Pauli–Schrödinger equations are derived in phase space. As an application, the Landau problem in phase space is studied. This shows how this method of quantum mechanics in phase space is to be brought to the realm of spatial noncommutative theories.

An Efficient Numerical Algorithm for Constructing the Wigner Function of a Quantum System with a Polynomial Potential in Phase Space

E. E. Perepelkin, Б. И. Садовников, Наталья Германовна Иноземцева +2 more

Abstract When considering quantum systems in phase space, the Wigner function is used as a function of quasi-probability density. Finding the Wigner function is related to the calculation of a Fourier transform of a certain composition of wave functions of the corresponding quantum system. As a rule, knowledge of the Wigner function is not the final goal, and the calculation of mean values of different quantum characteristics of the system is required. An explicit solution of the Schrödinger equation can be obtained only for a narrow class of potentials, therefore, in the majority of cases, numerical methods must be used to find wave functions. As a result, finding the Wigner function is related to the numerical integration of grid wave functions. When considering a one-dimensional system, the calculation of N2 Fourier integrals of the grid wave function is needed. To provide the necessary accuracy for wave functions, corresponding to the higher states of a quantum system, a larger number of grid nodes is needed. The goal of this work was to construct the numerical-analytical method for finding the Wigner function, which allows the number of computational operations to be considerably reduced. The quantum systems with polynomial potentials were considered, for which the Wigner function is represented as a series in some known functions.

Solution of Wigner Function’s Star-product for 3-D Harmonic Oscillator

Desheng Chen, Yahui Wang, Yao Wang +1 more

As a quasi-probability distribution function in phase-space and a special representation of the density matrix, Wigner function has great significance in physics. In this paper, first, Wigner function’s characteristic and calculation approach are introduced. Then, with Star-eigen equation we obtain the Wigner function for three-dimensional harmonic oscillator. In the end, we discuss the method describing the interaction between phonons and electrons (or photons) and obtain the equation that transition probability satisfies in phase space.
