Three Dimensional Non-Commutative Quantum Mechanics

Fabio Benatti, Laure Gouba

We consider a model of non-commutative quantum mechanics given by two harmonic oscillators over a non-commutative two dimensional configuration space. We study possible ways of removing the non-commutativity based on the classical limit context known as anti-Wick quantization. We show that removal of non-commutativity from the configuration space and from the canonical operators is not commuting operation.

In this paper we show a Bell inequality of Clauser-Horne type for three three-dimensional systems (qutrits). Violation of the inequality by quantum mechanics is shown for the case in which each of the three observers measures two non-commuting observables, defined by the so called unbiased symmetric six port beamsplitters, on a maximally entangled state of three qutrits. The strength of the violation of the inequality agrees with the numerical results presented in Kaszlikowski et. al., quant-ph//0202019.

Abstract. After introducing Wigner Quantum Systems, we give a short review of the one-dimensional Wigner Quantum Oscillator. Then we define the three-dimensional N-particle Wigner Quantum Oscillator, and its relation to the Lie su-peralgebra sl(1|3N). In this framework (and first for N = 1), energy, coordinates, momentum and the angular momentum of the particles are investigated. Wigner Quantum Systems (WQSs) are quantum systems in which the canonical com-mutation relations (CCRs) are replaced by a compatibility condition between the Heisenberg equations and Hamilton’s equations. By dropping the CCRs, WQSs offer a natural framework for quantum mechanics with non-commutative coordinates. Here we consider in particular the three-dimensional N-particle Wigner Quantum Oscillator (WQO). As an introductory ex-ample, some properties of the one-dimensional WQO are reviewed, with an emphasis on the different particle probability distributions (as compared to the ordinary one-dimensional os-cillator). For the three-dimensional N-particle WQO, a solution related to the Lie superalge-bra sl(1|3N) is considered. For N = 1 we investigate the operators corresponding to coordi-nates, momentum and angular momentum of the particle in a class of representation spaces.
