Hilbert space representations for Hermitian position-deformed Heisenberg algebra and path integral formulation

Thomas Katsekpor, Latévi M. Lawson, Prince K. Osei +1 more

Position deformation of a Heisenberg algebra and Hilbert space representation of both maximal length and minimal momentum uncertainties may lead to loss of Hermiticity of some operators that generate this algebra. Consequently, the Hamiltonian operator constructed from these operators is also not Hermitian. In this paper, with an appropriate positive-definite Dyson map, we establish the Hermiticity of these operators by means of a similarity transformation. We then construct Hilbert space representations associated with these Hermitian operators that generate a Hermitian Heisenberg algebra. With the help of these representations, we establish the path integral formulation of any systems in this Hermitian algebra. Finally, using the path integral of a free particle as an example, we demonstrate that the Euclidean propagator, action, and kinetic energy of this system are constrained by the standard classical mechanics limits.

Deformed Heisenberg algebra and its Hilbert space representations

Latévi M. Lawson, Ibrahim Nonkané, Kinvi Kangni

A deformation of Heisenberg algebra induces among other consequences a loss of Hermiticity of some operators that generate this algebra. Therefore, these operators are not Hermitian, nor is the Hamiltonian operator built from them. In the present paper, we propose a position deformation of Heisenberg algebra with both maximal length and minimal momentum uncertainties. By using a pseudo-similarity transformation to the non-Hermitian operators, we prove their Hermiticity with a suitable positive-definite pseudo-metric operator. We then construct Hilbert space representations associated with these pseudo-Hermitian operators. Finally, we study the eigenvalue problem of a free particle in this deformed space and we show that this deformation curved the quantum levels allowing particles to jump from one state to another with low energy transitions.

Path integral in position-deformed Heisenberg algebra with strong quantum gravitational measurement

Latévi M. Lawson, Prince K. Osei, Komi Sodoga +1 more

Position-deformed Heisenberg algebra with maximal length uncertainty has recently been proven to induce strong quantum gravitational fields at the Planck scale (2022 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor.55 105303). In the present study, we use the position space representation on the one hand and the Fourier transform and its inverse representations on the other to construct propagators of path integrals within this deformed algebra. The propagators and the corresponding actions of a free particle and a simple harmonic oscillator are discussed as examples. Since the effects of quantum gravity are strong in this Euclidean space, we show that the actions which describe the classical trajectories of both systems are bounded by the ordinary ones of classical mechanics. This indicates that quantum gravity bends the paths of particles, allowing them to travel quickly from one point to another. It is numerically observed by the decrease in values of classical actions as one increases the quantum gravitational effects.
