Zeta-Regularized Schr¨odinger Equation and the Analytic Extension of the Uncertainty Principle
AKTAŞ, BORA
Abstract
Abstract The standard Schrödinger equation, founded upon the second-order Laplace operator, confines quantum evolution to purely geometric curvature. This work introduces a generalized formulation in which the spatial operator is analytically extended by odd Riemann zeta values—ζ(3),ζ(5),ζ(7),…\zeta(3), \zeta(5), \zeta(7), \ldotsζ(3),ζ(5),ζ(7),…—yielding what we term the zeta-regularized Schrödinger equation. In this framework, the Laplacian hierarchy is weighted by coefficients determined by discrete cyclic symmetries (Cn)(C_{n})(Cn), resulting in a spectrum of higher-order phase-curvature operators that encode analytic corrections to the quantum speed limit and uncertainty principle. The formulation implies that measurable phase gradients, multi-layered energy spectra, and nonlocal probability currents can emerge from the analytic structure of the wave operator itself. Physically, this provides a direct link between quantum interferometric observables and the arithmetic hierarchy of the Riemann zeta function, suggesting that fundamental uncertainty bounds may possess an analytic, rather than merely geometric, origin.
