Abstract

The representation of a Schrodinger equations as a classic Hamiltonian system allows to construct a unified perturbation theory both in classic, and in a quantum mechanics grounded on the theory of canonical transformations, and also to receive asymptotic estimations of affinity of the precisian approximated solutions of Schrodinger equations

Canonical averaging of the Schrödinger equation

A. G. Chirkov

The representation of the Schrödinger equation in the form of a classical Hamiltonian system makes it possible to construct a unified perturbation theory that is based on the theory of canonical transformations and covers both classical and quantum mechanics. Also, the closeness of the exact and approximate solutions of the Schrödinger equation can be approximately estimated with such a representation.

Quasi-Classical Theory of the Nonspinning Electron

Ralph Schiller

We develop a modified Hamiltonian-Jacobi theory of classical mechanics following the early work of Van Vleck. This modified Hamiltonian-Jacobi theory, or quasi-classical theory, permits us to exhibit in classical mechanics many features that in the past have been exclusively associated with quantum mechanics. We deal with classical wave functions, classical operators, classical "eigenvalue" equations, a classical "sum over paths" formulation of classical mechanics, and with classical creation and destruction operators. Following Van Vleck, one can derive the WKB approximate solutions to the Schr\"odinger equation from the solutions of the classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation. If we apply the methods of Keller to the nonrelativistic and relativistic Kepler problem, we derive eigenvalues from the requirement of single-valuedness imposed on the WKB solutions. It turns out that the energy eigenvalues are those given by the Schr\"odinger equation and the Klein-Gordon equation, respectively. In the particular case of the harmonic oscillator there exists a canonical transformation which transforms the quasi-classical equation into an exact equation of quantum mechanics. We conjecture that if the WKB approximation and the Schr\"odinger equation predict the same eigenvalues, then there always exists a canonical transformation which transforms the quasi-classical equation into the corresponding Schr\"odinger equation. Finally we derive the quasi-classical equations in momentum space.

Linear Canonical Transformations and the Hamilton-Jacobi Theory in Quantum Mechanics

Akihiro Ogura, Motoo Sekiguchi

We investigate two methods of constructing a solution of the Schrödinger equation from the canonical transformation in classical mechanics. One method shows that we can formulate the solution of the Schrödinger equation from linear canonical transformations, the other focuses on the generating function which satisfies the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in classical mechanics. We also show that these two methods lead to the same solution of the Schrödinger equation.
