TIME DEPENDENCE in QUANTUM MECHANICS
Time-dependent perturbation theory is formulated in a systematic way. The focus is shifted from the wavefunction to the unitary transformation that evolves the wavefunction from one slice of time to another. Perturbation theory is formulated in terms of a systematic iterative expansion of the unitary transformation in terms of the perturbing hamiltonian, expressed in the interaction representat...
متن کاملTime, Gravity, and Quantum Mechanics
The role that time plays in Einstein's theory of gravity and in quantum mechanics is described, and the difficulties that these conflicting roles present for a quantum theory of gravity are described. The relation of any fundamental theory to time is crucial as was evident from the earliest days of physics. If we go back to Newton's Principia, in which he established a general theoretical struc...
متن کاملDoes Time Exist in Quantum Gravity?
Time is absolute in standard quantum theory and dynamical in general relativity. The combination of both theories into a theory of quantum gravity leads therefore to a “problem of time”. In my essay I shall investigate those consequences for the concept of time that may be drawn without a detailed knowledge of quantum gravity. The only assumptions are the experimentally supported universality o...
متن کاملTime in (2+1)-Dimensional Quantum Gravity
General relativity in three spacetime dimensions is used to explore three approaches to the “problem of time” in quantum gravity: the internal Schrödinger approach with mean extrinsic curvature as a time variable, the Wheeler-DeWitt equation, and covariant canonical quantization with “evolving constants of motion.” (To appear in Proc. of the Lanczos Centenary Conference, Raleigh, NC, December 1...
متن کاملQuantum Space-time and Classical Gravity
A method has been recently proposed for defining an arbitrary number of differential calculi over a given noncommutative associative algebra. As an example a version of quantized space-time is considered here. It is found that there is a natural differential calculus using which the space-time is necessarily flat Minkowski space-time. Perturbations of this calculus are shown to give rise to non...
