From quantum mechanics to classical statistical physics: generalized Rokhsar-Kivelson Hamiltonians and the “Stochastic Matrix Form” decomposition
Quantum Hamiltonians that are fine-tuned to their so-called Rokhsar-Kivelson (RK) points, first presented in the context of quantum dimer models, are defined by their representations in preferred bases in which their ground state wave functions are intimately related to the partition functions of combinatorial problems of classical statistical physics. We show that all the known examples of qua...
متن کاملA Quantum Approach to Classical Statistical Mechanics
We present a new approach to study the thermodynamic properties of d-dimensional classical systems by reducing the problem to the computation of ground state properties of a d-dimensional quantum model. This classical-to-quantum mapping allows us to deal with standard optimization methods, such as simulated and quantum annealing, on an equal basis. Consequently, we extend the quantum annealing ...
متن کاملNoncommutative Classical and Quantum Mechanics for Quadratic Lagrangians (Hamiltonians)
We consider classical and quantum mechanics for an extended Heisenberg algebra with additional canonical commutation relations for position and momentum coordinates. In our approach this additional noncommutativity is removed from the algebra by linear transformation of coordinates and transmitted to the Hamiltonian (Lagrangian). Since linear transformations do not change the quadratic form of ...
متن کاملFrom Classical to Quantum Mechanics:
From Classical to Quantum Mechanics: " How to translate physical ideas into mathematical language " Abstract In this paper, we investigate the connection between Classical and Quantum Mechanics by dividing Quantum Theory in two parts:-General Quantum Axiomatics (a system is described by a state in a Hilbert space, observables are self-adjoints operators and so on...)-Quantum Mechanics properly ...
متن کاملThe classical - statistical limit of quantum mechanics
The classical-statistical limit of quantum mechanics is studied. It is proved that the limit ~ → 0 is the good limit for the operators algebra but it si not so for the state compact set. In the last case decoherence must be invoked to obtain the classical-statistical limit.
