Rigged Hilbert spaces and time-asymmetry: the case of the upside-down simple harmonic oscillator
نویسندگان
چکیده
The upside-down simple harmonic oscillator system is studied in the contexts of quantum mechanics and classical statistical mechanics. It is shown that in order to study in a simple manner the creation and decay of a physical system by ways of Gamow vectors we must formulate the theory in a time-asymmetric fashion, namely using two different rigged Hilbert spaces to describe states evolving towards the past and the future. The spaces defined in the contexts of quantum and classical statistical mechanics are shown to be directly related by the Wigner function. PACS Nrs. 05.20-y, 03.65.

Super algebra and Harmonic Oscillator in Anti de Sitter space
The harmonic oscillator in anti de Sitter space(AdS) is discussed. We consider the harmonic oscillator potential and then time independent Schrodinger equation in AdS space. Then we apply the supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics approach to solve our differential equation. In this paper we have solved Schrodinger equation for harmonic oscillator in AdS spacetime by supersymmetry approach. The shape...
متن کامل$L_{p;r} $ spaces: Cauchy Singular Integral, Hardy Classes and Riemann-Hilbert Problem in this Framework
In the present work the space $L_{p;r} $ which is continuously embedded into $L_{p} $ is introduced. The corresponding Hardy spaces of analytic functions are defined as well. Some properties of the functions from these spaces are studied. The analogs of some results in the classical theory of Hardy spaces are proved for the new spaces. It is shown that the Cauchy singular integral operator is...
متن کاملF eb 2 00 3 Representation of Semigroups in Rigged Hilbert Spaces : Subsemigroups of the Weyl - Heisenberg Group
This paper studies how differentiable representations of certain subsemigroups of the Weyl-Heisenberg group may be obtained in suitably constructed rigged Hilbert spaces. These semigroup representations are induced from a continuous unitary representation of the Weyl-Heisenberg group in a Hilbert space. Aspects of the rigged Hilbert space formulation of time asymmetric quantum mechanics are als...
متن کاملThe rigged Hilbert space approach to the Lippmann - Schwinger equation . Part I
We exemplify the way the rigged Hilbert space deals with the Lippmann-Schwinger equation by way of the spherical shell potential. We explicitly construct the Lippmann-Schwinger bras and kets along with their energy representation, their time evolution and the rigged Hilbert spaces to which they belong. It will be concluded that the natural setting for the solutions of the Lippmann-Schwinger equ...
متن کاملThe Klein-Gordon oscillator and the proper time formalism in a Rigged Hilbert sapace
The implications of manifestly covariant formulation of relativistic quantum mechanics depending on a scalar evolution parameter, canonically conjugated to the variable mass, is still an unsettled issue. In this work we find a complete set of generalized eigenfunctions of the Klein-Gordon Oscillator in the above mentioned formulation, in the Rigged Hilbert Space with Tempered Ultradistributions...
