چکیده

We address the deformation quantization of generally parametrized systems displaying a natural time variable. The purpose of this exercise is twofold: first, to illustrate through a pedagogical example the potential of quantum phase space methods in the context of constrained systems and particularly of generally covariant systems. Second, to show that a causal representation for quantum phase space quasidistributions can be easily achieved through general parametrization. This result is succinctly discussed. PACS: 03.65.Ca; 03.65.Db; 03.65.Bz

Formal solutions of stargenvalue equations

The formal solution of a general stargenvalue equation is presented, its properties studied and a geometrical interpretation given in terms of star-hypersurfaces in quantum phase space. Our approach deals with discrete and continuous spectra in a unified fashion and includes a systematic treatment of non-diagonal stargenfunctions. The formalism is used to obtain a complete formal solution of Wi...

Time dependent transformations in deformation quantization

We study the action of time dependent canonical and coordinate transformations in phase space quantum mechanics. We extend the covariant formulation of the theory by providing a formalism that is fully invariant under both standard and time dependent coordinate transformations. This result considerably enlarges the set of possible phase space representations of quantum mechanics and makes it po...

Geometric phase in the causal quantum theories

The projective-geometric formulation of geometric phase for any ensemble in the causal quantum theories is given. This formulation generalizes the standard formulation of geometric phase to any causal ensemble including the cases of a single causal trajectory, the experimental geometric phase and the classical geometric phase.

Wigner function for damped systems

Both classical and quantum damped systems give rise to complex spectra and corresponding resonant states. We investigate how resonant states, which do not belong to the Hilbert space, fit the phase space formulation of quantum mechanics. It turns out that one may construct out of a pair of resonant states an analog of the stationary Wigner function.

Geometro-Stochastically Quantized Fields with Internal Spin Variables

The use of internal variables for the description of relativistic particles with arbitrary mass and spin in terms of scalar functions is reviewed and applied to the stochastic phase space formulation of quantum mechanics. Following Bacry and Kihlberg a four-dimensional internal spin space S̄ is chosen possessing an invariant measure and being able to represent integer as well as half integer spi...
