Quantum kinematics on q-deformed quantum spaces II Wave funtions on position and momentum space

نویسنده

چکیده

The aim of Part II of this paper is to try to describe wave functions on q-deformed versions of position and momentum space. This task is done within the framework developed in Part I of the paper. In order to make Part II self-contained the most important results of Part I are reviewed. Then it is shown that q-deformed exponentials and q-deformed delta functions play the role of momentum and position eigenfunctions, respectively. Their completeness and orthonormality relations are derived. For both bases of eigenfunctions matrix elements of position and momentum operators are calculated. A q-deformed version of the spectral decomposition of multiplication operators is discussed and qanalogs of Heaviside functions are proposed. Interpreting the results from the point of view provided by the concept of quasipoints gives the formalism a physical meaning. The definition of expectation values and the calculation of probability densities are explained in detail. Finally, it is outlined how the considerations so far carry over to antisymmetrized spaces.

Non-relativistic Schrödinger theory on q-deformed quantum spaces II The free non-relativistic particle and its interactions

This is the second part of a paper about a q-deformed analog of nonrelativistic Schrödinger theory. It applies the general ideas of part I and tries to give a description of one-particle states on q-deformed quantum spaces like the braided line or the q-deformed Euclidean space in three dimensions. Hamiltonian operators for the free q-deformed particle in one as well as three dimensions are int...

A quantum mechanical representation in phase space

A quantum mechanical representation suitable for studying the time evolution of quantum densities in phase space is proposed and examined in detail. This representation on 2'2 (2) phase space is based on definitions of the operators P and Q in phase space that satisfy various correspondences for the Liouville equation in classical and quantum phase space, as well as quantum position and momentu...

q-Translations on quantum spaces

Attention is focused on quantum spaces of particular importance in physics, i.e. two-dimensional quantum plane, q-deformed Euclidean space in three or four dimensions, and q-deformed Minkowski space. Each of these quantum spaces can be combined with its symmetry algebra to form a Hopf algebra. The Hopf structures on quantum space coordinates imply their translation. This article is devoted to t...

EMPG-08-09 q-DEFORMATION AND SEMIDUALISATION IN 3D QUANTUM GRAVITY

We explore in detail the role in euclidean 3d quantum gravity of quantum Born reciprocity or ‘semidualisation’. The latter is an algebraic operation defined using quantum group methods that interchanges position and momentum. Using this we are able to clarify the structural relationships between the effective non-commutative geometries that have been discussed in the context of 3d gravity. The ...
