The Quantization of Geodesic Deviation
نویسنده
چکیده
There exists a two parameter action, the variation of which produces both the geodesic equation and the geodesic deviation equation. In this paper it is shown that this action can be quantized by the canonical method, resulting in equations which generalize the Klein-Gordon equation. The resulting equations might have applications, and also show that entirely unexpected systems can be quantized. The possible applications of quantized geodesic deviation are to: i)the spreading wave packet in quantum theory, ii)and also to the one particle to many particle problem in second quantized quantum field theory.

2 00 4 Quantum Properties of a General Path Deviation Equation in the Pap - Geometry
A path deviation equation in the Parameterized Absolute Parallelism (PAP) geometry is derived. This equation includes curvature and torsion terms. These terms are found to be naturally quantized. The equation represents the deviation from a general path equation, in the PAP-geometry, derived by the author in a previous work. It is shown that, as the effect of the torsion, on the deviation, incr...
متن کاملThe String Deviation Equation
It is well known that the relative motion of many particles can be described by the geodesic deviation equation. Less well known is that the geodesic deviation equation can be derived from the second covariant variation of the point particle’s action. Here it is shown that the second covariant variation of the string action leads to a string deviation equation. This equation is a candidate for ...

The geodesic as well as the geodesic deviation equation for impulsive gravi-tational waves involve highly singular products of distributions (, 2 , 2). A solution concept for these equations based on embedding the distributional metric into the Colombeau algebra of generalized functions is presented. Using a universal regularization procedure we prove existence and uniqueness results and calcul...
متن کاملENTROPY OF GEODESIC FLOWS ON SUBSPACES OF HECKE SURFACE WITH ARITHMETIC CODE
There are dierent ways to code the geodesic flows on surfaces with negative curvature. Such code spaces give a useful tool to verify the dynamical properties of geodesic flows. Here we consider special subspaces of geodesic flows on Hecke surface whose arithmetic codings varies on a set with innite alphabet. Then we will compare the topological complexity of them by computing their topological ...
متن کاملTwo-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power order
In a non-complete graph $Gamma$, a vertex triple $(u,v,w)$ with $v$ adjacent to both $u$ and $w$ is called a $2$-geodesic if $uneq w$ and $u,w$ are not adjacent. The graph $Gamma$ is said to be $2$-geodesic transitive if its automorphism group is transitive on arcs, and also on 2-geodesics. We first produce a reduction theorem for the family of $2$-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power or...
