Operator Space Manifold Theory: Modeling Quantum Operators with a Riemannian Manifold

The Half-Transform Ansatz (HTA) is a proposed method to solve hyper-geometric equations in Quantum Phase Space by transforming a differential operator to an algebraic variable and including a specific exponential factor in the wave function, but the mechanism which provides this solution scheme is not known. Analysis of the HTA's application to the Hydrogen atom suggests an underlying mechanism which the HTA is a part of. Observations of exponential factors that act on the wave function naturally suggest modeling quantum operator definitions as a point on a Riemannian manifold in the 4D Operator Space, a novel idea we call the Operator Space Manifold Theory. Expanding on this concept, we find the true nature of the HTA and how Operator Space Manifold Theory can be used to describe and solve quantum systems by manipulating how a quantum state perceives position and momentum.

The Half Transform Ansatz: Quarkonium Dynamics in Quantum Phase Space

Since the groundwork published by Torres-Vega and Frederick, the Quantum Phase Space Representation (QPSR) has been explored as a method for solving a multitude of physical systems and describing phenomena. Most recently, Valentino A. Simpao has developed a method, the Heaviside Operational Ansatz, to solve the Time Dependent Schrodinger Equation (TDSE) in the QPSR, but there are still no general, direct methods to solve the Time Independent Schrodinger Equation in the QPSR. There is also no current formulation of quarkonium in phase space. In this paper, we describe the strong interactions of non-relativistic heavy quarks using the Cornell potential, and present a method, the Half-Transform Ansatz, to cast the Schrodinger Equation into a hyper-geometric form which can be solved for the phase space wave function and its energy eigenvalues using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method. This solution can be generalized for any two particle system with a scleronomic potential made up of polynomial and reciprocal terms. These results are compared to experimental results and other theoretical models. We also analyze the behavior of these wave functions, which suggest a correlation between radial momentum and the upper limit of existence in charm-anticharm mesons.
