Dynamics of the Density Cube

Density cube theory extends the canonical quantum density matrix $\rho_{ij}$ with the addition of an extra index to $\rho_{ijk}$. The elements of the density cube with two different indices, $\rho_{iij}$ and $\rho_{ijj}$, correspond to the real and imaginary parts of the off-diagonal element $\rho_{ij}$ of the density matrix and describe double-path interference, while those with three different indices describe non-canonical triple-path interference. In this letter, we propose an equation of motion for the density cube, obtained from the quantization of ternary Nambu dynamics, and find that pairs of triple-path interferences oscillate into each other.

Constraints on a Generalization of Geometric Quantum Mechanics from Neutrino and $B^0$-$\overline{B^0}$ Oscillations

Nambu Quantum Mechanics, proposed in Phys. Lett. B536, 305 (2002), is a deformation of canonical Quantum Mechanics in which the manifold over which the "phase" of an energy eigenstate time evolves is modified. This generalization affects oscillation and interference phenomena through the introduction of two deformation parameters that quantify the extent of deviation from canonical Quantum Mechanics. In this paper, we constrain these parameters utilizing atmospheric neutrino oscillation data, and $B^0$-$\overline{B^0}$ oscillation data from Belle. Surprisingly, the bound from atmospheric neutrinos is stronger than the bound from Belle. Various features of Nambu Quantum Mechanics are also discussed.
