Conjugate Operators of 1D-harmonic Oscillator

A conjugate operator $T$ of one-dimensional harmonic oscillator $N$ is defined by an operator satisfying canonical commutation relation $[N,T]=-i\one$ on some domain but not necessarily a dense one. Examples of conjugate operators include the angle operator $\TA$ and the Galapon operator $\TG$. Let $\sT$ denote a set of conjugate operators of $N$ of the form $T_{ω,m}=\frac{i}{m}\log(ω\one-L^m)$ with $(ω, m)\in \overline{\DD}\times (\NN\setminus\{0\})$, where $L$ is a shift operator and $\DD$ denotes the open unit disc in the complex plane $\CC$. A classification of $\sT$ is given as $\sT=\sT_{\{0\}}\cup\sT_{\DD\setminus\{0\}}\cup \sT_{\partial \DD}$, where $\TA\in\sT_{\{0\}}$ and $\TG\in \sT_{\partial \DD}$. The classification is specified by a pair of parameters $(\om,m)\in\CC\times\NN$. Finally the time evolution $T_{\om,m}(t)=e^{itN} T_{\om,m}e^{-itN}$ for $T_{\om,m}\in\sT$ is investigated, and it is shown that $T_{\om,m}(t)$ is periodic with respect to~$t$.

Self-adjointness of unbounded time operators

Time operators for an abstract semi-bounded self-adjoint operator $H$ with purely discrete spectrum is considered. The existence of a bounded self-adjoint time operator $T$ for $H$ is known as Galapon time operator. In this paper, a self-adjoint but unbounded time operator $T$ of $H$ is constructed.

Time Operators of Harmonic Oscillators and Their Representations

A time operator $\hat T_\eps$ of the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator $ \hat h_\eps=\half(p^2+\eps q^2)$ is rigorously constructed. It is formally expressed as $ \hat T_\eps=\half\frac{1}{\sqrt \eps } (\arctan (\sqrt \eps \hat t_0)+\arctan (\sqrt \eps \hat t_1))$ with $\hat t_0=p^{-1}q$ and $\hat t_1=qp^{-1}$. It is shown that the canonical commutation relation $[h_\eps, \hat T_\eps ]=-i\one$ holds true on a dense domain in the sense of sesqui-linear forms, and the limit of $\hat T_\eps $ as $\eps\to 0$ is shown. Finally a matrix representation of $\hat T_\eps$ and its analytic continuation are given.

Spectral mapping theorem of an abstract non-unitary quantum walk

This paper continues the previous work (Quantum Inf. Process (2019)) by two authors of the present paper about a spectral mapping property of chiral symmetric unitary operators. In physics, they treat non-unitary time-evolution operators to consider quantum walks in open systems. In this paper, we generalize the above result to include a chiral symmetric non-unitary operator whose coin operator only has two eigenvalues. As a result, the spectra of such non-unitary operators are included in the (possibly non-unit) circle and the real axis in the complex plane. We also give some examples of our abstract results, such as non-unitary quantum walks defined by Mochizuki et al. Moreover, we present an application to the Ihara zeta functions and correlated random walks on regular graphs, which are not quantum walks.

The Witten index for one-dimensional split-step quantum walks under the non-Fredholm condition

It is recently shown that a split-step quantum walk possesses a chiral symmetry, and that a certain well-defined index can be naturally assigned to it. The index is a well-defined Fredholm index if and only if the associated unitary time-evolution operator has spectral gaps at both $+1$ and $-1.$ In this paper we extend the existing index formula for the Fredholm case to encompass the non-Fredholm case (i.e., gapless case). We make use of a natural extension of the Fredholm index to the non-Fredholm case, known as the Witten index. The aim of this paper is to fully classify the Witten index of the split-step quantum walk by employing the spectral shift function for a rank one perturbation of a fourth order difference operator. It is also shown in this paper that the Witten index can take half-integer values in the non-Fredholm case.

Time operators for continuous-time and discrete-time quantum walks

We construct concrete examples of time operators for both continuous and discrete-time homogeneous quantum walks, and we determine their deficiency indices and spectra. For a discrete-time quantum walk, the time operator can be self-adjoint if the time evolution operator has a non-zero winding number. In this case, its spectrum becomes a discrete set of real numbers.
