Interpretation of wave function by coherent ensembles of trajectories

We re-use some original ideas of de~Broglie, Schrödiger, Dirac and Feynman to revise the ensemble interpretation of wave function in quantum mechanics. To this end we introduce coherence (auto-concordance) of ensembles of quantum trajectories in the space-time. The coherence condition accounts phases proportional to classical action, which are in foundation of the Feynman path integral technique. Therefore, our interpretation is entirely based on well-known and tested concepts and methods of wave mechanics. Similarly to other ensemble interpretations our approach allows us to avoid all problems and paradoxes related to wave function collapse during a measurement process. Another consequence is that no quantum computation or quantum cryptography method will ever work if it assumes that a particular q-bit represents the entire wave function.

How Many Essentially Different Functional Theories Exist?

The question in the title is ambiguous. At least the understanding of words essentially different and function theory should be clarified. We discuss approaches to do that. We also present a new framework for analytic function theories based on group representations.

Operator Projective Line and Its Transformations

We introduce a concept of the operator (non-commutative) projective line PH defined by a Hilbert space H and a symplectic structure on it. Points of PH are Lagrangian subspaces of H. If a particular Lagrangian subspace is fixed then we can define SL(2,R)-action on PH. This gives a consistent framework for linear fractional transformations of operators. Some connections with spectral theory are outline as well.

Transmutations from the Covariant Transform on the Heisenberg Group and an Extended Umbral Principle

We discuss several seemingly assorted objects: the umbral calculus, generalised translations and associated transmutations, symbolic calculus of operators. The common framework for them is representations of the Weyl algebra of the Heisenberg group by ladder operators. Transporting various properties between different implementations we review some classic results and new opportunities.

Metamorphism as a covariant transform for the SSR group

Metamorphism is a recently introduced integral transform, which is useful in solving partial differential equations. Basic properties of metamorphism can be verified by direct calculations. In this paper we present metamorphism as a sort of covariant transform and derive its most important features in this way. Our main result is a characterisation of metamorphism's image space. Reading this paper does not require advanced knowledge of group representations or theory of covariant transform.

Cross-Toeplitz Operators on the Fock--Segal--Bargmann Spaces and Two-Sided Convolutions on the Heisenberg Group

We introduce an extended class of cross-Toeplitz operators which act between Fock--Segal--Bargmann spaces with different weights. It is natural to consider these operators in the framework of representation theory of the Heisenberg group. Our main technique is representation of cross-Toeplitz by two-sided relative convolutions from the Heisenberg group. In turn, two-sided convolutions are reduced to usual (one-sided) convolutions on the Heisenberg group of the doubled dimensionality. This allows us to utilise the powerful group-representation technique of coherent states, co- and contra-variant transforms, twisted convolutions, symplectic Fourier transform, etc.We discuss connections of (cross-)Toeplitz operators with pseudo-differential operators, localisation operators in time-frequency analysis, and characterisation of kernels in terms of ladder operators. The paper is written in detailed and reasonably self-contained manner to be suitable as an introduction into group-theoretical methods in phase space and time-frequency operator theory.

Tuning Co- and Contra-Variant Transforms: the Heisenberg Group Illustration

We discuss a fine tuning of the co- and contra-variant transforms through construction of specific fiducial and reconstructing vectors. The technique is illustrated on three different forms of induced representations of the Heisenberg group. The covariant transform provides intertwining operators between pairs of representations. In particular, we obtain the Zak transform as an induced covariant transform intertwining the Schrödinger representation on $\mathsf{L}_2(\mathbb{R})$ and the lattice (nilmanifold) representation on $\mathsf{L}_2\big(\mathbb{T}^2\big)$. Induced covariant transforms in other pairs are Fock-Segal-Bargmann and theta transforms. Furthermore, we describe peelings which map the group-theoretical induced representations to convenient representation spaces of analytic functions. Finally, we provide a condition which can be imposed on the reconstructing vector in order to obtain an intertwining operator from the induced contravariant transform.

Cycles Cross Ratio: an Invitation

The paper introduces cycles cross ratio, which extends the classic cross ratio of four points to various settings: conformal geometry, Lie spheres geometry, etc. Just like its classic counterpart cycles cross ratio is a measure of anharmonicity between spheres with respect to inversion. It also provides a Möbius invariant distance between spheres. Many further properties of cycles cross ratio awaiting their exploration. In abstract framework the new invariant can be considered in any projective space with a bilinear pairing.

Solving the Schrodinger Equation by Reduction to a First-order Differential Operator through a Coherent States Transform

The Legendre transform expresses dynamics of a classical system through first-order Hamiltonian equations. We consider coherent state transforms with a similar effect in quantum mechanics: they reduce certain quantum Hamiltonians to first-order partial differential operators. Therefore, the respective dynamics can be explicitly solved through a flow of points in extensions of the phase space. This generalises the geometric dynamics of a harmonic oscillator in the Fock space. We describe all Hamiltonians which are geometrised (in the above sense) by Gaussian and Airy beams and write down explicit solutions for such systems.

MoebInv: C++ libraries for manipulations in non-Euclidean geometry

The introduced package MoebInv contains two CPP libraries for symbolic, numeric and graphical manipulations in non-Euclidean geometry. The first library cycle implements basic geometric operations on cycles, which are the zero sets of certain polynomials of degree two. The second library figure operates on ensembles of cycles interconnected by Moebius-invariant relations: orthogonality, tangency, etc. Both libraries work in spaces with any dimension and arbitrary signatures of their metrics. Their essential functionality is accessible in interactive modes from Python/Jupyter shells and a dedicated Graphical User Interface. The latter does not require any coding skills and can be used in education. The package is tested on (and supplied for) various Linux distributions, Windows 10, Mac OS X and several cloud services.

Lectures on Moebius-Lie Geometry and its Extension

These lectures review the classical Moebius-Lie geometry and recent work on its extension. The latter considers ensembles of cycles (quadrics), which are interconnected through conformal-invariant geometric relations (e.g. "to be orthogonal", "to be tangent", etc.), as new objects in an extended Moebius--Lie geometry. It is shown on examples, that such ensembles of cycles naturally parameterise many other conformally-invariant families of objects, two examples---the Poincare extension and continued fractions are considered in detail. Further examples, e.g. loxodromes, wave fronts and integrable systems, are published elsewhere. The extended Moebius--Lie geometry is efficient due to a method, which reduces a collection of conformally invariant geometric relations to a system of linear equations, which may be accompanied by one fixed quadratic relation. The algorithmic nature of the method allows to implement it as a C++ library, which operates with numeric and symbolic data of cycles in spaces of arbitrary dimensionality and metrics with any signatures. Numeric calculations can be done in exact or approximate arithmetic. In the two- and three-dimensional cases illustrations and animations can be produced. An interactive Python wrapper of the library is provided as well.

Geometric Dynamics of a Harmonic Oscillator, Arbitrary Minimal Uncertainty States and the Smallest Step 3 Nilpotent Lie Group

The paper presents a new method of geometric solution of a Schrodinger equation by a construction of an equivalent first-order partial differential equation with a bigger number of variables. The equivalent equation shall be restricted to a specific subspace with auxiliary conditions which are obtained from a coherent state transform. The method is applied to the fundamental case of the harmonic oscillator and coherent state transform generated by the minimal nilpotent step three Lie group---the shear group (also known as quartic group in literature). We obtain a geometric solution for an arbitrary minimal uncertainty state used as a fiducial vector. In contrast, it is shown that the well-known Fock--Segal--Bargmann transform and the Heisenberg group require the specific fiducial vector to produce a geometric solution. A technical aspect considered in this paper is that some modification of a coherent state transform is required: although representations of the group G square-integrability modulo a subgroup H, the obtained dynamic is transverse to the homogeneous space G/H.

An Extension of Moebius--Lie Geometry with Conformal Ensembles of Cycles and Its Implementation in a GiNaC Library

We propose to consider ensembles of cycles (quadrics), which are interconnected through conformal-invariant geometric relations (e.g. "to be orthogonal", "to be tangent", etc.), as new objects in an extended Moebius--Lie geometry. It was recently demonstrated in several related papers, that such ensembles of cycles naturally parameterise many other conformally-invariant objects, e.g. loxodromes or continued fractions. The paper describes a method, which reduces a collection of conformally invariant geometric relations to a system of linear equations, which may be accompanied by one fixed quadratic relation. To show its usefulness, the method is implemented as a C++ library. It operates with numeric and symbolic data of cycles in spaces of arbitrary dimensionality and metrics with any signatures. Numeric calculations can be done in exact or approximate arithmetic. In the two- and three-dimensional cases illustrations and animations can be produced. An interactive Python wrapper of the library is provided as well.

Conformal Parametrisation of Loxodromes by Triples of Circles

We provide a parametrisation of a loxodrome by three specially arranged cycles. The parametrisation is covariant under fractional linear transformations of the complex plane and naturally encodes conformal properties of loxodromes. Selected geometrical examples illustrate the usage of parametrisation. Our work extends the set of objects in Lie sphere geometry---circle, lines and points---to the natural maximal conformally-invariant family, which also includes loxodromes.

Poincare Extension of Moebius Transformations

Given sphere preserving (Möbius) transformations in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space one can use the Poincaré extension to obtain sphere preserving transformations in a half space of $n+1$ dimensions. The Poincaré extension is usually provided either by an explicit formula or by some geometric construction. We investigate its algebraic background and describe all available options. The solution is given in terms of one-parameter subgroups of Möbius transformations acting on triples of quadratic forms. To focus on the concepts, this paper deals with the Möbius transformations of the real line only.

Symmetry, Geometry, and Quantization with Hypercomplex Numbers

These notes describe some links between the group $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, the Heisenberg group and hypercomplex numbers---complex, dual and double numbers. Relations between quantum and classical mechanics are clarified in this framework. In particular, classical mechanics can be obtained as a theory with noncommutative observables and a non-zero Planck constant if we replace complex numbers in quantum mechanics by dual numbers. Our consideration is based on induced representations which are build from complex-/dual-/double-valued characters. Dynamic equations, rules of additions of probabilities, ladder operators and uncertainty relations are discussed. Finally, we prove a Calderón--Vaillancourt-type norm estimation for relative convolutions.
