Schwerdtfeger-Fillmore-Springer-Cnops Construction Implemented in GiNaC

This paper presents an implementation of the Schwerdtfeger-Fillmore-Springer-Cnops construction (SFSCc) along with illustrations of its usage. SFSCc linearises the linear-fraction action of the Moebius group in R^n. This has clear advantages in several theoretical and applied fields including engineering. Our implementation is based on the Clifford algebra capacities of the GiNaC computer algebra system (http://www.ginac.de/), which were described in cs.MS/0410044. The core of this realisation of SFSCc is done for an arbitrary dimension of R^n with a metric given by an arbitrary bilinear form. We also present a subclass for two dimensional cycles (i.e. circles, parabolas and hyperbolas), which add some 2D specific routines including a visualisation to PostScript files through the MetaPost (http://www.tug.org/metapost.html) or Asymptote (http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/) packages. This software is the backbone of many results published in math.CV/0512416 and we use its applications their for demonstration. The library can be ported (with various level of required changes) to other CAS with Clifford algebras capabilities similar to GiNaC. There is an ISO image of a Live Debian DVD attached to this paper as an auxiliary file, a copy is stored on Google Drive as well.

Remark on Continued Fractions, Moebius Transformations and Cycles

In a recent paper A.Beardon and I.Short proposed to use chains of tangent horocycles as an extended tool describing continued fractions. We review the origin of such construction from the Moebius transformations point of view. Related descriptions with chains of orthogonal horocycles emerged as a result. The approach is extended to several dimensions in a way which is compatible to the early proposition of A.Beardon based on Clifford algebras.

Uncertainty and Analyticity

We describe a connection between minimal uncertainty states and holomorphy-type conditions on the images of the respective wavelet transform. The most familiar example is the Fock-Segal-Bargmann transform generated by the Gaussian, however, this also occurs under more general assumptions.

Erlangen Program at Large-1: Geometry of Invariants

This paper presents geometrical foundation for a systematic treatment of three main (elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic) types of analytic function theories based on the representation theory of SL(2,R) group. We describe here geometries of corresponding domains. The principal role is played by Clifford algebras of matching types. In this paper we also generalise the Fillmore-Springer-Cnops construction which describes cycles as points in the extended space. This allows to consider many algebraic and geometric invariants of cycles within the Erlangen program approach. For an easy-reading introduction see arXiv:math/0607387. An outline of the whole approach is given in arXiv:1006.2115.

Erlangen Program at Large-2.5: Induced Representations and Hypercomplex Numbers

In the search for hypercomplex analytic functions on the half-plane, we review the construction of induced representations of the group G=SL(2,R). Firstly we note that G-action on the homogeneous space G/H, where H is any one-dimensional subgroup of SL(2,R), is a linear-fractional transformation on hypercomplex numbers. Thus we investigate various hypercomplex characters of subgroups H. The correspondence between the structure of the group SL(2,R) and hypercomplex numbers can be illustrated in many other situations as well. We give examples of induced representations of SL(2,R) on spaces of hypercomplex valued functions, which are unitary in some sense. Raising/lowering operators for various subgroup prompt hypercomplex coefficients as well. The paper contains both English and Russian versions. Keywords: induced representation, unitary representations, SL(2,R), semisimple Lie group, complex numbers, dual numbers, double numbers, Moebius transformations, split-complex numbers, parabolic numbers, hyperbolic numbers, raising/lowering operators, creation/annihilation operators

Classical/Quantum=Commutative/Noncommutative?

In 1926, Dirac stated that quantum mechanics can be obtained from classical theory through a change in the only rule. In his view, classical mechanics is formulated through commutative quantities (c-numbers) while quantum mechanics requires noncommutative one (q-numbers). The rest of theory can be unchanged. In this paper we critically review Dirac's proposition. We provide a natural formulation of classical mechanics through noncommutative quantities with a non-zero Planck constant. This is done with the help of the nilpotent unit, which squares to zero. Thus, the crucial rôle in quantum theory shall be attributed to the usage of complex numbers. The paper provides English and Russian versions.

Erlangen Programme at Large: An Overview

This is an overview of Erlangen Programme at Large. Study of objects and properties, which are invariant under a group action, is very fruitful far beyond the traditional geometry. In this paper we demonstrate this on the example of the group SL(2,R). Starting from the conformal geometry we develop analytic functions and apply these to functional calculus. Finally we link this to quantum mechanics and conclude by a list of open problems. Keywords: Special linear group, Hardy space, Clifford algebra, elliptic, parabolic, hyperbolic, complex numbers, dual numbers, double numbers, split-complex numbers, Cauchy-Riemann-Dirac operator, Möbius transformations, functional calculus, spectrum, quantum mechanics, non-commutative geometry

Erlangen Programme at Large 3.1: Hypercomplex Representations of the Heisenberg Group and Mechanics

In the spirit of geometric quantisation we consider representations of the Heisenberg(--Weyl) group induced by hypercomplex characters of its centre. This allows to gather under the same framework, called p-mechanics, the three principal cases: quantum mechanics (elliptic character), hyperbolic mechanics and classical mechanics (parabolic character). In each case we recover the corresponding dynamic equation as well as rules for addition of probabilities. Notably, we are able to obtain whole classical mechanics without any kind of semiclassical limit h->0. Keywords: Heisenberg group, Kirillov's method of orbits, geometric quantisation, quantum mechanics, classical mechanics, Planck constant, dual numbers, double numbers, hypercomplex, jet spaces, hyperbolic mechanics, interference, Segal--Bargmann representation, Schroedinger representation, dynamics equation, harmonic and unharmonic oscillator, contextual probability

Erlangen Programme at Large 3.2: Ladder Operators in Hypercomplex Mechanics

We revise the construction of creation/annihilation operators in quantum mechanics based on the representation theory of the Heisenberg and symplectic groups. Besides the standard harmonic oscillator (the elliptic case) we similarly treat the repulsive oscillator (hyperbolic case) and the free particle (the parabolic case). The respective hypercomplex numbers turn to be handy on this occasion, this provides a further illustration to Similarity and Correspondence Principle. Keywords: Heisenberg group, Kirillov's method of orbits, geometric quantisation, quantum mechanics, classical mechanics, Planck constant, dual numbers, double numbers, hypercomplex, jet spaces, hyperbolic mechanics, interference, Fock--Segal--Bargmann representation, Schrödinger representation, dynamics equation, harmonic and unharmonic oscillator, contextual probability, symplectic group, metaplectic representation, Shale--Weil representation

Covariant Transform

The paper develops theory of covariant transform, which is inspired by the wavelet construction. It was observed that many interesting types of wavelets (or coherent states) arise from group representations which are not square integrable or vacuum vectors which are not admissible. Covariant transform extends an applicability of the popular wavelets construction to classic examples like the Hardy space H_2, Banach spaces, covariant functional calculus and many others. Keywords: Wavelets, coherent states, group representations, Hardy space, Littlewood-Paley operator, functional calculus, Berezin calculus, Radon transform, Moebius map, maximal function, affine group, special linear group, numerical range, characteristic function, functional model.

Comment on `Do we have a consistent non-adiabatic quantum-classical mechanics?'

We argue with claims of the paper [Agostini F., Caprara S. and Ciccotti G., Europhys. Lett. EPL, 78 (2007) Art. 30001, 6] that the quantum-classic bracket introduced in [arXiv:quant-ph/0506122] produces "artificial coupling" and has "genuinely classical nature". Keywords: p-mechanics, quantum, classic, commutator, Poisson bracket, mixing, coupling, semi-classical

Computation and Dynamics: Classical and Quantum

We discuss classical and quantum computations in terms of corresponding Hamiltonian dynamics. This allows us to introduce quantum computations which involve parallel processing of both: the data and programme instructions. Using mixed quantum-classical dynamics we look for a full cost of computations on quantum computers with classical terminals.
