Non-commutative Calculus and Discrete Physics
This paper is an expanded version of [28] and [30] where there is presented an introduction to a point of view for discrete foundations of physics. In taking a discrete stance, we find that the initial expression of physical observation naturally occurs in a context of non-commutative algebra. In this way a formalism similar to quantum mechanics occurs first, but not necessarily with the usual ...
متن کاملStochastic Calculus in Physics
The relationship of the Ito-Stratonovich stochastic calculus to studies of weakly colored noise is explained. A functional calculus approach is used to obtain an effective Fokker-Planck equation for the weakly colored noise regime. In a smooth limit, this representation produces the Stratonovich version of the ItoStratonovich calculus for white noise. It also provides an approach to steady stat...
متن کاملDiscrete Exterior Calculus
The language of modern mechanics is calculus on manifolds, and exterior calculus is an important part of that. It consists of objects like differential forms, general tensors and vector fields on manifolds, and operators that act on these. While the smooth exterior calculus has a long history going back to Cartan, Lie, Grassmann, Hodge, de Rham and many others, the need for a discrete calculus ...
متن کاملDiscrete Symbol Calculus
This paper deals with efficient numerical representation and manipulation of differential and integral operators as symbols in phase-space, i.e., functions of space x and frequency ξ. The symbol smoothness conditions obeyed by many operators in connection to smooth linear partial differential equations allow to write fast-converging, non-asymptotic expansions in adequate systems of rational Che...
متن کاملDiscrete Calculus of Sequences
We showed that is possible to define a derivative and a integral of a sequence which satisfy similar proprieties of the derivative and integral of the usual differential and integral calculus. We also study convexity of sequences that can be defined as usual by the second derivative. 1 A little introduction on calculus of finite differences We will introduce some definitions and notation from t...
