On Conformally Compactified Phase Space
نویسنده
چکیده
Conformally compactified phase space is conceived as an automorphism space for the global action of the extended conformal group. Space time and momentum space appear then as conformally dual, that is conjugate with respect to conformal reflections. If now the former, as generally agreed, is appropriate for the description of classical mechanics in euclidean geometrical form, then the latter results appropriate for the description of quantum mechanics in spinor geometrical form. In such description, fermion multiplets will naturally appear as consequence of higher symmetries and furthermore, the euclidean geometry, bilinearly resulting from that of spinors, will a priori guarantee the absence of ultraviolet divergences when dealing with quantum field theories. Some further possible consequences of conformal reflections of interest for physics, are briefly outlined.

On conformal reflections in compactified phase space
Some results from arguments of research dealt with R. Raczka are exposed and extended. In particular new arguments are brought in favor of the conjecture, formulated with him, that both space-time and momentum may be conformally compactified, building up a compact phase space of automorphism for the conformal group, where conformal reflections determine a convolution between space-time and mome...

The Future Tube T + n of n-dimensional Minkowski spacetime may be identified with the reduced phase space P , or " space of motions " of a particle moving in (n + 1)-dimensional Anti-de-Sitter Spacetime. Both are isomorphic to a homogeneous bounded domain in C n whose Shilov boundary may be identified with n-dimensional conformally compactified Minkowski spacetime.

With the example of the spherically symmetric scalar wave equation on Minkowski space-time we demonstrate that a fully pseudospectral scheme (i.e. spectral with respect to both spatial and time directions) can be applied for solving hyperbolic equations. The calculations are carried out within the framework of conformally compactified space-times. In our formulation, the equation becomes singul...
متن کاملLocally conformally Kähler manifolds with potential
A locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifold M is one which is covered by a Kähler manifold M̃ with the deck transform group acting conformally on M̃ . If M admits a holomorphic flow, acting on M̃ conformally, it is called a Vaisman manifold. Neither the class of LCK manifolds nor that of Vaisman manifolds is stable under small deformations. We define a new class of LCK-manifolds, called LCK manifo...
