Quantum mechanics in finite dimensional Hilbert space
نویسنده
چکیده
The quantum mechanical formalism for position and momentum of a particle in a one dimensional cyclic lattice is constructively developed. Some mathematical features characteristic of the finite dimensional Hilbert space are compared with the infinite dimensional case. The construction of an unbiased basis for state determination is discussed.

FINITE OSCILLATOR MODELS DESCRIBED BY THE LIE SUPERALGEBRA sl(2|1)
The literature on quantum mechanics in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space is substantial. This paper is devoted to an algebraic model for a quantum oscillator allowing finite-dimensional representations, thus leading to a finite oscillator model. The canonical one-dimensional quantum oscillator (in the convention m = ω = ~ = 1) is described by a position operator q̂, a momentum operator p̂ and a ...
متن کاملAn extension theorem for finite positive measures on surfaces of finite dimensional unit balls in Hilbert spaces
A consistency criteria is given for a certain class of finite positive measures on the surfaces of the finite dimensional unit balls in a real separable Hilbert space. It is proved, through a Kolmogorov type existence theorem, that the class induces a unique positive measure on the surface of the unit ball in the Hilbert space. As an application, this will naturally accomplish the work of Kante...
متن کاملApplications of methods of quantum statistical mechanics to two - dimensional electron systems
1 Abstract The random matrix ensembles are applied to the quantum statistical two-dimensional systems of electrons. The quantum systems are studied using the finite dimensional real, complex and quaternion Hilbert spaces of the eigenfunctions. The linear operators describing the systems act on these Hilbert spaces and they are treated as random matrices in generic bases of the eigenfunctions. T...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics in Infinite Symplectic Volume
We quantise complex, infinite–dimensional projective space CP(H). We apply the result to quantise a complex, finite–dimensional, classical phase space C whose symplectic volume is infinite, by holomorphically embedding it into CP(H). The embedding is univocally determined by requiring it to be an isometry between the Bergman metric on C and the Fubini–Study metric on CP(H). Then the Hilbert–spa...
متن کاملWigner distributions in quantum mechanics
The Weyl-Wigner description of quantum mechanical operators and states in classical phase-space language is well known for Cartesian systems. We describe a new approach based on ideas of Dirac which leads to the same results but with interesting additional insights. A way to set up Wigner distributions in an interesting non-Cartesian case, when the configuration space is a compact connected Lie...
