Unusual scalar products in Hilbert space of Quantum Mechanics: non-Hermitian square-well model with two coupled channels
نویسنده
چکیده
A pseudo-Hermitian square-well model “with spin” is proposed, solved and discussed. The domain of parameters is determined where all the bound-state energies remain real and where the necessary transition from the original elementary non-physical indefinite pseudo-metric to another, more involved but correct positive-definite physical metric is possible.

Quantum Systems and Alternative Unitary Descriptions Received (day Month Year) Revised (day Month Year)
Motivated by the existence of bi-Hamiltonian classical systems and the correspondence principle, in this paper we analyze the problem of finding Hermitian scalar products which turn a given flow on a Hilbert space into a unitary one. We show how different invariant Hermitian scalar products give rise to different descriptions of a quantum system in the Ehrenfest and Heisenberg picture.
متن کاملAlternative Descriptions in Quaternionic Quantum Mechanics
We characterize the quasianti-Hermitian quaternionic operators in QQM by means of their spectra; moreover, we state a necessary and sufficient condition for a set of quasianti-Hermitian quaternionic operators to be anti-Hermitian with respect to a uniquely defined positive scalar product in a infinite dimensional (right) quaternionic Hilbert space. According to such results we obtain two altern...
متن کاملOn the Role of the Normalization Factors κ n and of the Pseudo - Metric P 6 = P † in Crypto - Hermitian Quantum Models ?
Among P-pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians H = P−1H† P with real spectra, the “weakly pseudo-Hermitian” ones (i.e., those employing non-self-adjoint P 6 = P†) form a remarkable subfamily. We list some reasons why it deserves a special attention. In particular we show that whenever P 6 = P†, the current involutive operator of charge C gets complemented by a nonequivalent alternative involutive quasip...
متن کاملHermitian metric on quantum spheres
The paper deal with non-commutative geometry. The notion of quantumspheres was introduced by podles. Here we define the quantum hermitianmetric on the quantum spaces and find it for the quantum spheres.
متن کاملConceptual Problems in Scattering from Localized non-Hermitian Potentials
We highlight the conceptual problems that arise when one applies the quasi-Hermitian framework to analyze scattering from localized non-Hermitian potentials, in particular complex square-wells or deltafunctions. When treated in the framework of conventional quantum mechanics, these potentials are generally considered as effective theories, in which probability is not conserved because of proces...
