This work deals with the sonification of a quantum mechanical system and the processes that occur as a result of its quantum mechanical nature and interactions with other systems. The quantum harmonic oscillator is not only regarded as a system with sonifiable characteristics but also as a storage medium for quantum information. By representing sound information quantum mechanically and storing...

Recursion formulae of the N-particle partition function, the occupation numbers and its fluctuations are given using the single-particle partition function. Exact results are presented for fermions and bosons in a common one-dimensional harmonic oscillator potential, for the three-dimensional harmonic oscillator approximations are tested. Applications to excited nuclei and Bose-Einstein condens...

A variational and perturbative treatment is provided for a family of generalized spiked harmonic oscillator Hamiltonians H = − d dx + Bx + A x + λ xα ,where B > 0, A ≥ 0 , and α and λ denote two real positive parameters. The method makes use of the function space spanned by the solutions |n> of Schrödinger’s equation for the potential V (x) = Bx + A x . Compact closed-form expressions are obtai...

Certain solutions to Harper’s equation are discrete analogues of (and approximations to) the Hermite–Gaussian functions. They are the energy eigenfunctions of a discrete algebraic analogue of the harmonic oscillator, and they lead to a definition of a discrete fractional Fourier transform (FT). The discrete fractional FT is essentially the time-evolution operator of the discrete harmonic oscill...

Here, a self-oscillating mixer is experimentally demonstrated employing both the fundamental and harmonic signals generated by the oscillator sub-circuit in the mixing process. The resulting circuit is a dual-band down-converting mixer that can operate in the C-band, or in the X-band. The oscillator uses the active super harmonic coupling to enforce the quadrature relationship of the fundamenta...

In the present paper, we study uniform approximation of bounded functions on an open subset of the Euclidean space d by means of harmonic functions arising as solutions of the classical or generalized Dirichlet problem. As a consequence of results obtained we establish a harmonic analogue of Sarason’s H + C – theorem; see e. g. [5]. We shall consider an arbitrary bounded open subset of , d ≥ 2....

Abstract. The Levi-Civita transformation is applied in the two-dimensional (2D) Dirac and Klein-Gordon (KG) equations with equal external scalar and vector potentials. The Coulomb and harmonic oscillator problems are connected via the LeviCivita transformation. These connections lead to an approach to solve the Coulomb problems using the results of the harmonic oscillator potential in the above...

Supersymmetric quantum mechanics is a powerful tool for generating exactly solvable potentials departing from a given initial one. If applied to the harmonic oscillator, a family of Hamiltonians ruled by polynomial Heisenberg algebras is obtained. In this paper it will be shown that the SUSY partner Hamiltonians of the harmonic oscillator can produce evolution loops. The corresponding geometric...

We study non-Gaussianity induced by a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson with a cosine-type scalar potential. We focus on how the non-Gaussianity is affected when the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson rolls down from near the top of the scalar potential where the deviation from a quadratic potential is large. We find that the resultant non-Gaussianity is similar to that obtained in the quadratic potential...
