    Dynamical Systems and Quantum Bicrossproduct Algebras

    Full text link
    We present a unified study of some aspects of quantum bicrossproduct algebras of inhomogeneous Lie algebras, like Poincare, Galilei and Euclidean in N dimensions. The action associated to the bicrossproduct structure allows to obtain a nonlinear action over a new group linked to the translations. This new nonlinear action associates a dynamical system to each generator which is the object of study in this paper.Comment: LaTeX, 12 page

    Quantum Physics and Signal Processing in Rigged Hilbert Spaces by means of Special Functions, Lie Algebras and Fourier and Fourier-like Transforms

    Full text link
    Quantum Mechanics and Signal Processing in the line R, are strictly related to Fourier Transform and Weyl-Heisenberg algebra. We discuss here the addition of a new discrete variable that measures the degree of the Hermite functions and allows to obtain the projective algebra io(2). A Rigged Hilbert space is found and a new discrete basis in R obtained. The operators {O[R]} defined on R are shown to belong to the Universal Enveloping Algebra UEA[io(2)] allowing, in this way, their algebraic discussion. Introducing in the half-line a Fourier-like Transform, the procedure is extended to R^+ and can be easily generalized to R^n and to spherical reference systems.Comment: 12 pages, Contribution to the 30th International Colloquium on Group Theoretical Methods in Physics, July 14-18, 2014, Gent (Belgium

    SU(2), Associated Laguerre Polynomials and Rigged Hilbert Spaces

    Get PDF
    We present a family of unitary irreducible representations of SU(2) realized in the plane, in terms of the Laguerre polynomials. These functions are similar to the spherical harmonics defined on the sphere. Relations with an space of square integrable functions defined on the plane, L2(R2)L^2(\R^2), are analyzed. We have also enlarged this study using rigged Hilbert spaces that allow to work with iscrete and continuous bases like is the case here.Comment: 10 page

    Intertwining Symmetry Algebras of Quantum Superintegrable Systems

    Get PDF
    We present an algebraic study of a kind of quantum systems belonging to a family of superintegrable Hamiltonian systems in terms of shape-invariant intertwinig operators, that span pairs of Lie algebras like (su(n),so(2n))(su(n),so(2n)) or (su(p,q),so(2p,2q))(su(p,q),so(2p,2q)). The eigenstates of the associated Hamiltonian hierarchies belong to unitary representations of these algebras. It is shown that these intertwining operators, related with separable coordinates for the system, are very useful to determine eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonians in the hierarchy. An study of the corresponding superintegrable classical systems is also included for the sake of completness

    Bicrossproduct structure of the null-plane quantum Poincare algebra

    Full text link
    A nonlinear change of basis allows to show that the non-standard quantum deformation of the (3+1) Poincare algebra has a bicrossproduct structure. Quantum universal R-matrix, Pauli-Lubanski and mass operators are presented in the new basis.Comment: 7 pages, LaTe

    Heisenberg–Weyl Groups and Generalized Hermite Functions

    Get PDF
    We introduce a multi-parameter family of bases in the Hilbert space L2(R) that are associated to a set of Hermite functions, which also serve as a basis for L2(R). The Hermite functions are eigenfunctions of the Fourier transform, a property that is, in some sense, shared by these "generalized Hermite functions". The construction of these new bases is grounded on some symmetry properties of the real line under translations, dilations and reflexions as well as certain properties of the Fourier transform. We show how these generalized Hermite functions are transformed under the unitary representations of a series of groups, including the Heisenberg–Weyl group and some of their extensions
