    Fibre bundle formulation of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. 0. Preliminary considerations: Quantum mechanics from a geometric-observer's viewpoint

    Full text link
    We propose a version of the non-relativistic quantum mechanics in which the pure states of a quantum system are described as sections of a Hilbert (generally infinitely-dimensional) fibre bundle over the space-time. There evolution is governed via (a kind of) a parallel transport in this bundle. Some problems concerning observables are considered. There are derived the equations of motion for the state sections and observables. We show that up to a constant the matrix of the coefficients of the evolution operator (transport) coincides with the matrix of the Hamiltonian of the investigated quantum system.Comment: 15 standard LaTeX 2e (11pt, A4) pages.

    Auto-parallel equation as Euler-Lagrange's equation in spaces with affine connections and metrics

    Full text link
    The auto-parallel equation over spaces with affine connections and metrics is considered as a result of the application of the method of Lagrangians with covariant derivatives (MLCD) on a given Lagrangian density.Comment: 19 pages, LaTe

    Two variable deformations of the Chebyshev measure

    Full text link
    We construct one and two parameter deformations of the two dimensional Chebyshev polynomials with simple recurrence coefficients, following the algorithm in [3]. Using inverse scattering techniques, we compute the corresponding orthogonality measures.Comment: 16 page

    Fej\'er-Riesz factorizations and the structure of bivariate polynomials orthogonal on the bi-circle

    Full text link
    We give a complete characterization of the positive trigonometric polynomials Q(\theta,\phi) on the bi-circle, which can be factored as Q(\theta,\phi)=|p(e^{i\theta},e^{i\phi})|^2 where p(z,w) is a polynomial nonzero for |z|=1 and |w|\leq 1. The conditions are in terms of recurrence coefficients associated with the polynomials in lexicographical and reverse lexicographical ordering orthogonal with respect to the weight 1/(4\pi^2Q(\theta,\phi)) on the bi-circle. We use this result to describe how specific factorizations of weights on the bi-circle can be translated into identities relating the recurrence coefficients for the corresponding polynomials and vice versa. In particular, we characterize the Borel measures on the bi-circle for which the coefficients multiplying the reverse polynomials associated with the two operators: multiplication by z in lexicographical ordering and multiplication by w in reverse lexicographical ordering vanish after a particular point. This can be considered as a spectral type result analogous to the characterization of the Bernstein-Szeg\H{o} measures on the unit circle

    Normal frames and the validity of the equivalence principle. III. The case along smooth maps with separable points of self-intersection

    Get PDF
    The equivalence principle is treated on a mathematically rigorous base on sufficiently general subsets of a differentiable manifold. This is carried out using the basis of derivations of the tensor algebra over that manifold. Necessary and/or sufficient conditions of existence, uniqueness, and holonomicity of these bases in which the components of the derivations of the tensor algebra over it vanish on these subsets, are studied. The linear connections are considered in this context. It is shown that the equivalence principle is identically valid at any point, and along any path, in every gravitational theory based on linear connections. On higher dimensional submanifolds it may be valid only in certain exceptional cases.Comment: 15 standard LaTeX 2e (11pt, A4) pages. The package amsfonts is require
