Quantum Mechanics on the h-deformed Quantum Plane
We find the covariant deformed Heisenberg algebra and the Laplace-Beltrami
operator on the extended -deformed quantum plane and solve the Schr\"odinger
equations explicitly for some physical systems on the quantum plane. In the
commutative limit the behaviour of a quantum particle on the quantum plane
becomes that of the quantum particle on the Poincar\'e half-plane, a surface of
constant negative Gaussian curvature. We show the bound state energy spectra
for particles under specific potentials depend explicitly on the deformation
parameter . Moreover, it is shown that bound states can survive on the
quantum plane in a limiting case where bound states on the Poincar\'e
half-plane disappear.Comment: 16pages, Latex2e, Abstract and section 4 have been revise
Higher Order Potential Expansion for the Continuous Limits of the Toda Hierarchy
A method for introducing the higher order terms in the potential expansion to
study the continuous limits of the Toda hierarchy is proposed in this paper.
The method ensures that the higher order terms are differential polynomials of
the lower ones and can be continued to be performed indefinitly. By introducing
the higher order terms, the fewer equations in the Toda hierarchy are needed in
the so-called recombination method to recover the KdV hierarchy. It is shown
that the Lax pairs, the Poisson tensors, and the Hamiltonians of the Toda
hierarchy tend towards the corresponding ones of the KdV hierarchy in
continuous limit.Comment: 20 pages, Latex, to be published in Journal of Physics
