We study the zero modes of the operator $H_f=D^*_fD_f$, with a Dirac type operator $D_f$, acting on the spinor bundle over a closed even dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$. The operator $D_f=D+ifI$ is a deformation of the Dirac operator $D$ by a smooth function $f$. We obtain sufficient conditions on the deformation function that guarantee the positivity of the operator $H_f$, that is, the absence of zero modes. We also show that these conditions are not necessary and provide an explicit counterexample of a zero mode of the operator $H_f$.
The relativistic wave equations determine the dynamics of quantum fields in the context of quantum field theory. One of the conventional tools for dealing with the relativistic bound-state problem is the Klein-Fock-Gordon equation. In this work, using a developed scheme, we present how to surmount the centrifugal part and solve the modified Klein-Fock-Gordon equation for the linear combination of Hulthén and Yukawa potentials. In particular, we show that the relativistic energy eigenvalues and corresponding radial wave functions are obtained from supersymmetric quantum mechanics by applying th…
Factorization of nonlinear supersymmetry in one-dimensional Quantum Mechanics. I: general classification of reducibility and analysis of the third-order algebra
Renormalization of the inverse square potential usually breaks its classical conformal invariance. In a strongly attractive potential, the scaling symmetry is broken to a discrete subgroup while, in a strongly repulsive potential, it is preserved at quantum level. In the intermediate, weak-medium range of the coupling, an anomalous length scale appears due to a flow of the renormalization group away from a critical point. We show that potentials with couplings in the strongly-repulsive and in the weak-medium ranges can be related by a dynamical supersymmetry. Imposing SUSY invariance unifies t…
We study entanglement of spin degrees of freedom with continuous one in supersymmetric (SUSY) quantum mechanics. Concurrence is determined by mean value of spin and is calculated explicitly for SUSY states. We show that eigenstates of supercharges are maximally entangled. As an example the entanglement of atom state with photon state and SUSY in Jaynes-Cummings model are considered.
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 phases will be as well studied.
The aim of this paper is to present a possible framework for incorporating a superspace formulation of supersymmetry into the formalism of noncommutative geometry à la Alain Connes. In analogy with the almost-commutative (AC) manifold construction of field theory, a base space is taken to be the superspace $\mathbb{R}^{3 | 2}$, with associated 2-point (Grassmann valued) finite space. The data of the spectral triple is explored, including decorations, i.e. algebra, Hilbert space, grading, real structure, and Dirac operator. The gauge fields arising from the inner fluctuations of the Dirac opera…
In this paper, the bound state solution of the modified Klein-Fock-Gordon equation is obtained for the Hulthén plus ring-shaped lake potential by using the developed scheme to overcome the centrifugal part. The energy eigenvalues and corresponding radial and azimuthal wave functions are defined for any $l\neq0$ angular momentum case on the conditions that scalar potential is whether equal and nonequal to vector potential, the bound state solutions of the Klein-Fock-Gordon equation of the Hulthén plus ring-shaped like potential are obtained by Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) and supersymmetric quantum me…
We propose an extended version of supersymmetric quantum mechanics which can be useful if the Hamiltonian of the physical system under investigation is not Hermitian. The method is based on the use of two, in general different, superpotentials. Bi-coherent states of the Gazeau-Klauder type are constructed and their properties are analyzed. Some examples are also discussed, including an application to the Black-Scholes equation, one of the most important equations in Finance.
Along the years, supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSY QM) has been used for studying solvable quantum potentials. It is the simplest method to build Hamiltonians with prescribed spectra in the spectral design. The key is to pair two Hamiltonians through a finite order differential operator. Some related subjects can be simply analyzed, as the algebras ruling both Hamiltonians and the associated coherent states. The technique has been applied also to periodic potentials, where the spectra consist of allowed and forbidden energy bands. In addition, a link with non-linear second order different…
In a recent paper a pair of operators $a$ and $b$ satisfying the equations $a^\dagger a=bb^\dagger+γ\1$ and $aa^\dagger=b^\dagger b+δ\1$, has been considered, and their nature of ladder operators has been deduced and analysed. Here, motivated by the spreading interest in non self-adjoint operators in Quantum Mechanics, we extend this situation to a set of four operators, $c$, $d$, $r$ and $s$, satisfying $ dc=rs+γ\1$ and $cd=sr+δ\1$, and we show that they are also ladder operators. We show their connection with biorthogonal families of vectors and with the so-called $\D$-pseudo bosons. Some ex…
The hierarchy problem asks why the mass of the Higgs particle is so much lighter than the Planck-scale mass. Considering the interaction of the Higgs particle and an elementary particle in the Planck-scale, to cope with that big difference, the conventional calculation needs the help of an arbitrary, excessive fine-tuning, that is, the huge cancellation between the bare mass term and the quantum correction, without obeying a physical principle such as symmetry. Thus, it is often said to be unnatural. On the other hand, the theory of supersymmetry (SUSY) is a strong candidate naturally to solve…
