We develop general expressions for the raising and lowering operators that belong to the orthogonal polynomials of hypergeometric type with discrete and continuous variable. We construct the creation and annihilation operators that correspond to the normalized polynomials and study their algebraic properties in the case of the Kravchuk/Hermite Meixner/Laguerre polynomials.
We continue to develop the method for creation and annihilation of contour singularities in the $\bar\partial$--spectral data for the two-dimensional Schrödinger equation at fixed energy. Our method is based on the Moutard-type transforms for generalized analytic functions. In this note we show that this approach successfully works for point potentials.
The exact solvability and impressive pedagogical implementation of the harmonic oscillator creation and annihilation operators make it a problem of great physical relevance and the most fundamental one in quantum mechanics. So would be the position dependent mass oscillator for the position dependent mass quantum mechanics. We, hereby, construct the position dependent mass creation and annihilation operators for the position dependent mass oscillator via two different approaches. First, via von Roos position dependent mass Hamiltonian and show that the commutation relation between the position…
A new integral representation is obtained for the star product corresponding to the $s$-ordering of the creation and annihilation operators. This parametric ordering convention introduced by Cahill and Glauber enables one to vary the type of ordering in a continuous way from normal order to antinormal order. Our derivation of the corresponding integral representation is based on using reproducing formulas for analytic and antianalytic functions. We also discuss a different representation whose kernel is a generalized function and compare the properties of this kernel with those of the kernels …
Interior-boundary conditions (IBCs) have been suggested as a possibility to circumvent the problem of ultraviolet divergences in quantum field theories. In the IBC approach, particle creation and annihilation is described with the help of linear conditions that relate the wave functions of two sectors of Fock space: $ψ^{(n)}(p)$ at an interior point $p$ and $ψ^{(n+m)}(q)$ at a boundary point $q$, typically a collision configuration. Here, we extend IBCs to the relativistic case. To do this, we make use of Dirac's concept of multi-time wave functions, i.e., wave functions $ψ(x_1,...,x_N)$ depen…
In this article we are concerned with finite dimensional Fermions, by which we mean vectors in a finite dimensional complex space embedded in the exterior algebra over itself. These Fermions are spinless but possess the characterizing anticommutativity property. We associate invariant complex vector fields on the Lie group $\mathrm{Spin}(2n+1)$ to the Fermionic creation and annihilation operators. These vector fields are elements of the complexification of the regular representation of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{so}(2n+1)$. As such, they do not satisfy the canonical anticommutation relations, …
Let $M$ be a discrete-time normal martingale that has the chaotic representation property. Then, from the space of square integrable functionals of $M$, one can construct generalized functionals of $M$. In this paper, by using a type of weights, we introduce a class of continuous linear operators acting on generalized functionals of $M$, which we call generalized weighted number (GWN) operators. We prove that GWN operators can be represented in terms of generalized annihilation and creation operators (acting on generalized functionals of $M$). We also examine commutation relations between a GW…
