P-adic Schrödinger-type equation

A Schrödinger-type equation is considered in relation to p-adic quantum mechanics. We discuss the appropriate notion of differential operators. A solution of the Schrödinger-type equation is given and a new set of vacuum states for the p-adic quantum harmonic oscillator is presented. The correspondence principle with the standard quantum mechanics is also discussed.     

Towards Unification of General Relativity and Quantum Theory: Dendrogram Representation of the Event-Universe

Following Smolin, we proceed to unification of general relativity and quantum theory by operating solely with events, i.e., without appealing to physical systems and space-time. The universe is modelled as a dendrogram (finite tree) expressing the hierarchic relations between events. This is the observational (epistemic) model; the ontic model is based on p-adic numbers (infinite trees). Hence, we use novel mathematics: not only space-time but even real numbers are not in use. Here, the p-adic space (which is zero-dimensional) serves as the base for the holographic image of the universe. In this way our theory is connected with p-adic physics; in particular, p-adic string theory and complex disordered systems (p-adic representation of the Parisi matrix for spin glasses). Our Dendrogramic-Holographic (DH) theory matches perfectly with the Mach’s principle and Brans–Dicke theory. We found a surprising informational interrelation between the fundamental constants, h, c, G, and their DH analogues, h(D), c(D), G(D). DH theory is part of Wheeler’s project on the information restructuring of physics. It is also a step towards the Unified Field theory. The universal potential V is nonlocal, but this is relational DH nonlocality. V can be coupled to the Bohm quantum potential by moving to the real representation. This coupling enhances the role of the Bohm potential.     

Quantum observables in classical frameworks

A procedure of classical extension of a theory is worked out on the basis of a natural generalization of the notion of observable, the states of the extended theory being the probability measures on the pure states of the original one. Such a classical extension applies to quantum theory, and the qualifying features of quantum observables are preserved in the extended model.     

Two-Parameter Deformations of SU(2) and SU (1,l) Algebras

The algebras SU(2) and SU(1,1) are promoted to two-parameter quantum universal enveloping algebras (QUEA) by a doubleparameter deformation in this paper. The discrete unitary irreducible representations and their deformed coherent states are studied. The deformed generators are given by a Jordan-Schwinger realization and a Bargmann-Fock representation. It is also interesting that the two-parameter deformed coherent states are found to relate to the oneparameter deformed ones by a simple scaling transformation and this can be used to derive the completeness relation of the former.

Quantum filtering for multiple input multiple output systems driven by arbitrary zero-mean jointly Gaussian input fields

In this paper, we treat the quantum filtering problem for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) Markovian open quantum systems coupled to multiple boson fields in an arbitrary zero-mean jointly Gaussian state, using the reference probability approach formulated by Bouten and van Handel as a quantum version of a well-known method of the same name from classical nonlinear filtering theory, and exploiting the generalized Araki-Woods representation of Gough. This includes Gaussian field states such as vacuum, squeezed vacuum, thermal, and squeezed thermal states as special cases. The contribution is a derivation of the general quantum filtering equation (or stochastic master equation as they are known in the quantum optics community) in the full MIMO setup for any zero-mean jointly Gaussian input field states, up to some mild rank assumptions on certain matrices relating to the measurement vector.     

Description of physical systems

A general “logical” scheme, containing both classical and quantum mechanics, is developed on the basis of plausible axioms. We introduce the division of states and yes-no measurements into sharp and diffuse ones, and prove that sharp states possess their carriers. Owing to this result, the existence of lattice joins and meets is proved for a wide class of elements of the logic. This “semi-lattice” structure gives the familiar lattice picture for special cases of classical and quantum mechanics. The notion of quantum superposition is introduced in this general scheme. It is proved that if in a theory appear nontrivial quantum superpositions, then this theory is “undeterministic” and vise versa. Further analysis of the pure state space leads to the construction of the canonical embedding of the general logic into an orthomodular complete ortho-lattice. After defining the probability of transition between pure states, the pure state space appears to be a generalization of Mielnik's “probability space” of quantum mechanics.     

General Bell-CHSH type and entropic inequalities based on quantum tomograms

Review of Bell-CHSH type and entropic inequalities in composite quantum correlated systems in the probability representation of states is presented. The upper bounds for some new Bell-CHSH type inequalities within the framework of classical probability theory and in quantum tomography are compared. Violation of Bell-CHSH type inequalities are shown explicitly using the method of averaging in tomographic picture of quantum states. Joint tomographic entropies of multiqubit systems are studied. Limitations on inequalities for tomographic entropies are obtained. A negative result of possible connection between the violation of entropic and Bell-CHSH type inequalities in multi-partite states is reported.     

Hidden algebra of the N-body Calogero problem

A certain generalization of the algebra gl(N, ) of first-order differential operators acting on a space of inhomogeneous polynomials in ^N−1 is constructed. The generators of this (non-) Lie algebra depend on permutation operators. It is shown that the Hamiltonian of the N-body Calogero model can be represented as a second-order polynomial in the generators of this algebra. The representation given implies that the Calogero Hamiltonian possesses infinitely-many finite-dimensional invariant subspaces with explicit bases, which are closely related to the finite-dimensional representations of the above algebra. This representation is an alternative to the standard representation of the Bargmann-Fock type in terms of creation and annihilation operators.     

Conditional expectations,conditional distributions,anda posteriori ensembles in generalized probability theory

A general probabilistic framework containing the essential mathematical structure of any statistical physical theory is reviewed and enlarged to enable the generalization of some concepts of classical probability theory. In particular, generalized conditional probabilities of effects and conditional distributions of observables are introduced and their interpretation is discussed in terms of successive measurements. The existence of generalized conditional distributions is proved, and the relation to M. Ozawa'sa posteriori states is investigated. Examples concerning classical as well as quantum probability are discussed.     

Unifying Typical Entanglement and Coin Tossing: on Randomization in Probabilistic Theories

It is well-known that pure quantum states are typically almost maximally entangled, and thus have close to maximally mixed subsystems. We consider whether this is true for probabilistic theories more generally, and not just for quantum theory. We derive a formula for the expected purity of a subsystem in any probabilistic theory for which this quantity is well-defined. It applies to typical entanglement in pure quantum states, coin tossing in classical probability theory, and randomization in post-quantum theories; a simple generalization yields the typical entanglement in (anti)symmetric quantum subspaces. The formula is exact and simple, only containing the number of degrees of freedom and the information capacity of the respective systems. It allows us to generalize statistical physics arguments in a way which depends only on coarse properties of the underlying theory. The proof of the formula generalizes several randomization notions to general probabilistic theories. This includes a generalization of purity, contributing to the recent effort of finding appropriate generalized entropy measures.     

Representation of the Universe as a Dendrogramic Hologram Endowed with Relational Interpretation

A proposal for a fundamental theory is described in which classical and quantum physics as a representation of the universe as a gigantic dendrogram are unified. The latter is the explicate order structure corresponding to the purely number-theoretical implicate order structure given by p-adic numbers. This number field was zero-dimensional, totally disconnected, and disordered. Physical systems (such as electrons, photons) are sub-dendrograms of the universal dendrogram. Measurement process is described as interactions among dendrograms; in particular, quantum measurement problems can be resolved using this process. The theory is realistic, but realism is expressed via the the Leibniz principle of the Identity of Indiscernibles. The classical-quantum interplay is based on the degree of indistinguishability between dendrograms (in which the ergodicity assumption is removed). Depending on this degree, some physical quantities behave more or less in a quantum manner (versus classic manner). Conceptually, our theory is very close to Smolin’s dynamics of difference and Rovelli’s relational quantum mechanics. The presence of classical behavior in nature implies a finiteness of the Universe-dendrogram. (Infinite Universe is considered to be purely quantum.) Reconstruction of events in a four-dimensional space type is based on the holographic principle. Our model reproduces Bell-type correlations in the dendrogramic framework. By adjusting dendrogram complexity, violation of the Bell inequality can be made larger or smaller.

Interaction in scalar field theory with a fundamental length

A certain generalization is considered of the apparatus of quantum field theory in a momentum space of constant curvature. The passage to a configuration representation is accomplished by using a Fourier transformation in terms of plane waves of pseudo-Euclidean five-space. In momentum space de Sitter constructed a model of the interaction between complex and real scalar fields and the corresponding graphical technique.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 4, pp. 58–63, April, 1984.     

Dendrogramic Representation of Data: CHSH Violation vs. Nonergodicity

This paper is devoted to the foundational problems of dendrogramic holographic theory (DH theory). We used the ontic–epistemic (implicate–explicate order) methodology. The epistemic counterpart is based on the representation of data by dendrograms constructed with hierarchic clustering algorithms. The ontic universe is described as a p-adic tree; it is zero-dimensional, totally disconnected, disordered, and bounded (in p-adic ultrametric spaces). Classical–quantum interrelations lose their sharpness; generally, simple dendrograms are “more quantum” than complex ones. We used the CHSH inequality as a measure of quantum-likeness. We demonstrate that it can be violated by classical experimental data represented by dendrograms. The seed of this violation is neither nonlocality nor a rejection of realism, but the nonergodicity of dendrogramic time series. Generally, the violation of ergodicity is one of the basic features of DH theory. The dendrogramic representation leads to the local realistic model that violates the CHSH inequality. We also considered DH theory for Minkowski geometry and monitored the dependence of CHSH violation and nonergodicity on geometry, as well as a Lorentz transformation of data.     

Bell-type inequalities and upper bounds for multiqudit states

Multiqudit systems are studied in the tomographic-probability representation of quantum states. Results of calculations for the Bell-type numbers within the framework of classical probability theory and in quantum tomography are compared. Violations of the Bell-type inequalities are shown explicitly using the method of averaging in the tomographic picture of quantum states.     

Probability Representation of Quantum Observables and Quantum States

We introduce the probability distributions describing quantum observables in conventional quantum mechanics and clarify their relations to the tomographic probability distributions describing quantum states. We derive the evolution equation for quantum observables (Heisenberg equation) in the probability representation and give examples of the spin-1/2 (qubit) states and the spin observables. We present quantum channels for qubits in the probability representation.
