Wigner-Weyl-Moyal Formalism on Algebraic Structures | Frank Antonsen
; | Date: |
28 Aug 1996 | Journal: | Int.J.Theor.Phys. 37 (1998) 697-758 | Subject: | quant-ph | Affiliation: | Niels Bohr Institute | Abstract: | We first introduce the Wigner-Weyl-Moyal formalism for a theory whose phase-space is an arbitrary Lie algebra. We also generalize to quantum Lie algebras and to supersymmetric theories. It turns out that the non-commutativity leads to a deformation of the classical phase-space: instead of being a vector space it becomes a manifold, the topology of which is given by the commutator relations. It is shown in fact that the classical phase-space, for a semi-simple Lie algebra, becomes a homogenous symplectic manifold. The symplectic product is also deformed. We finally make some comments on how to generalize to $C^*$-algebras and other operator algebras too. | Source: | arXiv, quant-ph/9608042 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
