Unitarity

The appropriate quantum mechanical operator fomi of the phase has been the subject of numerous efforts. At present, one can only speak of the best approximate operator, and this also is the subject of debate. A personal historical account by Nieto of various operator definitions for the phase (and of its probability distribution) is in [27] and in companion articles, for example, [130-132] and others, that have appeared in Volume 48 of Physica Scripta T (1993), which is devoted to this subject. (For an introduction to the unitarity requirements placed on a phase operator, one can refer to [133]). In 1927, Dirac proposed a quantum mechanical operator tf), defined in terms of the creation and destruction operators [134], but London [135] showed that this is not Hermitean. (A further source is [136].) Another candidate, e is not unitary.

It follows from the definition of the impact operator and the S-matrices unitarity that f(0) obeys not only relation (4.65) but also Eq. (4.66), instead of Eq. (5.14) of EFA. Consequently we obtain an equilibrium (not equiprobable) distribution of populations. The property (5.9) as well as (5.16) are not confirmed. They are peculiar only to EFA and cannot...

Most of the graphs we deal with are trees- that is, they do not have any self tracing loops. Choose a vertex which will be the root . In the example we consider here we shall take vertex 5 as the root (see figure l.(c)). A wave which propagates from the root along a certain branch is reflected, and this reflection can be expressed by a reflection from the vertex which is next to the root. Once we know the reflection coefficient, which because of unitarity is a complex number with unit modulus, we can construct the SB(k) matrix. In the present cases, when the valency of the root is 3, we get... 

The next step forward has yet to be taken The clash between relativity and quantum mechanics - the choice between causality and unitarity - awaits resolution. However, on a less grand scale, the tension between fundamentally different points of view is already apparent in the discord between quantum and classical mechanics. Unlike special relativity, where v/c —> 0 smoothly transitions between Einstein and... 

Newton, the limit h —> 0 is singular. The symmetries underlying quantum and classical dynamics - unitarity and symplecticity, respectively - are fundamentally incompatible with the opposing theory s notion of a physical state quantum-mechanically, a positive semi-definite density matrix classically, a positive phase-space distribution function. 

We now consider a simple model of position measurement to provide a measure of concreteness. In this model, we will assume that there are no environmental channels aside from those associated with the measurement. Suppose we have a single quantum degree of freedom, position in this case, under a weak, ideal continuous measurement (C.M. Caves et.al., 1987). Here ideal refers to no loss of information during the measurement, i.e., a fine-grained evolution with no loss of unitarity. Then, we have two coupled equations, one for the measurement record y(t),... 

The matrix T is clearly stochastic, as YJj=i Tij = 1 due to the unitarity of SG the set of transition matrices related to a unitary matrix as defined in (6) is a subset of the set of all stochastic transition matrices, referred to as the set of unitary-stochastic matrices. The topology of the set in the space of all stochastic matrices is in fact quite complicated, see Pakonski et.al. (2001). In what follows, we will only use that T... 

Let us briefly mention some formal aspects of the above-introduced formalism, which have been discussed in detail by Blaizot and Marshalek [218]. First, it is noted that the both the Schwinger and the Holstein-Primakoff representations are not unitary transformations in the usual sense. Nevertheless, a transformation may be defined in terms of a formal mapping operator acting in the fermionic-bosonic product Hilbert space. Furthermore, the interrelation of the Schwinger representation and the Holstein-Primakoff representation has been investigated in the context of quantization of time-dependent self-consistent fields. It has been shown that the representations are related to each other by a nonunitary transformation. This lack of unitarity is a consequence of the nonexistence of a unitary polar decomposition of the creation and annihilation operators a and at [221] and the resulting difficulties in the definition of a proper phase operator in quantum optics [222]. 

From the above expressions presented in this section, we can already conclude several interesting properties of the transformation A. First, Eqs. (27) and (28) show that it is nonunitary transformation, A A . Acmally, one can show that this transformation satisfies a more general symmetric property called star unitarity (see Refs. 5, 10, 13, and 14) ...

The two-loop slope was considered in the early pioneer works [17, 18], and for the first time the correct result was obtained numerically in [19]. This last work triggered a flurry of theoretical activity [20, 21, 22, 23], followed by the first completely analytical calculation in [24]. The same analytical result for the slope of the Dirac form factor was derived in [25] from the total e+e cross section and the unitarity condition.

Figure 3.15 (Heeger 1969, p. 306) shows the added resistivity due to iron-group impurities in gold. The low-temperature values, for which scattering cross-sections of order a2 occur (the unitarity limit ), include Kondo scattering. At room temperature, kBT is too great for most of the electrons near E to resonate...
