We apply the method of State-dependent Diagonalization to study the eigenstates of the relativistic quantum harmonic oscillator in the low relativistic limit. The relativistic corrections of the energy eigenvalues of the quantum harmonic oscillator are evaluated for different values of the relativistic parameter α ≡ ħω0 / m0c2. Unlike the conventional exact diagonalization, this new method is shown to be very efficient for evaluating the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. We have also found that for non-zero α the eigenfunctions of the system become more localized in space and that the ground state of the SHO (i.e., the α = 0 case) turns into a squeezed state. Furthermore, since our system is a special case of the quantum harmonic oscillator with a velocity-dependent anharmonic potential, this new approach should be very useful for investigating the cases with more complicated velocity-dependent anharmonic potentials.

The symmetry algebra of the two-dimensional anisotropic quantum harmonic oscillator with rational ratio of frequencies is identified as a deformation of the u(2) algebra. The finite dimensional representation modules of this algebra are studied and the energy eigenvalues are determined using algebraic methods of general applicability to quantum superintegrable systems. For labelling the degenerate states an "angular momentum" operator is introduced, the eigenvalues of which are roots of appropriate generalized Hermite polynomials. The cases with frequency ratios 1:n correspond to generalized parafermionic oscillators, while in the special case with frequency ratio 2:1 the resulting algebra corresponds to the finite W algebra [Formula: see text].

In this paper the small relativistic correction for the energy eigenvalues of the two- and three-dimensional anisotropic quantum harmonic oscillator are calculated, using as eigenstates [Formula: see text], for different values of the relativistic parameters βi ≡ ħwi / m0c2 with i = 1, 2 and 3.

The symmetry algebra of the two-dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator with rational ratio of frequencies is identified as a non-linear extension of the u(2) algebra. The finite dimensional representation modules of this algebra are studied and the energy eigenvalues are de- termined using algebraic methods of general applicability to quantum superintegrable systems.

This study was designed to obtain the energy eigenvalues and the corresponding Eigenfunctions of the Quantum Harmonic oscillator through an alternative approach. Starting with an appropriate family of solutions to a relevant linear di erential equation, we recover the Schr¨odinger Equation together with its eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Quantum Harmonic Oscillator via the use of Gram Schmidt orthogonalization process in the usual Hilbert space. Significantly, it was found that there exists two separate sequences arising from the Gram Schmidt Orthogonalization process; one in respect of the even eigenfunctions and the other in respect of the odd eigenfunctions.

Abstract In this article, the Hamiltonian for the conformable harmonic oscillator used in the previous study [Chung WS, Zare S, Hassanabadi H, Maghsoodi E. The effect of fractional calculus on the formation of quantum-mechanical operators. Math Method Appl Sci. 2020;43(11):6950–67.] is written in terms of fractional operators that we called α \alpha -creation and α \alpha -annihilation operators. It is found that these operators have the following influence on the energy states. For a given order α \alpha , the α \alpha -creation operator promotes the state while the α \alpha -annihilation operator demotes the state. The system is then quantized using these creation and annihilation operators and the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are obtained. The eigenfunctions are expressed in terms of the conformable Hermite functions. The results for the traditional quantum harmonic oscillator are found to be recovered by setting α = 1 \alpha =1 .

Abstract We construct classical theories for scalar fields in arbitrary Carroll spacetimes that are invariant under Carrollian diffeomorphisms and Weyl transformations. When the local symmetries are gauge fixed these theories become Carrollian conformal field theories. We show that generically there are at least two types of such theories: one in which only time derivatives of the fields appear and the other in which both space and time derivatives appear. A classification of such scalar field theories in three (and higher) dimensions up to two derivative order is provided. We show that only a special case of our theories arises in the ultra-relativistic limit of a covariant parent theory.
