Since the Wigner function (WF) is related to a Lindard-constant type linear dielectric function derived in the symmetric gauge,7 it is expected to show de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations. Starting with the symmetric eigenfunctions, we derived the pure-state WF in a magnetic field, whose plots in phase space and in term of B-1 for increasing n are consistent with the dHvA effect. Furthermore the asymptotic expansion of WF at large n show periodic oscillations with a period related to the Fermi energy. The phase space plots of WF also show that dHvA and similar oscillations could be a consequence of Nature's strategy for increasing the effective spatial range without violating the uncertainty principle. Properties of the symmetric eigenfunctions were derived. The dynamics of WF can be obtained from the solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (SE). A new method to solve the SE in a magnetic field in the interaction picture based on expansion in term of symmetric eigenfunctions has been developed. The matrix element for a Gaussian potential were derived explicitly, plotted against B-1, and showed oscillations. The total WF was shown to be a linear combination of the diagonal pure-state WF's by using the orthogonality for symmetric eigenfunctions. The no-special-point property for WF was confirmed, which is important for the construction of a numerical algorithm to solve the SE in a magnetic field.

This work shows that in the frame of the stochastic generalization of the quantum hydrodynamic analogy (QHA) the uncertainty principle is fully compatible with the postulate of finite transmission speed of light and information. The theory shows that the measurement process performed in the large scale classical limit in presence of background noise, cannot have a duration smaller than the time need to the light to travel the distance up to which the quantum non-local interaction extend itself. The product of the minimum measuring time multiplied by the variance of energy fluctuation due to presence of stochastic noise shows to lead to the minimum uncertainty principle. The paper also shows that the uncertainty relations can be also derived if applied to the indetermination of position and momentum of a particle of mass m in a quantum fluctuating environment.

The romanticism of management for numbers, metrics and deterministic models driven by mathematics, is not new. It still exists. This is exactly the problem which classical physicists had in the late 19th century until Werner Heisenberg brought the uncertainty principle and opened the doors of quantum physics that challenged the deterministic view of the physical world mostly driven by the Newtonian view. In this paper, we propose an uncertainty principle of management and then list a set of factors which capture this uncertainty quite well and arrive at a new view of scientific management thought. The new view which we call as the Quantum view of Management (QVM) will be based on the major tenets from the ancient philosophical traditions viz., Jainism, Taoism, Advaita Vedanta, Buddhism, Greek philosophers (like Hereclitus) etc.

The subject of Chapter 8 is the fundamental principles of quantum theory, the abstract extension of quantum mechanics. Two of the entities explored are kets and operators, with kets being representations of quantum states as well as a source of wave functions. The quantum box and quantum spin kets are specified, as are the quantum numbers that identify them. Operators are introduced and defined in part as the symbolic representations of observable quantities such as position, momentum and quantum spin. Eigenvalues and eigenkets are defined and discussed, with the former identified as the possible outcomes of a measurement. Bras, the counterpart to kets, are introduced as the means of forming probability amplitudes from kets. Products of operators are examined, as is their role underpinning Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle. A variety of symbol manipulations are presented. How measurements are believed to collapse linear superpositions to one term of the sum is explored.
