“Quantization of waves: the stretched string” discusses waves in one dimension, in order to display the quantization procedure without the complication of three dimensions and of two polarization possibilities. Quantization goes via classical Lagrangian mechanics. The waves travel in both directions along the string, and we face up to disentangling these. The quantization procedure yields raising and lowering operators, their commutation rules, and their matrix elements.

Lowering Operators

A realization of the raising and lowering operators for the Morse potential is presented. We show that these operators satisfy the commutation relations for the SU(2) group. Closed analytical expressions are derived for the matrix elements of different functions such as 1/y and d/dy. The harmonic limit of the SU(2) operators is also studied. The transition probability between two eigenstates produced by a harmonic perturbation as a function of the operators [Formula: see text]±,0 is discussed. The average values of some observables in the coherent states |α > for the Morse potential are also calculated. PACS Nos.: 02.30+b, 03.65Fd, 42.50Ar, and 33.10Cs

Lowering Operators

The natural extension to the SU(5) Georgi-Glashow grand unification model is to enlarge the gauge symmetry group. In this work, the SU(7) symmetry group is examined. The Cartan subalgebra is determined along with their commutation relations. The associated roots and weights of the SU(7) algebra are derived and discussed. The raising and lowering operators are explicitly constructed and presented. Higher dimensional representations are developed by graphical as well as tensorial methods. Applications of the SU(7) Lie group to supersymmetric grand unification as well as applications are discussed.

We find raising and lowering operators distinguishing the degenerate states for the Hamiltonian [Formula: see text] at x = ± 1 for spin 1 that was given by Happer et al.1,2 to interpret the curious degeneracies of the Zeeman effect for condensed vapor of 87 Rb . The operators obey Yangian commutation relations. We show that the curious degeneracies seem to verify the Yangian algebraic structure for quantum tensor space and are consistent with the representation theory of Y(sl(2)).
