Characterizing Multiple Solutions to the Time-Energy Canonical Commutation Relation via Quantum Dynamics
arXiv:1005.2870 · doi:10.1016/j.physleta.2009.05.068
Abstract
We address the multiplicity of solutions to the time-energy canonical commutation relation for a given Hamiltonian. Specifically, we consider a particle spatially confined in a potential free interval, where it is known that two distinct self-adjoint and compact time operators conjugate to the system Hamiltonian exist. The dynamics of the eigenvectors of these operators indicate that different time operators posses distinguishing properties that can unambiguously associate them to specific aspects of the quantum time problem.
