Scalar Product for a Version of Minisuperspace Model with Grassmann Variables
arXiv:2312.06618 · doi:10.3390/universe9120508
Abstract
Grassmann variables are used to formally transform a system with constraints into an unconstrained system. As a result, the Schrödinger equation arises instead of the Wheeler-DeWitt one. The Schrödinger equation describes a system's evolution, but a definition of the scalar product is needed to calculate the mean values of the operators. We suggest an explicit formula for the scalar product related to the Klein-Gordon scalar product. The calculation of the mean values is compared with an etalon method in which a redundant degree of freedom is excluded. Nevertheless, we note that a complete correspondence with the etalon picture is not found. Apparently, the picture with Grassmann variables requires a further understanding of the underlying Hilbert space.
