Symmetry examples in open quantum dynamics
Thomas F. Jordan, San Ha Seo
Dependent symmetries, symmetries that depend on the situation of the subsystem in a larger closed system, are explored by looking at simple examples. This is a new kind of symmetry…
Symmetries in open quantum dynamics
Thomas F. Jordan
Simple examples are used to introduce and examine symmetries of open quantum dynamics that can be described by unitary operators. For the Hamiltonian dynamics of an entire closed s…
What is tested when experiments test that quantum dynamics is linear
Thomas F. Jordan
Experiments that look for nonlinear quantum dynamics test the fundamental premise of physics that one of two separate systems can influence the physical behavior of the other only…
Change of the plane of oscillation of a Foucault pendulum from simple pictures
Thomas F. Jordan, J. Maps
The change of the plane of oscillation of a Foucault pendulum is calculated without using equations of motion, the Gauss-Bonnet theorem, parallel transport, or assumptions that are…
Repeatable procedures and maps in open quantum dynamics
Thomas F. Jordan, Anil Shaji
Examples of repeatable procedures and maps are found in the open quantum dynamics of one qubit that interacts with another qubit. They show that a mathematical map that is repeatab…
Bracket relations for relativity groups
Thomas F. Jordan
Poisson bracket relations for generators of canonical transformations are derived directly from the Galilei and Poincaré groups of changes of space-time coordinates. The method is…
