Learning in Quantum Mechanics
… thesis explores the interactions of learning and quantum mechanics. At its heart, learning consists of extracting information from data. We will consider two types of data; random and deterministic. When data is random, one usually tries to learn an approximation to a desired object, when it is …

Quantum mechanics in complex systems
… Finally, we facilitate the instruction in basic quantum mechanical topics through the use of quantum games; this method of approach allows for the generation of exercises with the intent of conveying the fundamental concepts within a first year quantum mechanics classroom. Furthermore, no to be …

Bohmian Quantum Mechanics with Quantum Trajectories
<p>The quantum trajectory method in the hydrodynamical formulation of Madelung-Bohm-Takabayasi quantum mechanics is an example of showing the cognitive importance of scientific illustrations and metaphors in computational quantum chemistry and electrical engineering. The method involves several …

A Groundwork for Perspectival Quantum Mechanics
… recently been a renewed focus on ‘perspectival’ quantum theories. which simultaneously maintain the existence of single measurement outcomes and the universality of unitary evolution. At the same time, these theories have come under attack with results by Frauchiger and Renner, Baumann and Wolf, …

Measurement and Quasi-States in Quantum-Mechanics
Part of the task of quantum logic is to account for the collapse of the state vector during measurement. A difficulty in this is that it is not obvious how to describe measurement quantum mechanically as the interaction of two or more systems: interacting quantum mechanical systems do not possess …

Supersymmetric quantum mechanics on n-dimensional manifolds
… 1 is a brief introduction to supersymmetric quantum mechanics. In Chapter 2 I show that the supersymmetric path integral can be defined as the continuum limit of a discrete supersymmetric path integral. In Chapter 3 I show that point canonical transformations in the path integral for ordinary …

A space-time approach to quantum mechanics
… to physics. We give applications to classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, ï¬ eld theory, curved manifolds, electromagnetism, and gravity as a gauge theory.

A Study of Modifications to Quantum Mechanics
… the consequences of several modifications to quantum mechanics are examined. These modifications, motivated by string theory, fall into two categories: ones in which the canonical commutation relations between position and momentum are deformed and ones in which the space of states used are …

Issues of identity and individuality in quantum mechanics
… rival proposals for the concept of particle in quantum mechanics. In Chapter 6, I define factorism and distinguish it from haecceitism. I then propose an amendment to recent work by Saunders, Muller and Seevinck, which seeks to show that factorist particles are all at least weakly discernible. I …

On the Necessity of Complex Numbers in Quantum Mechanics
… lattice of elementary propositions of a generic quantum system admits a representation in real, complex or quaternionic Hilbert spaces as established by Solèr’s theorem (1995) closing a long standing problem that can be traced back to von Neumann’s mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics. …

The geometry and representation theory of superconformal quantum mechanics
We study aspects of the quantum mechanics of nonlinear $\sigma$-models with superconformal invariance. The connection between the differential geometry of the target manifold and symmetries of the quantum mechanics is explored, resulting in a classification of spaces admitting $\mathcal{N}=(n,n)$ …
