  2. Canonical commutation relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_commutation_relation

    According to the correspondence principle, in certain limits the quantum equations of states must approach Hamilton's equations of motion.The latter state the following relation between the generalized coordinate q (e.g. position) and the generalized momentum p: {˙ = = {,}; ˙ = = {,}.

  3. Quantum calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_calculus

    For 0 < q < 1, the series converges to a function F(x) on an interval (0,A] if |f(x)x α | is bounded on the interval (0, A] for some 0 ≤ α < 1. The q-integral is a Riemann–Stieltjes integral with respect to a step function having infinitely many points of increase at the points q j..The jump at the point q j is q j.

    One particle: N particles: One dimension ^ = ^ + = + ^ = = ^ + (,,) = = + (,,) where the position of particle n is x n. = + = = +. (,) = /.There is a further restriction — the solution must not grow at infinity, so that it has either a finite L 2-norm (if it is a bound state) or a slowly diverging norm (if it is part of a continuum): [1] ‖ ‖ = | |.

  5. Related rates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Related_rates

    In differential calculus, related rates problems involve finding a rate at which a quantity changes by relating that quantity to other quantities whose rates of change are known. The rate of change is usually with respect to time. Because science and engineering often relate quantities to each other, the methods of related rates have broad ...

  6. Uncertainty principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_principle

    where = is the reduced Planck constant.. The quintessentially quantum mechanical uncertainty principle comes in many forms other than position–momentum. The energy–time relationship is widely used to relate quantum state lifetime to measured energy widths but its formal derivation is fraught with confusing issues about the nature of time.

  7. q-derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q-derivative

    In mathematics, in the area of combinatorics and quantum calculus, the q-derivative, or Jackson derivative, is a q-analog of the ordinary derivative, introduced by Frank Hilton Jackson. It is the inverse of Jackson's q-integration. For other forms of q-derivative, see Chung et al. (1994).

  8. Hamiltonian mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamiltonian_mechanics

    q Q, the cotangent space to the point q in the configuration space, sometimes called a cometric. This Hamiltonian consists entirely of the kinetic term . If one considers a Riemannian manifold or a pseudo-Riemannian manifold , the Riemannian metric induces a linear isomorphism between the tangent and cotangent bundles.

  9. Algebraic logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_logic

    An example of calculus of relations arises in erotetics, the theory of questions. In the universe of utterances there are statements S and questions Q. There are two relations π and α from Q to S: q α a holds when a is a direct answer to question q. The other relation, q π p holds when p is a presupposition of question q.
