Canonical Transformations in Quantum Mechanics
by Arlen Anderson
Publisher: arXiv 1993
Number of pages: 43
Description:
Quantum canonical transformations are defined algebraically outside of a Hilbert space context. This generalizes the quantum canonical transformations of Weyl and Dirac to include non-unitary transformations. The importance of non-unitary transformations for constructing solutions of the Schroedinger equation is discussed.
