Fixed Points in Topological *-Algebras of Unbounded Operators
2001
We discuss some results concerning fixed point equations in the setting of topological *-algebras of unbounded operators. In particular, an existence result is obtained for what we have called {\em weak $\tau$ strict contractions}, and some continuity properties of these maps are discussed. We also discuss possible applications of our procedure to quantum mechanical systems.
Multi-Resolution Analysis and Fractional Quantum Hall Effect: an Equivalence Result
2001
In this paper we prove that any multi-resolution analysis of $\Lc^2(\R)$ produces, for some values of the filling factor, a single-electron wave function of the lowest Landau level (LLL) which, together with its (magnetic) translated, gives rise to an orthonormal set in the LLL. We also give the inverse construction. Moreover, we extend this procedure to the higher Landau levels and we discuss the analogies and the differences between this procedure and the one previously proposed by J.-P. Antoine and the author.
FOURIER TRANSFORMS, FRACTIONAL DERIVATIVES, AND A LITTLE BIT OF QUANTUM MECHANICS
2020
We discuss some of the mathematical properties of the fractional derivative defined by means of Fourier transforms. We first consider its action on the set of test functions $\Sc(\mathbb R)$, and then we extend it to its dual set, $\Sc'(\mathbb R)$, the set of tempered distributions, provided they satisfy some mild conditions. We discuss some examples, and we show how our definition can be used in a quantum mechanical context.
Non linear pseudo-bosons versus hidden Hermiticity
2011
The increasingly popular concept of a hidden Hermiticity of operators (i.e., of their Hermiticity with respect to an {\it ad hoc} inner product in Hilbert space) is compared with the recently introduced notion of {\em non-linear pseudo-bosons}. The formal equivalence between these two notions is deduced under very general assumptions. Examples of their applicability in quantum mechanics are discussed.
Generalized Riesz systems and orthonormal sequences in Krein spaces
2018
We analyze special classes of bi-orthogonal sets of vectors in Hilbert and in Krein spaces, and their relations with generalized Riesz systems. In this way, the notion of the first/second type sequences is introduced and studied. We also discuss their relevance in some concrete quantum mechanical system driven by manifestly non self-adjoint Hamiltonians.
