QUANTUM MECHANICS* Hitoshi Kitada t December 28, 2003

Preface I consider in this book a formulation of Quantum Mechanics, which is often abbreviated as QM. Usually QM is formulated based on the notion of time and space, both of which are thought a priori given quantities or notions. However,when we try to define the notion of velocity or momentum, we encounter a difficulty as we will see in chapter 1. The problem is that if the notion of time is given a priori, the velocity is definitely determined when given a position, which contradicts the uncertainty principle of Heisenberg. We then set the basis of QM on the notion of position and momentum operators as in chapter 2. Time of a local system then is defined approximately as a ratio lxl/lvlbetween the space coordinate x and the velocity v, where !xi,etc. denotes the absolute value or length of a vector x. In this formulation of QM, we can keep the uncertainty principle, and time is a quantity that does not have precise values unlike the usually supposed notion of time has. The feature of local time is that it is a time proper to each local system, which is defined as a finite set of quantum mechanical particles. We now have an infinite number of local times that are unique and proper to each local system. Based on the notion of local time, the motion inside a local system is described by the usual Schrodinger equation. We investigate such motion in a given local system in part II. This is a usual quantum mechanics. After some excursion of the investigation of local motion, we consider in part III the relative relation or motion between plural local systems. We regard each local system's center of mass as a classical particle. Then as the relative coordinate inside a local system is independent of its center of mass, we can set an arbitrary rule on the relation among those centers of mass of local systems. We adopt the principles of general relativity as the rules that govern the relations of plural local systems. By the reason that the center of mass and the inner coordinate are independent, we can combine quantum mechanics and general relativity consistently. We give an approximate Hamiltonian that explains partially the usual relativistic quantum mechanical phenomena in chapter 9. In the final part IV, we consider some contradictory aspect of mathematics in chapter 10. Although this does not give directly that mathematics is inconsistent, this will give an introduction to the next chapter 11, where starting with the contradictory nature of the semantics of set theory in the sense that if we consider all sentences of set theory, they are contradictory, we regard that the Universe that is described by ourselves is of contradictory nature, and can be described as a superposition of all possible, infinite number of waves. As this is the state of the Universe, the Universe is described as a stationary state describing a superposition of all waves. We then give a formulation of iii

IV

the Universe and local systems inside it, in the form of a theory described by Axiom 1 to Axiom 5 in cha}ter 11. In the final chapter 12, we will prove that there is at least one Universe wave Junction¢ in which all local systems have local motions and thus local times. This concludes our formulation of Quantum Mechanics.

Notation We here explain some notations which will be used in the text. Ck(mn) (k = 0, 1, 2, · · · , oo) is a space of k times continuously differentiable functions / (x) of x E Rm. R;'1)is a subspace of Ck(mn) whose element f E Ck(R;'I) has compact support in R;'I. In particular, C8°(Rm)is a space of infinitely differentiable functions on Rm with compact support. We also use the notation Cgo(G)for a region Gin R;'I to denote the space of functions with continuous derivatives up to order k with the support contained in G. S = S(mn) denotes a space of rapidly decreasing functions / on R;'I. Namely / E S means that / is an infinitely differentiable function satisfying

It is a space

11/11 = (/, 1)112 < oo,

where the inner product is given by

(f,g)

(4)

Concretely it is obtained by a completion of Sor of C8°(Rm) with respect to the norm (3). Along with this Hilbert space we use weighted £ 2 space: L~ = L~(R;'I) (s E R1), which is a completion of S with respect to the norm

where PJ= Z::!=1 PJk and ½3{x) (x E R3 ) is a real-valued pair potential which describes the interaction between the particles i and j. Since this interaction depends only on the relative position xi - x 3 E R3 of the particles, we can remove the center of mass from the Hamiltonian. Namdy, denoting the old variables xi by Xi with some abuse of notation, we introduce new variables xi as follows. We first define the center of mass of the N-particle system by m1X1 + · · · + mNXN Xe= --------, m1+···+mN

(2.3)

and then define Xi as Jacobi coordinates: m1X1 + · · · + miXi -------, m1 +···+mi

He is the well-knc,wnLaplacian, and what we are concerned with is the relative motion of the N-particl~. Thus we have only to consider Hin the Hilbert space 1l = L2(R3n). We rewrite this H as H: n

where O < 0 < s - 1/2. Thus by applying (5.25) to the definition (5.33) of h(>,), we see that the limit as E .J,.0 exists and is bounded by

for s > 1/2 ands -1/2 > 0 > 0, where Cs8µ > 0 is bounded whenµ moves in a compact subset of (0, oo ). Thus the second term on the RHS of (5.36) is bounded by

for s > 1/2. Combining this with (5.37) and (5.35), we obtain the existence of the boundary value /lo(µ+ i0)f = lime.J.O Ro(µ+ iE)f in L: 8 (Rm) and the estimate

llllo(µ + i0)IIL2-+£2 -• ::; C

.

locally uniformly in µ > 0, where s > 1/2. Similarly, the same estimate holds also for /lo(µ - i0). Reexamining the arguments above, we also see that !lo(µ± i0) is continuous with respect toµ> 0 in operator norm from L~(Rm) into L: 8 (Rm) for s > 1/2. Summarizing, we have proved:

Theorem 5.1 The resolution {E0 (>.)} of the identity for Ho is expressed for f,g E L~(Rm) (s > 1/2) and A > 0 as:

d~(Eo(-A)f,g)

=

=

2~/(Ilo(>.+iO)-/lo(.A-iO))f,g) (F(>,)f,F(>.)g)L2(sm-l)·

(5.38)

Here {Jlo(>,± iO)h>o and {F(-A)h>o are continuous families of bounded operators from L~(~) (s > 1/2) into L: 8 (Rm) and L 2 (sm- 1 ), respectively, defined by for f E L~(Rm)

Jlo(>,± i0)f = lim Jlo(>,± iE)f,

(5.39)

e.l,O

F(>.)f(w)

= (2>.)(m-2)! 4 (.rf)(~w).

(5.40)

In particular, Jlo(>,± i0) and F(>.) are Holder continuous of order 0 (0 < 0 < s -1/2) locally uniformly with respect to>, > 0, in the uniform operator topologyof B(L~(~), L: 8 (~)) and B(L~(Rm),L 2 (sm- 1 )), respectively.

5.2

Spatial asymptotics

Since H 0 is a selfadjoint operator in 1l

of the free resolvent = L 2 (Rm), H 0 generates

Uo(t) = exp(-itHo) = e-itHo (t E R 1 )

a unitary group

(5.41)

If we move to the :momentum space ii.=£ 2 (.Rf) by Fourier transformation, we have for g ES= :FS by (5.5)

U0 (t)g({) := (.rUo(t):F-1g)({) = e-itlEl2 l 2g({).

(5.43)

Since eitHof (f E 'H) is continuous in 1l with respect tot E R 1 by the remark after (5.43), the integral can be understood as a Riemann integral. Using the secor.d line of (5.44), we can rewrite (5.56) for f ES:

where J = :Ff. In what follows, assumingµ> 0, we apply stationary phase method to this integral and derive~ asymptotic expansion as r = Jxl--+oo. To do so, we assume f E C8°(R'['- {0}) with supp f C {{I (0 (m + 1)/2, we have an expansion formula for J1 (rw). In particular, as the first approximation we get for large r > 1

Propai?;ation estimates for the free evolution

In this section we consider some estimates of e-itHowhich are stronger version of Theorem 3.2 in the free Hamiltonian case. For this purpose we introduce the notion of pseudodifferential operator (we call this a 'ljJdoin the following). P is called a '1/Jdowith symbol p(x, e),if it is written for f ES

f

where is the variable defined by (5.47). We call p(x, e) the symbol of the 'ljJdoP and write p(x, e) = u(P)(x, e). For (5.76) to be well-defined as an oscillatory integral, we need to assume some smoothness conditions on the symbol p(x, e) of P. E.g. let us assume that p(x, e) is C00 with respect to (x, e) and satisfies the estimates

1a~O:p(x,e)I< oo

sup

(5.77)

for all multi-indices a: and /3. Let as before x E S(R"') such that x(O) = 1, and set Xe(e) = x(1:e),and define (5.76) by

Pf(x)

(5.78)

Then using the relation 2 )e-ive, (1 + D;)e-iy{ = (1 + 1{1

we integrate by parts inside the integral (5.78):

Thus Pf is well-defined for f E S as an oscillatory integral independently of the choice of the damping factor Xe· We write Pf as Pf= p(X, Dx)f to indicate the symbol p(x, {) used in the definition (5.76). As other forms of the definition of 'ljJdo,we can adopt

Proof is easily done by using Fourier transformation, and is left to the reader. It is easy to see that for P

P*f(x) =Os-I

the adjoint operator P* is given by

I ei(x-y)ep(y,e, x)f(y)dyd[

Thus if we consider the operator P*P, we have the integral operator

1(1 0): If/ is localized in a region G of R"",physically the region G should move to the region G +tv = {x +tvl x E G} after time t. Thus the localization factor Pa on the LHS should effect so that IIPacitHoPaf II decays as t -+ oo. Theorem 5.5 tells that the rate of this decay is t-s. In the case of ,:5.102)of Theorem 5.6, P+ on the RHS of PacitHoP+ restricts the initial function to the phase space region where cos(x, v) ~ 0 + p by (5.97). Then the state e-itHoP+f propagates toward the direction v ':/:0 which is almost parallel to x. Thus the location of the state should be separated from 0 when t -+ oo. Theorem 5.6 gives the rate of this separation. In the case of Theorem 5.7, similarly to (5.102) of Theorem 5.6, the state citHop+f propagates toward the region in the phase space where x and v are almost parallel to each other. Since P_ on the LHS restricts the state to the region where x and v are anti-parallel, the state P_e-itHop+f should decay. Theorem 5.7 gives the rate of this decay. We now prove these theorems. Proof of Theorem ~·.5: It suffices to prove (5.101) for even integers s ~ 0, because we have only to interpolate them to get the desired estimates. The case s = 0 is obvious. Let s > 0 be an even iILteger.We recall (5.49):

i 0 and Ca > 0 independent of x E ~. H is a generalization of a two-body Hamiltonian that describes the two-body system in R3 to a general dimension m = 1, 2, · · ·. Vs and VL are called short- and long-range potentials respectively. The assumption (6.2) can be weakened to allow some local singularities with respect to x E Rm. E.g. (6.4} is known sufficient ([8]) for some results we prove below. (6.4} includes the Coulomb singularities of order 1/lxl at x = 0, thus together with the long-range part VL, V covers the Coulomb type long-range potentials. As the inclusion of singularities is of rather technical nature, we restrict the description below to the potentials satisfying (6.2} and (6.3). As is well-known (see, e.g. [43], Chapter 4.), the perturbed Hamiltonian (6.1) has eigenvalues in general, unlike the unperturbed Hamiltonian H0 • Thus we have first to specify eigenvalues and eigenspace 1lp(H) of H. Then restricting the total Hilbert space 1l to the continuous spectral subspace 1lc(H) = 1lp(H)1.,we will consider the properties of scattering states f E 1lc(H). Before going to the investigation of eigenvaluesof H, we see that H defines a selfadjoint operator in 1l. In the case of the unperturbed Hamiltonian H0 , the selfadjointness was 61

CHAPTER 6. TWO-BODY HAMILTONIAN

62

trivial by virtue of the expression {5.5). But in the case of the perturbed Hamiltonian, getting such an expression is a problem that will be solved later. We recall the definition of the adjoint open.tor H* of H. Let V(H*) be defined as the set of all g E 1i such that there exists an f E 1i satisfying (g, Hu)

= (f, u)

for all u E V(H).

(6.5)

Since V(V) = 1i, tile domain V(H) of the Hamiltonian H = H 0 +Vis equal to V(H 0 ) = H 2 (Rm), which is dense in 1i. Thus the relation (6.5) determines f uniquely. Then we define H*g = f for g E V(H*). In general, His called symmetric if H* is an extension of H (in notation JI CH*) and selfadjoint when H* = H. A symmetric operator His called essentially selfadjoint if the closure H** of H is selfadjoint. In our caseof Ho and V, it is clear that Ho and V are selfadjoint with V(H 0) = H 2 (Rm) = V(H 0 ) by (5.5), and V(V*) = 1i = V(V) by our assumptions (6.2) and (6.3). Thus V(H*) = V(H 0)nV(V*) = H 2 (Rm) = V(H); hence H is selfadjoint. Turning to the eigenvalues of H, we define i[H, A] as a form sum (i[H, A]f, g)

= i(Af,

Hg) - i(H f, Ag)

{6.6)

for f, g ES, where as before A= (x · D., + D., · x)/2 = x · D., + m/(2i) = D., · x - m/(2i) is a selfadjoint operator with V(A) = Ht(~), the weighted Sobolev space, as defined in the section of Notation at the beginning. We first prove the non-existence of positive eigenvalues of H. To do so we set P(>.) = EH(>.) - EH(>. - 0) for ).. > 0. (See the section of Notation.) Then letting B = (>. Ejµ, >. + Ejµ) with f. > 0 sufficiently small and µ > 1 sufficiently large, and using the equalities as form mms i[Ho, A] = 2Ho and i[VL, A] = -x · v'., VL(x), we have for any u E 1i (EH(B)i[H, A]EH(B)u, u)

(6.7)

= i(ABH(B)u,

H EH(B)u) - i(H EH(B)u, AEH(B)u)

In (6.7), we replace u by un = I, where 0 is the constant in (6.2). By Theorem 5.5 and (6.2), we have (6.18) Thus the integral h (6.17) converges for such a g and the proof is complete. D By the definition (6.16) of W±, we easily see that W± are isometric operators from 1-l into 1-land the relation holds: (6.19)

Taking the Laplace transforms of both sides of (6.19), we thus have (6.22) It follows from this that -21 .(R(>..+ iE) - R(>..- ie))W±f 1ri

= W±-21 .(R.o(>.. + ie)- R.o(>.. - ie)). 1ri

(6.23)

Let EH(a) = ½(EH(a- 0) + EH(a)), etc. Then it is not difficult to see (see [50] p. 325 or [21] p.359) by using (5.10)-(5.12) that for -oo < a < b < oo s-lim

From these and (6.23), we now have (6.26) for any Borel set BC (-00,00), where EH(B) and E 0 (B) are spectral measures for H and H0 respectively. From (6.26), we have for any continuous function F(>..), (6.27) This relation is called the intertwining property of the wave operators W±. We define the absolutely continuous spectral subspace 1lac(H) of a selfadjoint operator H as the space of functions f E 1l such that

EH(B)f

if

IBI= 0,

IBIis the

Lebesgue measure of a Borel set B ofR 1lv(H)l. is equivalent to the condition where

We remark that f E 1lc(H)

(EH(>..)J,J) is continuous with respect to >..E R 1 .

(6.29)

In fact, the eigenspace of H for an eigenvalue >..E R 1 is equal to P(>..)1l:= (EH(>..)EH(>..- 0) )1l, where EH(>..- 0) = s- limµt-XEH(µ). Thus 1lp(H) is spanned by P(>..)1l with >..E R 1 , and the orthogonal complement 1lp(H)1. consists of those elements f that satisfy (6.29). In the case of the free Hamiltonian H0 , it follows from Theorem 5.1 and 1lv(Ho) = {O}that

1lac(Ho)= 1lc(Ho) = 1l.

(6.30)

CHAPTER 6. TWO-BODY HAMILTONIAN

66

Combining this wi1;hthe intertwining property (6.26), we see that for range R(W±) = Wi:1i,

f = W±g in the (6.31)

for a Borel set B with the Lebesgue measure IBI= 0. Namely W±J (f E 1i) belongs to the absolutely continuous spectral subspace 1iac(H)(c 1ic(H)) of H. Thus we have shown (6.32) For the perturbed Hamiltonian H, 1ip(H) =I {O} in general as seen above, thus (6.30) does not necessarily hold. Nevertheless by Theorem 3.2, it is expected that (6.33) holds. If this equality holds, 1ic(H) is unitarily equivalent to 1ic(H0 ) = 1i = L2 (Irn) by the unitary operators

W:J,: 1i = 1ic(Ho) = 1iac(Ho)-+ 1ic(H) = 1iac(H),

(6.34)

which intertwine Hand H 0 • The relation (6.33) is called the asymptotic completeness of the wave operators W±. Assuming the asymptotic completeness holds, we define unitary operators (6.35) where :Fis Fourier transformation as before. Then by the intertwining property (6.27), we have for f E 1ic(H) n V(H)

:F±HJ({) = :FW±Hf({)

= :FHoW±f({) = l~2 :F±J({).

(6.36)

Thus :F±are consid,~redas generalizations of Fourier transformation that diagonalize Hon 2 /2):Ff({) 1ic(H) as the usual Fourier transformation :F diagonalizes H0 : :FH0 f({) = (1{1 (f E 1ic(Ho) n V(ffo) = V(Ho)). Thus the asymptotic completeness gives a spectral representation of tbe perturbed Hamiltonian H = Ho + V.

In this section, we will be devoted in the proof of the asymptotic completeness (6.33). To do so, since by definition

we have only to show that (6.38)

6.3. ASYMPTOTIC COMPLETENESS

The definition of wave operators W± in {6.16) is known working only for short-range potentials satisfying {6.2) or {6.4). To extend {6.38) to include the long-range potentials satisfying (6.3), it is necessary to modify the definition {6.16). We here choose a modification of the form W f ±

J is the Fourier transform of f E S (Rm), c;,. = (271" )-m/ 2 , and the phase function cp(x,~) will be constructed as a solution of an eikonal equation Here

in the forward and backward regions, in which x E Rm and ~ E ~ are almost parallel and anti-parallel to each other, respectively. With cp(x,~) being well-defined, we argue as follows: We appeal to the Cauchy criterion of convergence in proving the existence of W± and its asymptotic completeness: 'R(W±) = 1ic(H), with using Theorem 3.2. For instance, the argument for the asymptotic completeness is as follows: We consider the case t -+ +oo only. The other case is treated similarly. Noting that the vectors of the form EH(B)g with g E 1ic(H) and B being a Borel subset of the interval {0,oo) are dense in 1ic(H), we evaluate the difference for g E 1ic(H) with g = EH(B)g (B C {d2/2, b), 0 < d, 0 0 so small that C0 p°0 < 1/2 we obtain the following

whose RHS conveqes in operator norm by (6.143). This implies that the range 'R,(J) equals 1£ and J* is one-to-one. Furthermore, {6.142) implies that the symbol r(x, 17,y) = 1 - J( x, 17,y) of the ¢do I - J J* is small so that the series of symbols 00

Vecp(e,Y,'T/)=

CHAPTER 6. TWO-BODY HAMILTONIAN

Since J* is bounded as we have seen, and Q2 = q2(X, Dz, X') is bounded on 1-lby q2 E So,o and Theorem 5.4, 1- 1 = Q2 J* is also a bounded operator on 1-l. We are now prEpared to prove the existence and asymptotic completeness of the wave operators {6.39). Before going to the proof, we remark that the definition {6.39)should be understood as follows with taking into account the dependence of the identification operator J = Jd on d > 0. Namely for f E :,:- 1cr(R"'), the support of whose Fourier transform is contained in a set :E(d) := {{I 1{1 ~ d}, we define W±f by {6.39)with taking J = Jd. Noting that the phase function cp(x,{) of Jd is equal to cp(x,{) = +(x,{)x+(x,{) + -(x,{)x-(x,{)

(6.160)

in :E(d)n {xi lxl ~ R}, we have a definition of W± independent of d > 0 and R =Rd> l by extending this W± to the whole space 1-lby preserving the boundedness. Since the proof of the existence of W± is quite similar to and simpler than that of the asymptotic completeness, we only prove the latter. We have already stated the outline of the proof of the asymptotic completeness at the beginning of this section. There what should be noted is that we prove the existence of the limit (6.47) for g = EH(B)g, where the Borel set B is a subset of (d2/2, b) for some d > 0 with 0 < d2/2 < b < oo. Then by (6.14), the energy restriction EH(B) is translated into the restriction E 0 (B) on the state e-itmHg = EH(B)e-itmHg as m -t oo. Thus asymptotically as tm -t oo, we can assume that the {-support ,)f the symbol P+({, y) of P+ satisfies (5.100) with u = d/2 on the state e-itmHg. Then we can let J = Jd in (6.41), and take P+ thereafter so that its symbol P+({, y) satisfies (5.97), (6.42), and (5.100) with u = d/2. What remains to be proved is then the estimation of the following factor in (6.44):

{6.161) By (6.159) we have

(6.162) By (6.15), the constant 0 +pin (5.97) can be taken arbitrarily as far as -1 < 0 + p < l. We here take 0 + p = u+ + p < l with p > 0, where u+ E (-1, 1) is the number specified in Theorem 6.6. w~write

(6.163) The last factor 1-:. is bounded and can be omitted in the estimation. So we have to estimate

We need a notion of order in the set of cluster decompositions. A cluster decomposition b is called a refinement of a cluster decomposition a, iff any Ce E b is a subset of some Dk E a. When b is !'I.refin~ment of a we denote this as b ::; a. b 1:.a is its negation: some cluster Ce Eb is not a subset of any Dk E a. Thus for a pair a= {i,j}, a ::; a means that a = {i, j} C Dk for some Dk E a, and a 1:.a means that a = {i, j} 1.

A partition of unity

To state a proposition that will play a fundamental role in our decomposition of continuous spectral subspace by Sl, we prepare some notations. Let b be a cluster decomposition with 2 ~ lbl ~ N. For any two clusters C1 and C2 in b, we define a vector Zbi that connects the two centers of mass of the clusters Ci and C2. The number of such vectors when we move over all pairs of clusters in bis

kb=

(

l~I ) in total. We denote these vectors by

Zbl, Zb2, • • • , Zbk&·

Let Zbk (1 ~ k ~ kb) connect two clusters Ce and Cm in b (£ "f' m). Then for any pair a = { i, j} with i E Ct and j E Cm, the vector Xe, = Xij is expressed like (zbk, x(Ct), x(Cm)) E Rv+v(ICtl-l)+v(ICml-1), where x(Ct)( E Rv(ICtl-1)) and x(Cm)( E Rv(ICml-1)) are the positions of ·;he particles i and j in C,.and Cm, respectively. The vector expression

= (zbk,x(Ce),x(C,,.))is in the

If we express it in the larger space R~bkx R;iN-lbl), it would be Xa = (zbk,xb), and lx0 ,l2= lzbkl2 + lxbl2 • Thus if lzbkl2 is 2 , e.g. if lzbkl2 > p > 0 and lxbl2 < 0 sufficiently large compared to lxbl2 ~ lx(Ce)l2 + lx(C,,.)1 2 > p/2 for all with p » 0 > 0 (which means that p/0 is sufficiently large), then lx0 1 a i b. Next if c < b and lei= lbl + 1, then just one cluster, say Ct E b, is decomposed into two clusters q and Cf in c, and other clusters in b remain the same in the finer cluster decomposition c. In this case, we can choose just one vector Zck (1 ::; k ::;;kc) that connects clusters C~ and Cf in c, and we can express xb = (zck,xc). The norm of this x0

space

Rv+v(ICel-l)+v(IC,,.l-l).

vector is written as (7.41) Similarly the norm of x

= (xb, xb) is written

as (7.42)

We recall that norm is defined, as usual, from the inner product defined by (7.13) which changes in accordance with the cluster decomposition used in each context. E.g., in (7.41), the left-hand side (LHS) is defined by using (7.13) for the cluster decomposition b and the RHS is by using (7.13) for c. With these preparations, we state the following lemma, which is partially a repetition of [24], Lemma 2.1. We define subsets n(p, 0) and Tb(P,0) of R;l = Rv(N-l) for cluster decompositions b with 2 ::; lbl ::; N and real numbers p, 0 with 1 > p, 0 > 0:

Under this assumption, we prove lxal2 > PNlxl2 for all pairs a = {i,j}. (Note that Zbkfor lbl = N equals some Xa,) Let lbl = 2 and write x = (zb1,xb). Then by (7.41), 1 \$ lxl 2 = lzbll2 + lxbl2, Since x belongs to the complement Ac of the set A, we have 2. If lzbll2 \$ Pibdxl2, then lxbl2 = lxl 2 - lzbll2 ~ (1 lzbll2 \$ Pibdxl2 or lxil 2 \$ (1- 0lbJ)lxl 2 2 2 2 Pibl)lxl ~ (01-PlbJ)l:cl ~ 01bdxl by 0j-1 ~ 0j+Pj· Thus lxbl2 = lxl 2- lxbl2 \$ (1-01b1)1xl for all b with lbl = 2. 2. Then by x E Ac, we can choose Next let lel = 3 and assume lxcl2 > (1 - 01c1)1xl 2 2 Zck with 1 \$ k \$ kc such that lzckl \$ Picdxl. Let C,. and Cm be two clusters in e connected by Zck,and let b be the cluster decomposition obtained by combining C,. and Cm into one cluster with retaining other clusters of e in b. Then lbl = 2, xb = (zck,xc), and lxbl2 = lzckl2 + l:ccl2- Thus lxbl2 = lxl 2 - lxbl2 = lxl 2 - lzckl2 - lxcl2 = lxcl2 - lzckl2 > 2 ~ (1-0lbl)lxl 2, which contradicts the result of the previous step. Thus (1-0Jcl - PJc1)1xl 2 ::orall e with lei = 3. 2 lxcl \$ (1 - 01c1)1xl 2, thus lxdl2 = Repeating this procedure, we finally arrive at lxdl2 \$ (1 - 01d1)1xl 2 2 2 2 2 lxl - lxdl ~ 01ddxl > PNlxl for all d with ldl = N - l. Namely lxal > PNlxl2 for all pairs a= {i,j}. The proof of (7.45) is complete.

7.3. A PARTITION OF UNITY

93

We next prove {7.47). By b ~ c, we can take a pair a= {i,j} and clusters C1.,CmE c such that a \$ b, i E Ct, j E Cm, and f. =/:-m. Then we can write Xa = (zcA:, xc) for some 1 1 1 \$ k \$ kc, Thus if there is x E Tb('Y Plbl, 'Y281bl) n Te('Yi'" Plel,'Y281e1), then 1 2 > 'Y11P1eilxl 2, 2 > lxbl2 ~ lxal 2 = lzbkl2 + lxel2 ~ lzcA:1 'Y281bilxl

But since lbl ~ lcl, we have Piel> 'Yl'Y281bl when lbl = lcl by {7.46), and Piel> 'Y1'Y281el ~ 'Y1'Y2(81bl + Plbl)> 'Y1'Y281bl when lcl < lbl by 8;-1 ~ 8; + P;, which both contradict the inequality (7.52). This completes the proof of {7.47). · (7.48) follows by a simple calculation from the inequality lxl 2{1 + 8N_1)- 1 \$ 1 that holds on SsN-i. {7.50) follows from the relation lx 0 12 = lzbkl2 + lxbl2 stated before the lemma, and (7.51) from 'Yt72= -y{l +-y) and ii).

A decomposition

The following theorem gives a decomposition of 1lc(H) by scattering spaces St(2 ::; lbl::;

(7.69)

2::,lbl::,N

Proof: Since the set

is dense in 1lc(H), and St (2 ::; lbl::;N) are closed and mutually orthogonal, it suffices to prove that any 4'(H)f with 4' E C0 (R 1 -T) and f E 1l can be decomposed as a sum of the elements fl in St: 'P(H)f = I:2:s,lbl:SNfl. We divide the proof into two steps. In the first step I), we prove existence of certain time limits. In the second step II), we prove existence of some "boundary values" of those limits, and conclude the proof of decomposition (7.69). I) Existence of some time limits: We decompose 'P(H)f as a finite sum: 'P(H)f = I:Jonite'lj;i0 (H)f, where 'l/JioE C0 (R 1 - T). In the step I), we will prove the existence of the limit L

Thus using (7.117)-(7.118) and rearranging the order of the factors in the first term on the RHS of (7.112) with some integrable errors, we have by Lemma 7.11: the 1st term where

The proof of the existence of these limits is similar to that of jl in (7.148), since the change in the present case is the appearance of the commutator [H,,,P 1 (Hb)]= [lb,,,P(Hb)] whose treatment is quite the same as that of the commutators including lb in (7.138). We introduce the decomposition (7.22) into hb and 9b on the left of e-itH,,p; 0 (H)f as in (7.71). Then by the factor Jb(vb/re)Gb,>.e(t), we see that only the terms with d::; bin the sum in (7.71) remain asymptotically as t = tm -+ oo by the arguments similar to step

On each summand Pd,E;ljd1: 1 in these terms (see (7.73)), Hb asymptotically equals H~ = Tj + Hd = Tj + E; ,,., lx~l2/(2t'!i) + E; ,,., lxbl2/(2t'!i) + E;, where for d ::; b, H~ = Tj + Hd = Hd - n, Tj = Td - n and xb = (x~,xd) is a clustered Jacobi coordinate inside the coordinate xb.

(7.177)

which, (7.174) and (7.176) imply (7.178) Thus we have a decomposition: (7.179)

g'( can be decompoued further by using the partition of unity of the ring u' ::; lxbl/t::; c5Jbl with regarding xb a.,a total variable x in Proposition 3.2. Arguing similarly to steps I) and II), we can prove that gt can be decomposed as a sum of the elements fJ of SJwith d < b. Combining this with (7.146), (7.178) and (7.179), we obtain (7.69). 0

One might expect that (7.184) and (7.188) are always true, but it is denied:

Then Eb(r1 ) \$ Eb(r2 ) for 0 \$ r 1 \$ r2 \$ 1, and the discontinuous points of Eb(r) with respect tor E [O,1] in the strong operator topology are at most countable. ii) Let O < f < 1/2 in Assumption 7.1. Then there are long-range pair potentials V0 (x0 ) such that for some cluster decomposition b with 2 \$ lbl \$ N, Eb(r) is discontinuous at r = ro, where f < r0 := (E+ 1)/3 < 1/2. In particular, there are real numbers r1 and r2 with O \$ r1 < ro < r2 \$ 1 such that

(7.189) .

CHAPTER 7. MANY-BODY HAMILTONIAN

110

Proof: i) By Proposition 7.6, s;;(0 ::; r ::; 1) is a family of closed subspaces of a separable Hilbert space 11.that increases when r E [O,1] increases. Thus the corresponding orthogonal projection Eb(r) (0::; r ::; 1) onto Sbincreases as r increases, and hence has at most a countable number of discontinuous points with respect tor E [O,1] in the strong operator topology. ii) holds by Theorem 4.3 of [49], Theorem 7.10 and Proposition 7.6, for b, lbl= N -1, with a suitable choice of pair potentials that satisfy Assumption 7.1. In fact, the sum of the ranges R(Wi) of Yafaev's wave operators Wn (n = 1, 2, · · ·) in Theorem 4.3 of [49] constitutes a subspace of (Eb(ro+ 0) - Eb(ro- 0))1£ for b with lbl= N - 1 by his construction of Wn, which means that Eb(r) is discontinuous at r = r0 • Here Eb(r0 ±0) = s- limr---+ro±O Eb(r).

A characterization tors

of the ranges of wave opera-

The purpose in this section is to prove relation (7.186) for general long-range pair potentials Va(xa) under Assumptions 7.1 and 7.2. The inclusion

(7.190) is a trivial relation :for any form of definition of the wave operators wb±. Thus our main concern is to prove the reverse inclusion

sgC R(Wj).

(7.191)

The proof of this inclusion is essentially the same for any definition of wave operators and is not difficult in th~ light of Enss method [8]. As announced, we here consider the wave operators of the form

(7.192) where Jb is an extension of the identification operator or stationary modifier introduced in [19]for two-body long-range case. The first task in this section is to construct Jb. Our relation (7.191) then follows from the definition of the scattering spaces sgand properties of Jb by Enss methc,d. To make the des,~riptions simple we hereafter consider the case = 0 for all pairs a. The recovery of the short-range potentials in the following arguments is easy. Let a C 00 function xo(x) of x ER." satisfy

111

Then hp(xb, t) satisfies (7.195) for any£ 2::0 and O < Eo 0 is a constant independent of t, Xb and p. Then we can apply almost the same arguments as in section 2 of [19] to get a solution 'Pb(xb,eb) of the eikonal equation: (7.196) in some conic region in phase space. More exactly we have the following theorems. Let

cos(zbk,(bk) :=

Zbk · (bk

IZbke I 1,bkeI ,

where lzbkle= (zbk· Zbk)112 is the Euclidean norm. We then set for Ro, d > 0 and 0 E (0, 1)

where (bk is the variable conjugate to Zbk·

Theorem 7.17 Let Assumption 7.1 be satisfied with Vf = 0 for all pairs a. Then there exists a C 00 function t(xb, eb) that satisfies the following properties: For any O < 0, d < 1, there exists a constant Ro > 1 such that for any (xb,eb) E f ±(Ro, d, 0) (7.197)

and (7.198)

where C0 13> 0 is a constant independent of (xb,eb) E f ±(Ro,d,0). From this we can derive the following theorem in quite the same way as that for Theorem 2.5 of [19]. Let O < 0 < 1 and let 'l/J±(r)E C 00 ([-1, 1]) satisfy Q ~

The order of products in (7.215) of factors in (7.217) and Jb1 may be arbitrary because these factors are rr..utually commutative asymptotically as t -r oo by virtue of (7.216). We note that d > 0 in the definition of Jb = Jb,9,d,ll-0can be taken smaller than a' > 0 beforehand since W,; is independent of d > 0 as mentioned.

Let x(x) (x E R,1 ) be a real-valued C 00 function with compact support such that x(O) = 1, and let .7 = g(x) be a complex-valued C 00 function with compact support

Let L 1 be the totality of the Lesbegue integrable functions on R 1 . For 0, there is a unitary operator S(E) on £ 2 (8 2 ), 8 2 being two dimensional sphere with radius one, such that for a.e.

for 'PE £ 2 (8 2 ). The integral kernel S(E, 0,w) with w being the direction of initial wave, is the scattering amplitude S(E, 0) stated in the above and IS(E, 0,w)l2 is called differential cross section. These are the most important quantities in physics in the sense that they are the only quantities which can be observed in actual physical observation. The energy level E in the previous example thus corresponds to the energy shell T = E, and the replacement of E by E' in the above means that T is replaced by a classical relativistic quantity E' = cy'-p2+ m 2c2-mc2. We have then seen that the calculation in the above gives a correct relativistic result, which explains the actual observation. Axiom 9.1 is concerned with the observation of the final stage of scattering phenomena. To include the gravity into our consideration, we extend Axiom 9.1 to the intermediate .process of quantum-mechanical evolution. The intermediate process cannot be an object of any actual observation, because the intermediate observation would change the process itself, consequently the result observed at the final stage would be altered. Our next Axiom 9.2 is an extension of Axiom 9.1 from the actual observation to the ideal observation in the sense that Axiom 9.2 is concerned with such invisible intermediate processes and modifies the ideal intermediate classical quantities by relativistic change of coordinates. The spirit of the treatment developed below is to trace the quantum-mechanical paths by ideal observations so that the quantities will be transformed into classical quantities at each step, but the quantum-mechanical paths will not be altered owing to the ideality of the observations. The classical· Hamiltonian obtained at the last step will be "requantized" to recapture the quantum-mechanical nature of the process, therefore the ideality of the intermediate observations will be realized in the final expression of the propagator of the observed system.

CHAPTER 9. OBSERVATION

130

9.3

The second step

With these remark:; in mind, we return to the general k cluster case, and consider a way to include gravity in our framework. In the scatterin:~ process into k 2: 1 clusters, what we observe are the centers of mass of those k clusters C1 , • • · , Ck, and of the combined system L = (L 1 , · · · , Lk), In the example of the two body case of section 9.2, only the combined system L = (L 1 , L 2 ) appears due to H 1 = H 2 = 0, therefore the replacement of T by E' is concerned with the free energy between two clusters C1 and C2 of the combined system L = (L 1 , L 2). Following this treatment of Tin the section 9.2, we replace T = Tb in the exponent of exp(-itLhb) = exp(-itL(Tb + h(xb, 0))) on the right hand side of the asymptotic relation (9.1) by the relativistic kinetic energy T£ among the clusters C 1 , · · · , Ck around the center of mass of L = (L 1 . · · · , Lk), defined by k

T£ =

L (cJp;

+ m;c 2 -

mic 2 ).

(9.3)

j=l

Here mi > 0 is the rest mass of the cluster Ci, which involves all the internal energies like the kinetic energies inside Ci and the rest masses of the particles inside Ci, and Pi is the relativistic momentum of the center of mass of Ci inside L around the center of mass of L. For simplicity, we assume that the center of mass of L is stationary relative to the observer. Then we can set in the exponent of exp(-itL(T£ + h(xb, 0)))

(9.4) where to is the observer's time. For the factors exp(-itLHi) on the right hand side of (9.1), the object of the ideal observation is the centers of mass of the k number of clusters C 1 , · · · , Ck. These are the ones which now require the relativistic treatment. Since we identify the clusters C 1, · · · , Ck as their centers of mass moving in a classical fashion, tL in the exponent of exp(-itLHi) should be replaced by c- 1 times the classical relativistic proper time at the origin of the local system Li, which is equal to the quantum-mechanical local time ti of the sub-local system Li. By the same reason and by the fact that Hi is the internal energy of the cluste,r Ci relative to its center of mass, it would be justified to replace the Hamiltonian Hi in the exponent of exp(-itiHi) by the classical relativistic energy inside the cluster Ci arou:1d its center of mass

(9.5) where mi > 0 is the same as in the above. Summing up, we arrive at the following postulate, which has the same spirit as in Axiom 9.1 and incbdes Axiom 9.1 as a special case concerned with actual observation: Axiom 9.2 In either actual or ideal observation, the space-time coordinates (ctL, xL) and the four momentum p =(pl')= (EL/c,pL) of the observed system L should be replaced by classical relativistic quantities, which are transformed into the classical quantities (eta, x 0 )

9.3. THE SECOND STEP

131

and p = (Eo/c,po) in the observer's system Lo according to the relativistic change of coordinates specified in Axioms 8.1 and 8.2. Here tL is the local time of the system L and XL is the internal space coordinates inside the system L; and EL is the internal energy of the system L and PL is the momentum of the center of mass of the system L.

In the case of the present scattering process into k clusters, the system Lin this axiom is each of the local systems Li (j = 1, 2, · · · , k) and L. We continue to consider the k centers of mass of the clusters C 1, · · · , Ck, At the final stage of the scattering process, the velocities of the centers of mass of the clusters C1, · · · , Ck would be steady, say v1, · · · , vk, relative to the observer's system. Thus, according to Axiom 9.2, the local times ti (j = 1, 2, · · · , k) in the exponent of exp(-itiH 1), which are equal to c- 1 times the relativistic proper times at the origins Xj = 0 of the local systems Li, are expressed in the observer's time coordinate t 0 by ti= t 0 J1 - (vi/c)

where we have assumed lvi/cl transformation:

(For simplicity, we wrote the Lorentz transformation for the case of 2-dimensional spacetime.) Inserting (9.3), (9.4), (9.5) and (9.6) into the right-hand side of (9.1), we obtain a classical approximation of the evolution:

exp (-ito[(Ti

(9.7)

under the What we want to clarify is the final stage of the scattering process. Thus as we have mentioned, we may assume that all clusters C1, · · · , Ck are far away from any of the other clusters and moving almost in steady velocities v1, · · · , vk relative to the observer. We denote by rij the distance between two centers of mass of the clusters Ci and Ci for 1 ~ i < j ~ k. Then, according to our spirit that we are observing the behavior of the centers of mass of the clusters C1, · · · , Ck in classical fashion following Axioms 8.1 and 8.2, the clusters C1, · · · , Ck can be regarded to have gravitation among them. This gravitation can be calculated if we assume Einstein's field equation, lvi/cl « 1, and certain conditions that the gravitation is weak (see [36], section 17.4), in addition to our Axioms 8.1 and 8.2. As an approximation of the first order, we obtain the gravitational potential of Newtonian type for, e.g., the pair of the clusters C1 and U1 = LJ7= 2 Ci: k

-G

L m1mi/r1i, i=2

where G is Newton's gravitational constant. Considering the k body classical problem for the k clusters C1 , · · · , Ck moving in the sum of these gravitational fields, we see that the sum of the kinetic energies of C1, · · · , Ck

1\$;i../(fim)= 271".

Thus p(v)

= hm/>..= 2hm/[(m0 )2c2].

This gives a period of the local system with the clock on the energy shell H exp(-itH/fi)

In particular, when v

= >../m:

= exp(-it>../(fim)).

= 0, the period p(O) takes the minimum value:

This we call the least period of time (LPT) of the local system. This gives a minimum cycle or period proper to the local system. The general p(v) is related to this by virtue of the Proposition 1 as follows: Proposition 2. p(v) = hm/>..= p(O)/

J1 - (v/c) 2 ('?_p(O)).

This means that the time p(v) that the clock of a local system, moving with velocity v relative to the observer, rounds 1 cycle when it is seen from the observer, is longer than the time p(O) that the observer's clock rounds 1 cycle, and the ratio is given by p(v)/p(O) = 1/ y'I"'=-(v/c) 2 ('?.1). Thus time, measured by our QM clock, of a local system moving with velocity v relative to the observer becomes slow with the rate Jl - (v/c) 2 ,

9.3. THE SECOND STEP

139

which is exactly the same as the rate that the special theory of relativity gives. This yields that the QM clock obeys the same transformation rule as that for classical relativistic clocks like light clock discussed at the beginning of this exercise, and shows that quantum mechanical clock is equivalent to the relativistic classical clock. These mean also that the space-time measured by using QM clock defined as the QM evolution of a local system follows the classical relativistic change of coordinates of space-time. Thus giving a consistent unification of QM and special relativistic CM. As for the validness of the name LPT, we see how it gives the Planck time:

tp = JGh/c

5

= 1.35125 x 10- 43 s,

where G is the gravitational constant. In fact, given Planck mass: mo = mp

= /hc1G = 5.45604 x

10- 5 g,

our LPT yields

p(O) = 2h/( /hc!Gc

2)

= 2.jhG/c5 = 2tp,

which is 2 times Planck time. II. N-particles case with masses m; (j

= 1, 2, · · · , N)

We consider the case after the local system L of N particles are scattered sufficiently. Then the system's solution asymptotically behaves as follows as the system's time t = tL goes to oo (see (9.1)):

exp(-itLHL/li)f

rv

exp(-itLhb/li)go ® exp(-itLHi/1i)g1 ® · · · ® exp(-itLHk/li)gk,

where hb =Tb+ Ib(xb,0) and k 2'.:1. Now for getting the above result also in this case it suffices to note that the Hamiltonians H1.(.e= 1, 2, ..., k) of each scattered cluster are treated just as in the case I) above but with using a general theorem on the spectral representation of self-adjoint operators H1., H1.are not necessarily free Hamiltonians and we cannot use the Fourier transformation, but we can use spectral representation theorem so that each He is expressed, unitarily equivalently, as )..e/ Me in some appropriate Hilbert space, where Me is the mass of the £-th cluster. Then it is done quite analogously to I) to derive the propositions 1 and 2 above in the present case. Of course these relations depend on .e,and show that the dependence of mass and time of each cluster on the relative velocity to the observer is exactly the same as the special theory of relativity gives as in the case I) above. One of the important consequences of these arguments is that the quantum clock is equal to the classical relativistic clock, which has remained unexplained as one of the greatest mysteries in modern physics in spite of the observed fact that they coincide with high precision.

Part IV Conclusions

Chapter 10 Inconsistency

of Mathematics?

To begin with stating our conclusive thought of this book, we consider that almost all of what we think would be able to be translated into mathematical words insofar as we consider about physical universe as we see in ordinary physical works after Galileo, Descartes, Newton, till the present age. Thus to consider our description of the universe, it would be inevitable to think about metamathematics and set theory which construct the basis of the modern mathematics. In the next chapter, we will try to describe the universe as a contradictory aspect of our language, or exactly speaking, of our mathematical language, in that it could include all sentences as at least meaningful ones so is regarded contradictory as a whole of those meaningful sentences. To be prepared for that purpose, in this chapter we will try to see if mathematics or set theory which is thought to be a basis of modern mathematics is consistent or not. As is well-known, in 1903, Russell's paradoxical set produced immense discussions about the foundation of mathematics, so follows Hilbert's formalism of mathematics, but this direction was negatively answered by Godel [15]. We will see in this chapter how this theorem of Godel seems to give a problem that looks telling that mathematics itself is inconsistent. We consider a formal set theory 8, where we can develop a number theory. As no generality is lost, in the following we consider a number theory that can be regarded as a subsystem of 8, and will call it 3(o). Definition 10.1 1} We assume that a Godel numbering of the system 3(o) is given, and denote a formula with the Godel number n by An. 2) A (O)( a, b) is a predicate meaning that "a is the Godel number of a formula A with just one free variable {which we denote by A(a)), and b is the Godel number of a proof of the formula A(a) in 3(o)," and B( 0l(a, c) is a predicate meaning that "a is the Godel number of a formula A(a), and c is the Godel number of a proof of the formula ,A(a) in 3(o)." Here a denotes the formal natural number corresponding to an intuitive natural number a of the meta level. Definition 10.2 Let P(xi, · · · .xn) be an intuitive-theoretic predicate. We say that P(x 1 , · · • , Xn) is numeralwise expressible in the formal system 3(o), if there is a formula P(xi, · · · , Xn) with no free variables other than the distinct variables xi,··· , Xn such that, for each particular n-tuple of natural numbers xi,··· , Xn, the following holds: 143

CHAPTER 10. INCONSISTENCY OF MATHEMATICS?

144

i) ifP(x1,···

,xn) is true, thenl-P(x1,···

,Xn).

and ii) if P(x1, · · · ,xn) is false, then I- ,P(x1, · · · ,Xn). Here "true" means "provable on the meta level," and I- P means that a formula P is provable in the formal system, e.g., 5(o). 10.3 There is a Godel numbering of the formal objects of the system 5(o) such 0)(a, c) defined aboveare primitive recursive and hence that the predicatesA(o)(a, b) and B< numeralwise expres.Yible in 5(o) with the associatedformulas A(q< 0>,k< 0>) Hence, for any integ,~r£, B< £) is false. In particular, B< 0), ... , B< 0>(a,c), from these follows that are false. By virtue of the numeralwise expressibility of B
(q(o.l) or -,Aqc"'>(q(o.l)) is defined recursively. Thus ii(,) is recursively well-defined for,::; a:. This completes the proof of the lemma. Assume now that a: is a countable limit ordinal such that there is an increasing sequence of recursive ordinals O:n< a: with 00

a:= Uo:n.

(12.9)

n=O

An actual example of such an a: is the Church-Kleene ordinal wfK. In the system B(o.), the totality of the added axioms A("Y) ( 1 < a:) is the sum of the added axioms A("Y) (, < o:n)of 3(0.n). By the lemma, ii(,) is recursively defined for,< O:n. Thus in each 3(0.n) we can determine recursively whether or not a given formula Ar is an axiom of 3(0.n) by soeing, for a finite number of ,'s with ii(,) ::; rand,< O:n,if A("Y) = Ar or not. This is extended to 3(0.). To see this, we have only to see the ,'s with ii(,) ::; rand 1 < a:, and determine for those finite number of ,'s if A(-y)= Ar or not. By (12.9),

ii(,) ~; r and , < a:-# 3n such that q(,) ::; r and , < O:n. Then by induction on n with using the above result for 3(0.n) in the preceding paragraph and noting that the bound r on q(1 ) is uniform in n, we can show that the condition whether or not ii(1 ) ::; r and , < a: is recursively determined. Then within those finite number of ,'s with ii(,)::; rand,< a:, we can decide recursively if for some,< a: with ii(,) ::; r, we have Ar = A("Y) or not. Therefore we can determine recursively whether or not a given formula.Ar is an axiom of 3(0.). Therefore Godel predicate A(o.)(a,b) and Rosser predicate B(o.)(a,c) are recursively defined, and hence are numeralwise expressible in 3(0.). Then the Godel number q(o.)of the formula \ib[-,A(o.)(a,b) V 3c(c::; b & B(o.)(a,c))] is well-defined, anc, hence Rosser formula Age"'> (q(o.)) is well-defined and Rosser-Godel

theorem applies to the system 3(0.). Therefore we can extend 3(0.) consistently by adding one of Rosser formula or its negation A(o.) (= Age"'> (q(o.))or -,Age"'> (q(o.l)) to the axioms of 3(0.) and get a consistent system 3(0.+1). In particular if we assume a least nonrecursive ordinal wfK exists and take a: = wfK, we get a consistent system 3{wfK+1). This contradicts the case ii) of theorem 10.6 in chapter 10. We leaYethe following problem to the reader.

12.3. A REFINED ARGUMENT

163

Question. The least nonrecursive ordinal, the so-called Church-Kleene ordinal wfK has been assumed to give a bound on recursive construction of formal systems (see [12], [44], [47]). However the above argument seems to question if wfK really exists in usual set theoretic sense. How should we think?
