The Canonical Approach to Quantum Gravity
... As we have seen, the initial data for the gravitational variables consist of a differentiable 3-manifold Σ, a Riemannian metric h – the configuration variable, and another symmetric second rank tensor field K on Σ – the velocity variable. However, the pair (h, K) cannot be chosen arbitrarily. This is b ...

... Given the Uncertainty Principle, how do you write an equation of motion for a particle? •First, remember that a particle is only a particle sort of, and a wave sort of, and it’s not quite like anything you’ve encountered in classical physics. We need to use Fourier’s Theorem to represent the partic ...

Quantum Statistical Mechanics Initial questions: What holds up
... A simple way to remember how to get a Fermi momentum comes from the uncertainty principle. This says that ∆p∆x > h̄. If the number density is n, then the typical region in which a particle is confined has dimension ∆x ∼ n−1/3 . This implies that the Fermi momentum is pF ∼ ∆p ∼ h̄n1/3 . In nonrelativ ...
