Orbital angular momentum
... We construct the operators and the eigenfunctions of orbital angular momentum, L = r × p, in the Hilbert space of position eigenstates. Then the usual differential operator for p can be used. Under the scaling r → ξr, one has p → p/ξ, so that L is independent of the scale of the radius, ξ. Hence in ...

One might hold that the human failure to achieve established metaphysical results is due to some special quirk of the human mind, a quirk that could be absent from the minds of Martians or intelligent dolphins. Evolutionary biology suggests that human beings possess a very specific set of mental ta ...

... Boson excitations can further lead to quantum depletion of the condensate out of the ground state. Such “leaking” of gravitons can be interpreted (at least in a first order approximation) as the emission of Hawking radiation. This kind of toy model is very intuitive and also gives an elegant quantum ...

To summarise, the reduced density matrices that one is interested in, both for thermal and quantum entanglement, are expressed in terms of topologic ...
