We study the eigenvalue equation for the Cartesian coordinates observables $x_i$ on the fully $O(2)$-covariant fuzzy circle ${S^1_Lambda}_{Lambdainmathbb{N}}$ ($i=1,2$) and on the fully $O(3)$-covariant fuzzy 2-sphere ${S^2_Lambda}_{Lambdainmathbb{N}}$ ($i=1,2,3$) introduced in [G. Fiore, F. Pisacane, J. Geom. Phys. 132 (2018), 423-451]. We show that the spectrum and eigenvectors of $x_i$ fulfill a number of properties which are expected for $x_i$ to approximate well the corresponding coordinate operator of a quantum particle forced to stay on the unit sphere.

We construct various systems of coherent states (SCS) on the $O(D)$-equivariant fuzzy spheres $S^d_Lambda$ ($d=1,2$, $D=d!+!1$) constructed in [G. Fiore, F. Pisacane, J. Geom. Phys. 132 (2018), 423-451] and study their localizations in configuration space as well as angular momentum space. These localizations are best expressed through the $O(D)$-invariant square space and angular momentum uncertainties $(Deltaboldsymbol{x})^2,(Deltaboldsymbol{L})^2$ in the ambient Euclidean space $mathbb{R}^D$. We also determine general bounds (e.g. uncertainty relations from commutation relations) for $(Deltaboldsymbol{x})^2,(Deltaboldsymbol{L})^2$, and partly investigate which SCS may saturate these bounds. In particular, we determine $O(D)$-equivariant systems of optimally localized coherent states, which are the closest quantum states to the classical states (i.e. points) of $S^d$. We compare the results with their analogs on commutative $S^d$. We also show that on $S^2_Lambda$ our optimally localized states are better localized than those on the Madore-Hoppe fuzzy sphere with the same cutoff $Lambda$.
We briefly report our recent construction of new fuzzy spheres of dimensions d=1,2 covariant under the full orthogonal group O(D), D=d+1. They are built by imposing a suitable energy cutoff on a quantum particle in D dimensions subject to a confining potential well V(r) with a very sharp minimum on the sphere of radius r=1; furthermore, the cutoff and the depth of the well depend on (and diverge with) a natural number L. The commutator of the coordinates depends only on the angular momentum, as in Snyder noncommutative spaces. When L diverges, the Hilbert space dimension diverges, too; S^d_L converges to S^d, and we recover ordinary quantum mechanics on S^d. These models might be useful in quantum field theory, quantum gravity or condensed matter physics.
An algorithm to compute Connes spectral distance, adaptable to the Hilbert-Schmidt operatorial formulation of non-commutative quantum mechanics, was developed earlier by introducing the appropriate spectral triple and used to compute infinitesimal distances in the Moyal plane, revealing a deep connection between geometry and statistics. In this paper, using the same algorithm, the Connes spectral distance has been calculated in the Hilbert-Schmidt operatorial formulation for the fuzzy sphere whose spatial coordinates satisfy the $su(2)$ algebra. This has been computed for both the discrete, as well as for the Perelemovs $SU(2)$ coherent state. Here also, we get a connection between geometry and statistics which is shown by computing the infinitesimal distance between mixed states on the quantum Hilbert space of a particular fuzzy sphere, indexed by $ninmathbb{Z}/2$.
We discuss the (right) eigenvalue equation for $mathbb{H}$, $mathbb{C}$ and $mathbb{R}$ linear quaternionic operators. The possibility to introduce an isomorphism between these operators and real/complex matrices allows to translate the quaternionic problem into an {em equivalent} real or complex counterpart. Interesting applications are found in solving differential equations within quaternionic formulations of quantum mechanics.
We study several formulations of zero-mass relativistic equations, stressing similarities between different frameworks. It is shown that all these massless wave equations have fermionic as well as bosonic solutions.
