In the recent literature there has been a resurgence of interest in the fourth-order field-theoretic model of Pais-Uhlenbeck cite {Pais-Uhlenbeck 50 a}, which has not had a good reception over the last half century due to the existence of {em ghosts} in the properties of the quantum mechanical solution. Bender and Mannheim cite{Bender 08 a} were successful in persuading the corresponding quantum operator to `give up the ghost. Their success had the advantage of making the model of Pais-Uhlenbeck acceptable to the physical community and in the process added further credit to the cause of advancement of the use of ${cal PT} $ symmetry. We present a case for the acceptance of the Pais-Uhlenbeck model in the context of Diracs theory by providing an Hamiltonian which is not quantum mechanically haunted. The essential point is the manner in which a fourth-order equation is rendered into a system of second-order equations. We show by means of the method of reduction of order cite {Nucci} that it is possible to construct an Hamiltonian which gives rise to a satisfactory quantal description without having to abandon Dirac.
A recipe is presented for constructing band-limited superoscillating functions that exhibit arbitrarily high frequencies over arbitrarily long intervals.
Quantum control could be implemented by varying the system Hamiltonian. According to adiabatic theorem, a slowly changing Hamiltonian can approximately keep the system at the ground state during the evolution if the initial state is a ground state. I
A novel C*-algebraic framework is presented for relativistic quantum field theories, fixed by a Lagrangean. It combines the postulates of local quantum physics, encoded in the Haag-Kastler axioms, with insights gained in the perturbative approach to
In this paper we give a new and constructive approach to stationary scattering theory for pairs of self-adjoint operators $H_0$ and $H_1$ on a Hilbert space $mathcal H$ which satisfy the following conditions: (i) for any open bounded subset $Delta$ o
According to the algebraic approach to spacetime, a thoroughgoing dynamicism, physical fields exist without an underlying manifold. This view is usually implemented by postulating an algebraic structure (e.g., commutative ring) of scalar-valued funct
