Quantum References for generalized canonical commutation relations

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on seeking references for articles that explore generalized canonical commutation relations, specifically where the relation includes a real constant c, expressed as [x,p]=icħ. It is noted that much of the existing literature uses the case where c=1/ħ, often indicating that they are working in units where ħ=1. Participants are encouraged to share relevant sources or insights on this topic. The inquiry highlights a niche area of interest within the physics community regarding variations in commutation relations. Overall, the request aims to expand knowledge on this specific theoretical framework.

Hi to all, I ask if somebody of the Physics community know good references for article where the author works with generalized canonical commutation relations ( I mean that the author works with ##[x,p]=ic\hbar## with ##c## a real constant instead of ##[x,p]=i\hbar##).
Thank you for the answers,
Ssnow

There is a lot of literature with ##c=1/\hbar##, they usually say that they work in units ##\hbar=1##. o0)
 

Thread 'WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY? A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
