The symplectic group in Polymer Quantum Mechanics

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper we provide the representation of the symplectic group Sp(2n,R)Sp(2n, \mathbb{R}) in polymer quantum mechanics. We derive the propagator of the polymer free particle and the polymer harmonic oscillator without considering a polymer scale. The polymer scale is then introduced to reconcile our results with those expressions for the polymer free particle. The propagator for the polymer harmonic oscillator implies non-unitary evolution.
