Regularization of $\Delta'$ Potential in General Case of Deformed Space Regularization of δ0 potential in general case of deformed space with minimal length M. I. Samar and V. M. Tkachuk Professor Ivan Vakarchuk Department for Theoretical Physics, Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, 12 Drahomanov St, Lviv, UA-79005, Ukraine August 27, 2021 Abstract In general case of deformed Heisenberg algebra leading to the minimal length we present a definition of the δ0(x) potential as a linear kernel of potential energy operator in momentum represenation. We find exactly the energy level and corresponding eigenfunction for δ0(x) and δ(x) − δ0(x) potentials in deformed space with arbitrary function of deformation. The energy spectrum for different partial cases of deformation function is analysed. Keywords: deformed Heisenberg algebra, minimal length, delta prime potential. PACS numbers: 03.65.Ge, 02.40.Gh 1 Introduction String theory and quantum gravity suggest the existence of minimal length as a finite lower bound to the possible resolution of length [1{3]. Kempf et al. showed that minimal length can be achieved by modifying usual canonical commutation relations [4{7]. One of the simplest deformed Heisenberg algebra in one-dimensional case is the one proposed by Kempf [4] 2 [X;^ P^] = i~(1 + βP^ ); (1) p leading to minimal length ~ β. More general deformed algebra has the form [X;^ P^] = i~f(P^); (2) where f is called function of deformation, being strictly positive (f > 0), even function. Algebra (2) admits the arXiv:2108.11049v2 [quant-ph] 26 Aug 2021 following representation d X^ =x ^ = i ; (3) ~dp P^ = g(p): dg(p) Function g(p) is an odd function satisfying dp = f(g(p)). It is defined on finite domain p 2 [−b; b], with b = g−1(a). Here a denotes the limit of momentum P 2 [−a; a]. Note that finiteness of b provides the existence of minimal uncertainty in position [8]. The study of the effect of the minimal length on systems with singular potentials or point interactions is of particular interest, since such systems are expected to have a nontrivial sensitivity to minimal length. The impact of the minimum length has been studied in the context of the following problems with singularity in 1 potential energy: hydrogen atom [9{16], gravitational quantum well [17{19], a particle in delta potential and double delta potential [20, 21], one-dimensional Coulomb-like problem [21{23], particle in the singular inverse square potential [24{27], two-body problems with delta and Coulomb-like interactions [28]. In undeformed quantum mechanics the interest in studies of point interactions is twofold. The first reason is that point interaction is a good model of a very localized interaction connected with different structures like quantum waveguides [29, 30], spectral filters [31, 32], or infinitesimally thin sheets [33, 34]. Another reason is that it is often possible for such systems to obtain the solution exactly. The problem of the correct interpretation of the hamiltonian with δ0-function in potential energy 2 d2 H^ = − ~ − κδ0(x) (4) 2m dx2 has been considered in literature since the 80s of last century [35{37]. The δ0-potential is very sensitive to a way of its regularization. From a physical point of view, this means that there is no unique one-dimensional model of the delta prime interaction described by the hamiltonian (4). In order to avoid any confusion it should be emphasized that there can be distinguished a few different approches corresponding to δ0-potential definition. By the first time δ0-interaction was considered in [35]. The hamiltonian H was defined as the one-parameter family of self-adjoint extensions of an operator 2 d2 H = − ~ (5) β 2m dx2 acting on the domain of wavefunction with derivative to be continuous, while the wavefunction has a jump proportional to its derivative at x = 0 0(−0) = 0(+0); (+0) − (−0) = β 0(0); (6) with β depending on κ, defined in (4). It was shown in [37] that this selfadjoint extensions correspond to the heuristic operator 2 d2 H = − ~ + βjδ0 >< δ0j; (7) β 2m dx2 with renormalized coupling. Here jδ0 >< δ0j denotes the following operator Z (jδ0 >< δ0j )(x) = δ0(x) δ0(y) (y)dy: (8) Operator (7) is not very good to describe the δ0-potential, thus. In [38] it was proposed to define self-adjoint operator (4) using distribution theory for discontinuous functions and derive the following boundary conditions at the point where the interaction occurs κ (+0) − (−0) = ( (+0) + (−0)) (9) 2 κ 0(+0) − 0(−0) = − ( 0(+0) + 0(−0)) : (10) 2 In the same paper [37] the alternative definition of the problem was proposed 2 d2 κ H = − ~ + (δ(x + ") + δ(x − ")): (11) β 2m dx2 "α Hovewer, Seba has proved that in the limit of " ! 0 the interaction disappears if α < 1=2, appears as a δ(x) potential for α = 1=2 and splits the system into two independent subsystems lying on the half-lines (−∞; 0) and (0; 1) if α > 1=2. The one more way of defining the Schr¨odingeroperator with a potential δ0 is to approximate δ0 by regular potentials and then to investigate the convergence of the corresponding family of regular Schr¨odingeroperators. This approach was firstly realized in [37] and studied in [39, 40]. 2 The aim of this paper is to show that in case of generalized uncertainty principle it is possible to introduce δ0(x) potential in some natural way for deformed space with minimal length. Our proposal leads to the regu- larization of the divergent integrals associated with the energy levels of the δ0(x) potential in one-dimensional nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. We organize the rest of this paper as follows. In Section 2, we propose the definition of δ0(x) potential in momentum representation in general case of deformed space with minimal length and obtain the exact relation from which the corresponding bound states energies can be extracted . In Section 3, the Schr¨odingerequation with δ(x) − δ0(x) potential in context of minimal length assumption is solved exactly. Some concluding remarks are reported in the last section. 2 δ0 potential In general case of deformed space with minimal length Schr¨odingerequation in the momentum representation can be written as g2(p) Z b φ(p) + U(p − p0)φ(p0)dp0 = Eφ(p) (12) 2m −b with U(p−p0) being the kernel of the potential energy operator. In undeformed space this kernel can by obtained by 1 Z 1 i U(p − p0) = V (x) exp − (p − p0)x dx: (13) 2π~ −∞ ~ In case of the delta prime interaction V (x) = κδ0(x) the kernel of potential energy is iκ U(p − p0) = (p − p0): (14) 2π~2 We assume that in deformed space with minimal length U(p − p0) is still expessed by formula (14) and write the Schr¨odingerequation for the delta prime potential in general case of deformed space with minimal length as Z b 2 2 iκm 0 0 0 (g(p) + q )φ(p) + 2 (p − p )φ(p )dp = 0: (15) π~ −b The solution of (15) can be proposed in the form Ap + B (p) = : (16) g2(p) + q2 Substituting (16) into (15) we obtain the following formulas iκm Z b dp A + 2 B 2 2 = 0; (17) π~ −b g (p) + q iκm Z b p2dp B − 2 A 2 2 = 0; (18) π~ −b g (p) + q which yield the equation for energy spectrum 1 = αI1(")I2(") (19) κ2m2 where α = 2 4 and π ~ Z b dp Z 1 dy I1(") = b 2 2 = 2 2 (20) −b g (p) + q −1 k (y) + " 1 Z b p2dp Z 1 y2dy I2(") = 2 2 = 2 2 (21) b −b g (p) + q −1 k (y) + " 3 p q with y = b 2 [−1; 1], g(p) = bk(y) and " = b . It is important to note that in undeformed limit b ! 1 integral I1(") diverges and Schr¨odingerequation (12) has no solution. In case of finite b integrals in (19) are convergent and the problem of delta prime potential is regularized in deformed space with minimal length. Both integrals I1(") and I2(") are positive and decreasing functions of " > 0. This means that equation (19) has only one solution since α can take only positive values. Let us find the energy spectra of considerable problem for some special examples of deformation function. Example 1.

What does this phenomenon consist of? Viacheslav Briukhovetsky: We should begin with the fact that like most universities of the time, the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy (KMA) had its beginnings as a school. Such was the case with Oxford and most other prominent universities that also had their beginnings as small schools. The school from which the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy emerged was the Bratsk [Brotherhood] Orthodox School of the Bratsk Monastery. Its founder was Halshka Hulevychivna, who did not form the school’s academic concept, but provided land and buildings for the school (including her own domicile). The first rector was Iov Boretsky, who mapped the ideology of the school. It is more than likely that the Bratsk School was not founded in 1615. Information exists (unfortunately, no documents survive) that this could have happened in 1585. But the first documented date is 1615. In 1632 Petro Mohyla united the Bratsk and Lavra monastery schools 2 Kyiv-Mohyla Humanities Journal 2 (2015) and set the principle that the new school was not to be just an Orthodox school, but a school modelled on European Jesuit schools, those schools that the new school was to polemicize with.

    Written Comments by Hungarian Researchers and NGOs in Transcarpathia (Ukraine) on the Fourth Periodic Report of Ukraine on the implementation of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities Berehovo – Beregszász, January 20, 2017 1 2 Executive summary This alternative report is submitted by Hungarian researchers and non-governmental organizations representing the Hungarian community living in Transcarpathia county (Закарпатська область) of Ukraine. The report is prepared with the cooperation of members of the Transcarpathian Hungarian Cultural Association, the Transcarpathian Association of Hungarian Pedagogues, the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Ukraine, the A. Hodinka Linguistic Research Centre, and the T. Lehoczky Research Centre. It focuses on issues of implementation of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities in Transcarpathia, and aims to complement the government’s periodic report by shedding light on the perspective of the national minorities and the users of regional and minority languages and point out some problematic issues, which remain unsolved despite the ratification of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities. The following comments address issues raised in the Ukrainian Government’s report. They are structured according to the Articles of the Framework Convention. These comments are in no way comprehensive, and a lack of response to some of the Government’s statements should not indicate their acceptance or endorsements. Simply for the sake of brevity we concentrated on questions that seemed to be the most important, or where the most relevant recent developments have taken place. Ukraine, which became independent in 1991, is undergoing its most serious crisis. Besides the political and economic troubles it has to deal with a military conflict as well.

  • On Higher Education,” Reforms, Kyiv-­­Mohyla Academy
    Higher Education in Ukraine in the Time of Independence: Between Brownian Motion and Revolutionary Reform Author(s): Serhiy Kvit Source: Kyiv-Mohyla Humanities Journal 7 (2020): 141–159 Published by: National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy http://kmhj.ukma.edu.ua/ Higher Education in Ukraine in the Time of Independence: Between Brownian Motion and Revolutionary Reform Serhiy Kvit National Agency for Higher Education Quality Assurance; National University of Kyiv-­­Mohyla Academy, Mohyla School of Journalism Abstract The article explores major milestones in reforming higher education in Ukraine, applying the methodology of case studies. It analyzes political and social conditions that influenced the process of reform. The author pays particular attention to the concept of university autonomy, its development and implementation in Ukraine, considering legal and institutional efforts. The impact and experience of some leading institutions like Kyiv-Mohyla­­ Academy is discussed. The author concludes that the task of ensuring comprehensive university autonomy is of a political nature. This is the only reliable instrument for raising of quality of Ukrainian higher education. Key Words: University autonomy, quality assurance, Law of Ukraine “On Higher Education,” reforms, Kyiv-­­Mohyla Academy. 3 The goal of this article is to identify major milestones and relationships between the main tasks involved in reforming Ukrainian higher education. Such a task can be accomplished on the condition that one understands the nature and process of reforms. On the one hand, I am called upon as a scholar to conditionally maintain an “objective” position. However, I have persistently been a participant of events, so my view is somewhat biased by my position within the process, rather than that of an outside observer.

  • Political Responses to Worker Dissent in Ukraine During the Financial Crisis
    Eduard Klein emecon 1/2014, www.emecon.eu/Klein Employment and economy in Central and Eastern Europe emecon.eu Post-Soviet anti-corruption reforms in higher education: Explaining the success of external independent testing in Ukraine Eduard Klein Corruption during university admission has become an endemic phenomenon in many post-Soviet states. In the last decade, most countries in the region reformed their admission system and implemented external exams to combat corruption and provide equal access to qualitative education. Ukraine introduced its External Independent Testing (EIT) in 2008. Despite a non-favourable socio-political context, experts and the majority of citizens regard the EIT as one of the most successful reforms in Ukraine. How can this positive outcome be explained? The paper argues that in addition to the distinctive political will of key stakeholders and the involvement of domestic NGOs in the reform implementation, external democracy promotion programs which fostered capacity building were a decisive factor for the success. To prove this claim, the article traces the reform process, focusing on the impact of the main external actors. Key words: Anti-Corruption, higher education, civil-society advocacy, external assessment, external democracy promotion, Ukraine. Introduction The collapse of communism and, as a consequence, the complex systematic transformation of the political, economic and societal sphere in the post-Soviet world had an enormous impact on the higher educational systems in the successor countries. The Soviet education system, characterized by, among other things, an ideological orientation towards “real existing socialism”, centralisation, tight state control under the ministries, a strong hierarchy, political cadre demand, priority placed on technical disciplines (Mühle 1995), had to be radically reformed and transformed into an internationally competitive and market-oriented higher education sector.

Under globalization, europeisation of social and economics processes the role of educational migration as an important and intellectual by content form of the migratory movements of population grows. A present manifestation and peculiarities of this process are caused by a creation of joint „European Higher Education Area” and „ European Research Area” that provide the openness of academic movement - for students, teachers and researchers. Under globalization next to four freedoms of movements (capital, labour force, commodities and services), the «fifth freedom» for the common market of European Union becomes institutional – it’s the freedom of movement of knowledge. Removal of virtual, though perceptible borders between the historically different educational systems requires the introduction of the clear system of diplomas, transparency of awarding of scientific degrees, equivalence of qualifications for all the participants of this process. Educational migration in Europe has its deep historical roots.

  • ANTIQUITY and WE Introduction Katarzyna Marciniak, from the Antiquity and We OBTA and Civilizational Studies
    Antiquity and We at the Centre for Studies on the Classical Tradition (OBTA) ANTIQUITY At the same time, thanks to Professor Kazimierz Kumaniecki and Professor Lidia Win- niczuk [...], a certain ideological message got through to us. It was not enunciated explicitly, but rather implicitly. It was the conviction that the reception of ancient tradition was a living part of Polish collective memory and a marker of its transformations; that being aware AND WE of that tradition authorized and obliged us to speak and think of Poland and its place within Mediterranean civilization. Jerzy Axer, from Antiquity and We – The Perspective of the Period of Transformation ANTIQUITY AND WE The Humanities are always about the future of man, which he himself is not able to create without reaching to the resources generated in the past. Interdisciplinariness is getting to know the process in practice. The dialogic character of the Humanities also begins here. As an exer- cise in dialogue, OBTA perfectly fits my vision of the role that we are to play in society. Jan Kieniewicz, from OBTA and Civilizational Studies. Experiences and Prospects [...] reception studies view Antiquity as a cultural experience. In consequence, rather than the classical world as such, we examine the images of that world as created in subsequent epochs, in accordance with the assumption that each new deciphering of the classical legacy gives us knowledge about those who make the decoding in the first place. In this way, Classical Anti- quity becomes a reference point for generations, societies, and both small and large groups of culture recipients, wherever Mediterranean Civilization has managed to reach.
