Quantization of Hamiltonian systems with a position dependent mass: Killing vector fields and Noether momenta approach

Quantization of Hamiltonian systems with a position dependent mass: Killing vector fields and Noether momenta approach

The quantization of systems with a position dependent mass (PDM) is studied. We present a method that starts with the study of the existence of Killing vector fields for the PDM geodesic motion (Lagrangian with a PDM kinetic term but without any potential) and the construction of the associated Noether …
