Time in Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory

arXiv:quant-ph/0211047 · doi:10.1088/0305-4470/36/18/317

Abstract

W. Pauli pointed out that the existence of a self-adjoint time operator is incompatible with the semibounded character of the Hamiltonian spectrum. As a result, people have been arguing a lot about the time-energy uncertainty relation and other related issues. In this article, we show in details that Pauli's definition of time operator is erroneous in several respects.
