Potentials Unbounded Below

Continuous interpolates are described for classical dynamical systems defined by discrete time-steps. Functional conjugation methods play a central role in obtaining the interpolations. The interpolates correspond to particle motion in an underlying potential, V. Typically, V has no lower bound and...

description Continuous interpolates are described for classical dynamical systems defined by discrete time-steps. Functional conjugation methods play a central role in obtaining the interpolations. The interpolates correspond to particle motion in an underlying potential, V. Typically, V has no lower bound and can exhibit switchbacks wherein V changes form when turning points are encountered by the particle. The Beverton-Holt and Skellam models of population dynamics, and particular cases of the logistic map are used to illustrate these features.

This paper is a contribution to the Proceedings of the Workshop “Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics and Spectral Design” (July 18–30, 2010, Benasque, Spain). The full collection is available at http://www.emis.de/journals/SIGMA/SUSYQM2010.html.
 I would like to thank the organizers of the workshop on Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics and Spectral Design, Centro de Ciencias de Benasque Pedro Pascual, for the excellent job they did, and for giving me the opportunity to talk about this work. I also thank Andrzej Veitia and Cosmas Zachos for sharing their thoughts about functional evolution methods, and the anonymous referees for suggestions and questions that led to improvements in the manuscript. Finally, I thank the CERN Theoretical Physics Group for its gracious hospitality and generous support during my sabbatical in 2010. This work was also supported in part by NSF Award 0855386.
