• Abstract summary: We extend the publicly available quantumfdtd code. It was originally intended for solving the time-independent three-dimensional Schr"odinger equation via the finite-difference time-domain method. We add two optimized FFT-based kinetic energy terms for the non-relativistic case. The code now supports arbitrary external file-based potentials and the option to project out distinct parity eigenstates from the solutions.

• Abstract: We extend the publicly available quantumfdtd code. It was originally intended for solving the time-independent three-dimensional Schr\"odinger equation via the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method and for extracting the ground, first, and second excited states. We (a) include the case of the relativistic Schr\"odinger equation and (b) add two optimized FFT-based kinetic energy terms for the non-relativistic case. All the three new kinetic terms are computed using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). We release the resulting code as version 3 of quantumfdtd. Finally, the code now supports arbitrary external file-based potentials and the option to project out distinct parity eigenstates from the solutions. Our goal is quark models used for phenomenological descriptions of QCD bound states, described by the three-dimensional Schr\"odinger equation. However, we target any field where solving either the non-relativistic or the relativistic three-dimensional Schr\"odinger equation is required.

  We present a new interpretation of quantum mechanics, called the double-scale theory. It is based on the simultaneous existence of two wave functions in the laboratory reference frame. The external wave function corresponds to a field that pilots the center-of-mass of the quantum system. The internal wave function corresponds to the interpretation proposed by Edwin Schr"odinger.

  We present a method to cast the Schrodinger Equation into a hyper-geometric form which can be solved for the phase space wave function and its energy eigenvalues. We also analyze the behavior of these wave functions, which suggest a correlation between radial momentum and the upper limit of existence in charm-anticharm mesons.

  We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods. We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians. For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

A precise general law for the time evolution of states replacing the Schr"odinger equation is formulated within the so-called ETH-Approach to Quantum Mechanics.
