The Quantum Mellin transform
J. Twamley, G. J. Milburn
abstract: We uncover a new type of unitary operation for quantum mechanics on the
half-line which yields a transformation to ``Hyperbolic phase space''. We show
that this new unitary change of basis from the position x on the half line to
the Hyperbolic momentum $p_\eta$, transforms the wavefunction via a Mellin
transform on to the critial line $s=1/2-ip_\eta$. We utilise this new transform
to find quantum wavefunctions whose Hyperbolic momentum representation
approximate a class of higher transcendental functions, and in particular,
approximate the Riemann Zeta function. We finally give possible physical
realisations to perform an indirect measurement of the Hyperbolic momentum of a
quantum system on the half-line.
