Optical simulation of quantum mechanics on the Möbius strip, Klein’s bottle and other manifolds, and Talbot effect
We analyse the evolution of the wavefunction of a quantum particle propagating on several compact manifolds, including the Klein bottle, Möbius strip and projective plane. We find analytically the stationary states and the energy spectrum and show that the wavefunction exhibits perfect revivals. Usi...
