In particular, as a physically interesting application, we present a method to depict, in a semi-classical approximation, a test particle in a (non commutative) quantum spacetime where, thanks to Planckian effects, the initial classical singularity disappears and, as a consequnce, a ground state with negative energy emerges.

Abstract
In this paper we adapt the mathematical machinery presented in Albeverio et al. (Nanosystem 8(2), 153, 2017) to get, by means of the Laplace-Beltrami operator, the discrete spectrum of the Hamiltonian of the Schrödinger operator perturbed by an attractive 3D delta interaction in a Friedmann flat universe. In particular, as a consequence of the treatment in Albeverio et al. (Nanosystem 8(2), 153, 2017) suitable for a Minkowski spacetime, the discrete spectrum consisting only of the ground state and the first excited state in the above-mentioned cosmic framework can be regained. Thus, the coupling constant λ must be chosen as a function of the cosmic comoving time t as λ/a²(t), with λ being the one of the Hamiltonian studied in the aforementioned article. In this way we can introduce a time dependent delta interaction which is relevant in a primordial universe, where a(t) → 0 and becomes negligible at late times, with a(t) >> 1. We investigate, with such a model, quantum effects provided by point interactions in a strong gravitational regime near the big bang. In particular, as a physically interesting application, we present a method to depict, in a semi-classical approximation, a test particle in a (non commutative) quantum spacetime where, thanks to Planckian effects, the initial classical singularity disappears and, as a consequnce, a ground state with negative energy emerges. Conversely, in a scenario where the scale factor a(t) follows the classical trajectory, this ground state is unstable and thus must be physically ruled out.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
