| Sumario: | In the search of a quantum momentum operator with discrete spectrum, we obtain some properties of the discrete momentum operator for nonequally spaced spectrum. We find the inverse operator. We use the matrix representation of these operators, and we find that there is one more eigenvalue and eigenfunction than the dimension of the matrix. We apply the results to obtain the discrete adjoint of the momentum operator. We conclude that we can have discrete operators which can be self-adjoint and that it is possible to define a self-adjoint extension of the corresponding Hilbert space. These results help us understand the quantum time operator. |
