Covariant dynamics on the momentum space
Abstract
A geometrical interpretation of Schr\"odinger's kinetic and potential energy operators is proposed, allowing for a covariant momentum space formulation of the dynamics that is relevant for the theories with the deformation of the momentum space structure. Some specific examples are discussed in the context of flat space deformations and the Euclidean Snyder (spherical momentum space) model. In this formulation the dynamics for the deformations of the flat momentum space becomes trivial, while different versions of the Snyder model turn out to be dynamically equivalent.
