Abstract:

Ghosts refer to non-physical entities (non-human, animal) that are believed by some people to be able to appear to the living. The question is that: if they exit, how are they traveling through ordinary Euclidean space? To model this scenario, we consider a classical system of mass m moving from a point A to another point B in position-deformed Heisenberg algebra with a generalized uncertainty principle. By means of pseudo-Hilbert space representations in Euclidean space and in its Fourier transform representation, we formulate the path integrals of this system in both representations. We show that in the Euclidean space representation, this system uses an invisible path to move from point A to point B with low energy. This makes this classical system travel much faster in this space than any ordinary system with very low kinetic energy. Such an observation is similar to an unphysical system that I was called by a ghost.
