Abstract

The SO q (N)-invariant Schrödinger equation for the free particle is formulated in polar coordinates as a partial differential equation in noncommutative geometry. For each value of the total angular momentum, a Hilbert space of radial functions is constructed as the space of normalizable functions respective to the q-integral. The spectrum of the Hamiltonian is found to be discrete.
