Abstract

Let H = L 2(ℝ,dt) be the real Hilbert space of L 2-functions on ℝ and let Γ(H ) be the Boson Fock space over H, the complexification of H. Let be another complex Hilbert space. Given a one-parameter family of operators {L t} acting in Γ(H ) ⊗ , we consider the initial value problem of the form:

$$ \frac{{d{\Xi _t}}}{{dt}}\; = \;{L_t}\;\diamondsuit \;{\Xi _t},\;\;\;\;{\left. \Xi \right|_{t = 0}}\; = \;{\Xi _0}$$
(1)

where ◊ is the Wick product. The main purpose of this paper is to prove the unique existence of a solution to equation (1) in the sense of distributions. The main statement will be found in §5.
