Negative kinetic energies can either be nonsense or convey a profound truth about the physical reality (e.g., antimatter in relativistic QED). In quantum mechanics, they are associated with some relevant manifestations (weak measurements, quantum backflow, Glauber quantum oscillator, etc.) and have been recently discovered in optics (optical backflow). Here, building on the analogy between optical waves and wave propagation of Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) wave fronts, new effects caused by the Hamilton’s principal function … read more
