The time operator, an operator which satisfies the canonical commutation relation with the Hamiltonian, is investigated, on the basis of a certain algebraic relation for a pair of operators T and H, where T is symmetric and H self-adjoint. This relation is equivalent to the Weyl relation, in the case of self-adjoint T, and is satisfied by the Aharonov–Bohm time operator T0 and the free Hamiltonian H0 for the one-dimensional free-particle system. In order to see the qualitative properties of T0, the operators T and H satisfying this algebraic relation are examined. In particular, it is shown that the standard deviation of T is directly connected to the survival probability, and H is absolutely continuous. Hence, it is concluded that the existence of the operator T implies the existence of scattering states. It is also shown that the minimum uncertainty states do not exist. Other examples of these operators T and H, than the one-dimensional free-particle system, are demonstrated.
