The product of a non-commutative matrix spectral triple with a simple two-dimensional internal space is considered. This is interpreted as a non-commutative spacetime that contains one charged Dirac fermion and its antiparticle. The inner…

We propose a mechanism for the enhancement of vacuum fluctuations by means of a classical field. The basic idea is that if an observable quantity depends quadratically upon a quantum field, such as the electric field, then the application…

We study the quantum version of a simplified model of optimization problems, where quantum fluctuations are introduced by a transverse field acting on the qubits. We find a complex low-energy spectrum of the quantum Hamiltonian,…
The Generalized Elastic Model is a linear stochastic model which accounts for the behaviour of many physical systems in nature, ranging from polymeric chains to single-file systems. If an external perturbation is exerted \emph{only} on a…

We derive new general expressions for the fluctuating electromagnetic field outside a homogeneous material surface. The analysis is based on general results from the thermodynamics of irreversible processes, and requires no consideration of…
We examine the weak-field approximation of locally Galilean invariant gravitational theories with general covariance in a $(4+1)$-dimensional Galilean framework. The additional degrees of freedom allow us to obtain Poisson, diffusion, and…
Tensor models are more-index generalizations of the so-called matrix models, and provide models of quantum gravity with the idea that spaces and general relativity are emergent phenomena. In this paper, a renormalization procedure for the…
