We present a new set of massless Poincar\'e group operators Hermitian with respect to the $ 1 / r $ inner product space, which have quasi-plane wave energy-momentum eigenfunctions having velocity $ c $ along their axis of propagation. These…

We second quantize the Fermi Lagrangian in the Lorenz gauge to obtain a covariant theory of photon quantum mechanics. Number density is real so it is interpreted as position probability density. The Hilbert space is the vector space of…

Using a quantum field theoretic description of the photon it is shown that, as intuitively expected but not before theoretically proven, the vector potential of a photon has a likely amplitude associated with a discrete frequency and…

For relativistic closed systems, an operator is explained which has as stationary eigenvalues the squares of the total cms energies, while the wave function has only half as many components as the corresponding Dirac wave function. The…

A new kind of symmetry called partial PT symmetry has been considered for non-hermitian quadratic boson operators obtained from a bi-orthogonal set of vectors in C2. The symmetry behaviour has been understood in Fock space considered as a…

We generalized a class of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians which introduced previously by us in such a way in which every member in the class is non-\textit{PT}-symmetric. For every member of the class, the ground state is a constant with zero…
