We introduce a new spinfoam vertex to be used in models of 4d quantum gravity based on SU(2) and SO(4) BF theory plus constraints. It can be seen as the conventional vertex of SU(2) BF theory, the 15j symbol, in a particular basis…
We consider the linear stability of Hill's vortex with respect to axisymmetric perturbations. Given that Hill's vortex is a solution of a free-boundary problem, this stability analysis is performed by applying methods of shape…
It is often thought that the super-sensitivity of a quantum state to an observable comes at the cost of a decreased sensitivity to other non-commuting observables. For example, a squeezed state squeezed in position quadrature is…
This paper is mainly concerned with the free boundary problem for an approximate model (for example, arising from the study of sonoluminescence) of a gas bubble of finite mass enclosed within a bounded incompressible viscous liquid,…

This survey reviews a collection of parallel phenomena between free boundary submanifolds in the Euclidean unit ball and closed submanifolds in the sphere, with particular emphasis on rigidity mechanisms, pinching thresholds, and canonical…
We consider a particle with a position-dependent mass, moving in a three-dimensional semi-infinite parallelepipedal or cylindrical channel under the influence of some hyperbolic potential. We show that the lack of uniformity in the…
In the minimal scenario of quantum correlations, two parties can choose from two observables with two possible outcomes each. Probabilities are specified by four marginals and four correlations. The resulting four-dimensional convex body of…
On the path towards quantum gravity, we find friction between temporal relations in quantum mechanics (QM) (where they are fixed and field-independent), and in general relativity (where they are field-dependent and dynamic). This paper aims…
Using analytic and numerical methods, we study a $2d$ Hamiltonian model of interacting particles carrying ferro-magnetically coupled continuous spins which are also locally coupled to their own velocities. This model has been characterised…
The formulation of the eigenvalue problem for the Schr\"odinger equation is studied, for the numerical solution a new approach is applied. With the usual exponentially rising free-state asymptotical behavior, and also with a first order…
We study the minimum time related to the quantum speed limit that characterizes the evolution of an open quantum system with the help of a simple model in the short and long time limits. We compare in particular the situation corresponding…
Motivated by the stellar wind ejected from the upper atmosphere (Corona) of a star, we explore a boundary problem of the two-species nonlinear relativistic Vlasov-Poisson systems in the 3D half space in the presence of a constant vertical…
In this contribution we discuss the role which incoherent boundary conditions can play in the study of phase transitions. This is a question of particular relevance for the analysis of disordered systems, and in particular of spin glasses.…
Recently, a proposal has appeared for the extraction of the 2-point function of linearised quantum gravity, within the spinfoam formalism. This relies on the use of a boundary state, which introduces a semi-classical flat geometry on the…
The role of topology in elementary quantum physics is discussed in detail. It is argued that attributes of classical spatial topology emerge from properties of state vectors with suitably smooth time evolution. Equivalently, they emerge…
We consider the possibility that photons of noncommutative QED can make bound states. Using the potential model, developed based on the constituent gluon picture of QCD glue-balls, arguments are presented in favor of existence of these…
We consider the Laplacian in a tubular neighbourhood of a hyperplane subjected to non-self-adjoint $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Robin boundary conditions. Its spectrum is found to be purely essential and real for constant boundary conditions.…
Within the theory of Siegert pseudostates, it is possible to accurately calculate bound states and resonances. The energy continuum is replaced by a discrete set of states. Many questions of interest in scattering theory can be addressed…
We consider the CFT of a free boson compactified on a circle, such that the compactification radius $R$ is an irrational multiple of $R_{selfdual}$. Apart from the standard Dirichlet and Neumann boundary states, Friedan suggested [1] that…
