We derive the path integral action for a particle moving in three dimensional fuzzy space. From this we extract the classical equations of motion. These equations have rather surprising and unconventional features: They predict a cut-off in…
We develop the canonical formalism for a system of $N$ bodies in lineal gravity and obtain exact solutions to the equations of motion for N=2. The determining equation of the Hamiltonian is derived in the form of a transcendental equation,…

It is shown that dynamical equations for quantum tomograms retain the normalization conditions of their solutions during evolution only if the solutions satisfy a set of special conditions. These conditions are found explicitly. On the…
The usual Heisenberg uncertainty relation for position and momentum may be replaced by an exact equality, for suitably chosen measures of position and momentum uncertainty. This "exact" uncertainty relation is valid for_all_ pure states,…
Quantum coherence, rooted in the superposition principle of quantum mechanics, is a crucial quantum resource. Various measures, operational interpretations, and generalizations of quantum coherence have been proposed. In recent years, its…
We suggest a new approach for describing quantum dissipation in a small systems for which the system-plus-reservoir approach is not relevant. We first analyze the fact that equilibrium thermodynamics may reveal the existence of an…
