Recently, it has been observed that a quantum field theory need not be Hermitian to have a real, positive spectrum. What seems to be required is symmetry under combined parity and time-reversal transformations. This idea is extended to…

It has been demonstrated that, in (1+1) spacetime dimensions, massless fields can be used for information transmission even between parties that are time-like rather than light-like separated - and even without the receiver obtaining any…

The vacuum state in quantum field theory is known to exhibit an important number of fundamental physical features. In this work we explore the possibility that this state could also present a non-trivial space-time structure on large…

In a recent paper (Eur. Phys. J. C 80: 68 (2020).), a definition of oscillating neutrino states in quantum field theory was proposed. We show that such definition can be derived in a particular case of the Blasone-Vitiello approach, when…
