We consider a model of a scalar field, with dispersion relation {\omega}(k), coupled to a random medium of two level atoms. We investigate the dynamics of states with at most one quanta of excitation in the system. In a high frequency…

Close to the Planck energy scale, the quantum nature of space-time reveals itself and all forces, including gravity, should be unified so that all interactions correspond to just one underlying symmetry. In the absence of a full quantum…

There often appear coherently oscillating scalar fields in particle physics motivated cosmological scenarios, which may have rich phenomenological consequences. Scalar fields should somehow interact with background thermal bath in order to…

Using the supersymmetry approach, we study spectral statistical properties of a two-dimensional quantum particle subject to a non-uniform magnetic field. We focus mainly on the problem of regularisation of the field theory. Our analysis…

We advocate that the dual picture of spacetime noncommutativity , i.e. the existence of a curved momentum space, could be a way out to solve some of the open conceptual problems in the field, such as the basis dependence of observables. In…
