The Hamiltonian of an atom with $N$ electrons and a fixed nucleus of infinite mass between two parallel planes is considered in the limit when the distance $a$ between the planes tends to zero. We show that this Hamiltonian converges in the…

The ambiguity involved in the definition of effective-mass Hamiltonians for nonrelativistic models is resolved using the Dirac equation. The multistep approximation is extended for relativistic cases allowing the treatment of arbitrary…

We investigate expansive solutions of the $N$-body problem in $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d\ge2$) driven by homogeneous Newtonian potentials of degree $-\alpha$. We establish the existence of half-entire expansive motions with prescribed initial…

We consider the N-body problem in (1+1) dimensional lineal gravity. For 2 point masses (N=2) we obtain an exact solution for the relativistic motion. In the equal mass case we obtain an explicit expression for their proper separation as a…

The spinless relativistic Coulomb problem is the bound-state problem for the spinless Salpeter equation (a standard approximation to the Bethe--Salpeter formalism as well as the most simple generalization of the nonrelativistic…

We discuss a method to transform the covariant Fokker action into an implicit two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian for the electromagnetic two-body problem with arbitrary masses. This dynamical system appeared 100 years ago and it was…

It has been argued that despite remarkable success, existing random matrix theories are not adequate to describe disordered conductors in the metallic regime, due to the presence of certain two-body interactions in the effective Hamiltonian…

Free classical particles have well-defined momentum and position, while free quantum particles have well-defined momentum but a position fully delocalized over the sample volume. We develop a many-body formalism based on wave-packet…

We employ a port-Hamiltonian approach to model nonlinear rigid multibody systems subject to both position and velocity constraints. Our formulation accommodates Cartesian and redundant coordinates, respectively, and captures kinematic as…

We analyze the fully relativistic, field-theoretical treatment of the scalar Coulomb problem. We work in a truncated Hilbert-Fock space containing the two-constituent states and the two-constituent-and-one-massless-exchange-particle states.…

The relativistic 2-body problem, much like the non-relativistic one, is reduced to describing the motion of an effective particle in an external field. The concept of a relativistic reduced mass and effective particle energy introduced some…

We review analyses of open quantum systems. We show how non-Hermiticity arises in an open quantum system with an infinite environment, focusing on the one-body problem. One of the reasons for taking the present approach is that we can solve…

We propose a relativistic one-parameter Hermitian theory for the Coulomb problem with an electric charge greater than 137. In the non-relativistic limit, the theory becomes identical to the Schr\"odinger-Coulomb problem for all Z. Moreover,…

We extend a recent billiard model of the nuclear N-body Hamiltonian to consider a finite two-body interaction. This permits a treatment of the Hamiltonian by a mean field theory, and also allows the possibility to model reactions between…

Several proposals to deal with the dynamics of general relativity involve gauge fixings or the introduction matter fields in terms of which the theory is deparameterized. The resulting theories have true Hamiltonians for their evolution…
