The Schr\"odinger equation in the presence of an external electromagnetic field is an important problem in computational quantum mechanics. It also provides a nice example of a differential equation whose flow can be split with benefit into…
We describe an effective theory of a scalar field, motivated by some features expected in the low energy theory of gluodynamics in 3+1 dimensions. The theory describes two propagating massless particles in a certain limit, which we identify…
Recently a new formulation of quantum mechanics has been introduced, based on signed classical field-less particles interacting with an external field by means of only creation and annihilation events. In this paper, we extend this novel…
The electron-positron pair production due to the dynamical Schwinger process in a slowly oscillating strong electric field is enhanced by the superposition of a rapidly oscillating weaker electric field. A systematic account of the…
In previous work on Schwinger pair creation in purely time-dependent fields, it was shown how to construct ``solitonic'' electric fields that do not create scalar pairs with an arbitrary fixed momentum. We show that this construction can be…

The whole picture of gauge theory is described by manifolds, while the field equation provides only a part (a section) of the manifold. Just as a three-dimensional object is reconstructed from two planar images, a monopole is constructed by…
We derive analytical $\chi\ll1$ approximations for spin-dependent quantum radiation reaction for locally constant and locally monochromatic fields. We show how to factor out fast spin oscillations and obtain the degree of polarization in…
In this work we consider two complex scalar fields distinguished by their masses coupled to constant background electric and magnetic fields in the $(3+1)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime and subsequently investigate a few measures…
It is known that time-dependent vacuum expectation value of the background field may lead to abundant particle production in the early Universe. In supersymmetric theories bosons and fermions are produced in a correlated manner that depends…
We present the manifestly covariant Lagrangian of a massless polarized particle, that implies all dynamic and algebraic equations as the conditions of extreme of this variational problem. The model allows for minimal interaction with a…
We prove that Sobolev norms of solutions to time dependent Schr\"odinger equations for $d$-dimensional $N$-partcles interacting via time dependent two body potentials are bounded in time if certain Lebesgue norms of the potentials are small…
Plasmas are usually described using classical equations. While this is often a good approximation, where are situations when a quantum description is motivated. In this paper we will include several quantum effects, ranging from particle…

We consider the ADM splitting of the Einstein-Hilbert action in five dimensions in the presence of matter that can be either a "point particle", or a set of scalar fields. The Hamiltonian, being a linear superposition of constraints, is…
A previous derivation of the single-particle Schr\"odinger equation from statistical assumptions is generalized to an arbitrary number $N$ of particles moving in three-dimensional space. Spin and gauge fields are also taken into account. It…
We experimentally study cosmological particle production in a two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate, whose density excitations map to an analog cosmology. The expansion of spacetime is realized with tunable interactions. The particle…
We apply the principles discussed in earlier papers to the construction of discrete time quantum field theories. We use the Schwinger action principle to find the discrete time free field commutators for scalar fields, which allows us to…
Pair creation in a uniform classical electromagnetic field (Schwinger mechanism) is studied focusing on the time evolution of the distribution of created particles. The time evolution of the distribution in time-dependent fields is also…
