We examine the recent statement by A. Dolgov and I. Novikov that superluminal propagation of light, which is induced by the quantum corrections to the photon propagation in gravitational field, permits non-causal signal propagation. For…
In this paper, we perform the polar analysis of the spinorial fields, starting from the regular cases and up to the singular cases: we will give for the first time the polar form of the spinorial field equations for the singular cases…
We discuss the multipolar expansion of the electromagnetic field with an emphasis on the radiated field. We investigate if the employment of Jefimenko's equations brings a new insight into the calculation of the radiation field. We show…
The existence theory for solutions of the linearized field equations for causal variational principles is developed. We begin by studying the Cauchy problem locally in lens-shaped regions, defined as subsets of space-time which admit…
Models of particle propagation in causal set theory are investigated through simulations. For the swerves model the simulations are shown to agree with the expected continuum diffusion behaviour. Given the limitations on the simulated…
A scalar field with a modified dispersion relation may seed, under certain conditions, the primordial perturbations during a decelerated expansion. In this note we examine whether and how these perturbations can be responsible for the…
The goal of this paper is to define fermionic fields on causal set. This is done by the use of holonomies to define vierbines, and then defining spinor fields by taking advantage of the leftover degrees of freedom of holonomies plus…

In this paper, we consider the theory of ELKO written in their polar form, in which the spinorial components are converted into products of a real module times a complex unitary phase while the covariance under spin transformations is still…
We present an accurate, stable and efficient solution to the Lippmann-Schwinger equation for electromagnetic scattering in two dimensions. The method is well suited for multiple scattering problems and may be applied to problems with…
We review a technique for solving a class of classical linear partial differential systems of relevance to physics in Minkowski spacetime. All the equations are amenable to analysis in terms of complex solutions in the kernel of the scalar…
I summarize the theoretical predictions for the spin-dependent nucleon polarizabilities based on chiral effective field theory approaches.
It is now well-known that vacuum polarisation in QED can lead to superluminal low-frequency phase velocities for photons propagating in curved spacetimes. In a series of papers, we have shown that this quantum phenomenon is dispersive and…
In this paper we show that the statement in Ahluwalia, Lee, and Schritt (2011) that the existence of elko spinor fields implies in an axis of locality is equivocated. The anticommutator {{\Lambda}(x,t),{\Pi}(x,t} is strictly local.
We study Dirac field equations coupled to electrodynamics with metric and torsion fields: we discuss how special spinorial solutions are incompatible with torsion; eventually these results will be used to sketch a discussion on the problem…
When utilizing a cluster decomposible relativistic scattering formalism, it is most convenient that the covariant field equations take on a linear form with respect to the energy and momentum dispersion on the fields in the manner given by…
