After analyzing Dirac's equation, one can suggest that a well-known quantum-mechanical momentum operator is associated with relativistic momentum, rather than with non-relativistic one. Consideration of relativistic energy and momentum…

We investigate consequences of adding irrelevant (or less relevant) boundary operators to a (1+1)-dimensional field theory, using the Ising and the boundary sine-Gordon model as examples. In the integrable case, irrelevant perturbations are…
Ladder operators can be useful constructs, allowing for unique insight and intuition. In fact, they have played a special role in the development of quantum mechanics and field theory. Here, we introduce a novel type of ladder operators,…
The fundamental laws of physics can be derived from the requirement of invariance under suitable classes of transformations on the one hand, and from the need for a well-posed mathematical theory on the other hand. As a part of this…
