A new formulation of relativistic quantum mechanics is proposed in the framework of the rest-frame instant form of dynamics with its instantaneous Wigner 3-spaces and with its description of the particle world-lines by means of derived…
We compare the classification as entangled or separable of Bell diagonal bipartite qudits with positive partial transposition (PPT) and their properties for different dimensions. For dimension $d \geq 3$, a form of entanglement exists that…
Quantum discord witnesses the nonclassicality of quantum states even when there is no entanglement in these quantum states. This type of quantum correlation also has some interesting and significant applications in quantum information…
We derive general results for the mass shift of bound states with angular momentum l >= 1 in a finite periodic volume. Our results have direct applications to lattice simulations of hadronic molecules as well as atomic nuclei. While the…
We report new aspects of the recent theoretical progress in heavy quarkonium physics. (1) Contrary to wide beliefs, the gross structure of the bottomonium spectrum is described well by the non-relativistic boundstate theory based on…
For theories of relativistic matter fields there exist two possible definitions of the stress-energy tensor, one defined by a variation of the action with the coframes at fixed connection, and the other at fixed torsion. These two…
In nonrelativistic QED the charge of an electron equals its bare value, whereas the self-energy and the mass have to be renormalized. In our contribution we study perturbative mass renormalization, including second order in the fine…
We derive a relation between four-fermion QED Green functions of different covariant gauges which defines the gauge dependence completely. We use the derived gauge dependence to check the gauge invariance of atom-like bound state…
We discuss recent results concerning the ground state of non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics as a function of a magnetic coupling constant or the fine structure constant, obtained by the authors in [12,13,14].
We prove existence of a ground state and resonances in the standard model of the non-relativistic quantum electro-dynamics (QED). To this end we introduce a new canonical transformation of QED Hamiltonians and use the spectral…
In the context of the noncommutative QED we consider few phenomena which reflect the noncommutativity. In all of them the new interactions in the Feynmann diagrams that are responsible for the deviation from the standard QED results. These…
Expressions for variables of the center of mass and relative motions for two-body system with different and equal masses in three-dimensional spaces of constant curvature are introduced in the terms of biquaternions. The problem of the…
The non-relativistic version of the multi-temporal quantization scheme of relativistic particles in a family of non-inertial frames (see hep-th/0502194) is defined. At the classical level the description of a family of non-rigid…
A critical look is taken at the calculation of the Casimir effect. The boundary conditions play an important role and should be imposed in a physical way. An acceptable result for the vacuum energy is only obtained when different…
The work described in this paper is the first step toward a relativistic three-quark bound-state calculation using a Hamiltonian consistent with the Wigner-Bargmann theorem and macroscopic locality. We give an explicit demonstration that we…
We first discuss Uraltsev's and other sum rules constraining the $B \to D^{**}(L=1)$ weak transitions in the infinite mass limit, and compare them with dynamical approaches in the same limit. After recalling these well established facts, we…
Within a phenomenological quasiparticle model, the quark mass and temperature dependence of the QCD equation of state is discussed and compared with lattice QCD results. Different approximations for the quasiparticle dispersion relations…
A relativistic quantum mechanics is studied for bound hadronic systems in the framework of the Point Form Relativistic Hamiltonian Dynamics. Negative energy states are introduced taking into account the restrictions imposed by a correct…
The well known relation of Einstein relativistic energy for a free particle is extended to cover the total relativistic energy of a bound particle by calculating the relativistic potential energy. A non dissipative harmonic oscillator…
Confined states of an electron-positron pair in the spherical quantum dot (QD) are theoretically investigated in three size-quantization (SQ) regimes: strong, weak and intermediate. In the strong SQ regime, analytical expressions for the…
