We consider the semiclassical theory in a joint phase space of spin and orbital degrees of freedom. The method is developed from the path integrals using the spin-coherent-state representation, and yields the trace formula for the density…
We present an improved formulation of 4-dimensional Lorentzian spinfoam quantum gravity with cosmological constant. The construction of spinfoam amplitudes uses the state-integral model of PSL(2,$\mathbb{C}$) Chern-Simons theory and the…
Asymptotic Safety implies that observables including scattering amplitudes remain finite at the highest energy scales. Traditionally, this feature is connected to an interacting fixed point of the Wilsonian renormalization group that…
I review the arguments most often raised against a fundamental coupling of classical spacetime to quantum matter. I show that an experiment by Page and Geilker does not exclude such a semiclassical theory but mandates an inclusion of an…
We consider the quantum kinetic-theory description for interacting massive spin-half fermions using the Wigner function formalism. We derive a general kinetic theory description assuming that the spin effects appear at the classical and…

We discuss the semi-classical gravitational wave corrections to Gauss's law, and obtain an explicit solution for the electromagnetic potential. The Gravitational Wave perturbs the Coulomb potential with a function which propagates to the…
We study spin fluctuations in the spiral phase of the two-dimensional Hubbard model at low doping on the basis of the spin-particle-hole coherent-state path integral. In the strong correlation limit, we obtain an analytical expression of…

A large set of complex path solutions for the Hartle Hawking semi-classical wave function are found for an inflationary universe in the "slow roll" regime. The implication of these for the semi-classical evolution of the universe is also…

We use spin-coherent states as a time-dependent variational ansatz for a semiclassical description of a large family of Heisenberg models. In addition to common approaches we also evaluate the square variance of the Hamiltonian in terms of…
The fermion propagator is derived in detail from the model of fermion coupled to loop quantum gravity. As an ingredient of the propagator, the vacuum state is defined as the ground state of some effective fermion Hamiltonian under the…
Semiclassical behavior of Stark resonances is studied. The complex distortion outside a cone is introduced to study resonances in any energy region for the Stark Hamiltonians with non-globally analytic potentials. The non-trapping resolvent…
The Large Charge sector of Conformal Field Theory (CFT) can generically be described through a semiclassical expansion around a superfluid background. In this work, focussing on $U(1)$ invariant Wilson-Fisher fixed points, we study the…
A semiclassical theory of dissipative Henon-Heiles system is proposed. Based on $\hbar$-scaling of an equation for evolution of Wigner quasiprobability distribution function in presence of dissipation and thermal diffusion, we derive a…
Despite a long history of Nernst effect in superconductors, a satisfactory theory on its amplitude in vortex liquid phase is still absent. The central quantity of vortex Nernst signals is the entropy $s_{\phi}$ carried by each vortex. Here…
When traditional linearised theory is used to study gravity-capillary waves produced by flow past an obstruction, the geometry of the object is assumed to be small in one or several of its dimensions. In order to preserve the nonlinear…

We investigate the graviton propagator in the type IIB supergravity background which is dual to 4 dimensional noncommutative gauge theory. We assume that the boundary is located not at the infinity but at the noncommutative scale where the…
