We propose an ansatz for encoding the physics of nonlocal spacetime defects in the Green's functions for a scalar field theory defined on a causal set. This allows us to numerically study the effects of nonlocal spacetime defects on the…
X-ray absorption spectra calculated within an effective one-electron approach have to be broadened to account for the finite lifetime of the core hole. For Green's function based methods this can be achieved either by adding a small…
Two-point functions related to the pion weak decay constant f_\pi are calculated from the generating functional of chiral perturbation theory in the mean-field approximation and the heavy-baryon limit. The aim is to demonstrate that Lorentz…
A Green's function formalism is used to calculate the spectrum of localized modes of an impurity layer implanted within a ferromagnetic thin film. The equations of motion for the Green's functions are determined in the framework of the…
We observe that the energy and the enthalpy densities can be smeared by two fudge factors that are constrained by the contracted Bianchi identities. Depending on the analytic properties of the smearing functions the underlying cosmological…
We develop a light-front Hamiltonian formalism to study the real-time quantum evolution of a high-energy quark propagating through the Glasma phase of a heavy-ion collision. In this work, the quark Fock space is truncated to the $\ket{q}$…
We analyze the early stage of evolution of a universe with two scale factors proposed in [1] when matter is present. The scale factors describe two causally disconnected patches of the universe interacting trough a non-trivial Poisson…
In this paper we use infinitary Turing machines with tapes of length $\kappa$ and which run for time $\kappa$ as presented, e.g., by Koepke \& Seyfferth, to generalise the notion of type two computability to $2^{\kappa}$, where $\kappa$ is…
This paper is inspired by the work of J. S\'{a}ndor in 2006. In the paper, the authors establish some double inequalities involving the ratio $ \frac{\Gamma_{q}(x+1)}{ \Gamma_{q} \left( x+\frac{1}{2}\right)}$, where $\Gamma_{q}(x)$ is the…
We describe, in an algebraic way, the $\kappa$-deformed extended Snyder models, that depend on three parameters $\beta, \kappa$ and $\lambda$, which in a suitable algebra basis are described by the de Sitter algebras ${o}(1,N)$. The…
In this paper, we will analyze the short distance corrections to low energy scattering. They are produced because of an intrinsic extended structure of the background geometry of spacetime. It will be observed that the deformation produced…
A clock synchronization thought experiment is modeled by a diffeomorphism invariant "time delay" observable. In a sense, this observable probes the causal structure of the ambient Lorentzian spacetime. Thus, upon quantization, it is…
FLRW models filled with just dark energy are shown to have a finite past, since causal geodesics cannot be extended beyond a certain proper time. It is shown that curvature measured along causal geodesics becomes infinity on travelling to…
Starting from linear equations for the complex scalar field, the two- and three-point Green's functions are obtained in the infrared approximation. We show that the infrared singularity factorizes in the vertex function as in spinorial QED,…
The accuracy of the forward scattering approximation for two-point Green's functions of the Anderson localization model on the Cayley tree is studied. A relationship between the moments of the Green's function and the largest eigenvalue of…
Quantization of electrodynamics in curved space-time in the Lorenz gauge and with arbitrary gauge parameter makes it necessary to study Green functions of non-minimal operators with variable coefficients. Starting from the integral…
In mathematical physics, time-dependent Green's functions (GFs) are the solutions of differential equations of the first and second time derivatives. Habitually, the time-dependent GFs are Fourier transformed into the frequency space. Then,…

It is shown that loop divergences emerging in the Green functions in quantum field theory originate from correspondence of the Green functions to {\em unmeasurable} (and hence unphysical) quantities. This is because no physical quantity can…
Evidence that the fine structure constant, alpha, was different in an early epoch has recently been found in quasar (QSO) absorption spectra. An accurate laboratory measurement of alpha variation could help to distinguish between space and…
