We study creation and time evolution of particle number asymmetry with nonequilibrium quantum field theory. We introduce a model of a neutral scalar and a complex scalar and it has CP violating and particle number violating features.…
We use a one-dimensional model system to compare the predictions of two different 'yardsticks' to compute the position of a particle from its quantum field theoretical state. Based on the first yardstick (defined by the Newton-Wigner…
Classically, one could imagine a completely static space, thus without time. As is known, this picture is unconceivable in quantum physics due to vacuum fluctuations. The fundamental difference between the two frameworks is that classical…
Studying the behaviour of a quantum field in a classical, curved, spacetime is an extraordinary task which nobody is able to take on at present time. Independently by the fact that such problem is not likely to be solved soon, still we…
In massless scalar field cosmology, imposing the universe's physical volume as fundamentally discrete resolves the big bang singularity via a big bounce. We use quantum field theory on curved background to numerically track the number of…
Inspired by the universality of computation, we advocate for a principle of spacetime complexity, where gravity arises as a consequence of spacetime optimizing the computational cost of its own quantum dynamics. This principle is explicitly…
We have constructed a Heisenberg-type algebra generated by the Hamiltonian, the step operators and an auxiliar operator. This algebra describes quantum systems having eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian depending on the eigenvalues of the two…
We propose a new quantum approach for describing a system of $n$ interacting particles with variable mass connected by an unknown field with variable form ($n$-VMVF systems). Instead of assuming any particular nature for variation of the…
The Sauter-Schwinger process of electron-positron pair creation from vacuum, driven by a sequence of time-dependent electric-field pulses, is studied in the framework of quantum-field theoretical approach. As demonstrated by our numerical…
This paper develops a geometric model for coupled two-state quantum systems (qubits), which is formulated using geometric (aka Clifford) algebra. It begins by showing how Euclidean spinors can be interpreted as entities in the geometric…
Any two infinite-dimensional (separable) Hilbert spaces are unitarily isomorphic. The sets of all their self-adjoint operators are also therefore unitarily equivalent. Thus if all self-adjoint operators can be observed, and if there is no…
Based on a number of experimentally verified physical observations, it is argued that the standard principles of quantum mechanics should be applied to the Universe as a whole. Thus, a paradigm is proposed in which the entire Universe is…
Wave guides for classical electromagnetic fields can realize the quantum evolution of the wave function for a system of qubits. Phase shifts, switches and beam splits allow for the construction of arbitrary quantum gates. They can act at…
We describe both quantum particles and classical particles in terms of a classical statistical ensemble, characterized by a probability distribution in phase space. By use of a wave function in phase space both can be treated in the same…
We describe how a model of effective interactions between quantum fluctuations under certain assumptions can be constructed in a way so that the large-scale limit gives an effective theory that matches general relativity in vacuum regions.…
We employ an algebraic procedure based on quantum mechanics to propose a `quantum number theory' (QNT) as a possible extension of the `classical number theory'. We built our QNT by defining pure quantum number operators ($q$-numbers) of a…
Experimental implementations of quantum computer architectures are now being investigated in many different physical settings. The full set of requirements that must be met to make quantum computing a reality in the laboratory [1] is…
Starting from a given factorizing S-matrix $S$ in two space-time dimensions, we review a novel strategy to rigorously construct quantum field theories describing particles whose interaction is governed by $S$. The construction procedure is…
Two important problems in studying the quantum black hole, namely the construction of the Hilbert space and the definition of the time evolution operator on such Hilbert space, are discussed using the de Sitter background field method for…
In order to resolve the measurement problem of Quantum Mechanics, non-unitary time evolution has been derived from the unitarity of standard quantum formalism. New wave functions of free and non-free quantum systems follow from Schroedinger…
