We provide an existence result for a Schr\"odinger-Poisson system in gradient form, set in the whole plane, in the case of zero mass. Since the setting is limiting for the Sobolev embedding, we admit nonlinearities with subcritical or…
In this and companion papers, we show that quantum field theories with gauge symmetries permit a broader class of classical dynamics than typically assumed. In this article, we show that the quantization of electromagnetism permits the…
If there exists a formulation of quantum mechanics which does not refer to a background classical spacetime manifold, it then follows as a consequence, (upon making one plausible assumption), that a quantum description of gravity should be…
A gauge theory with an underlying SU_q(2) quantum group symmetry is introduced, and its properties examined. With suitable assumptions, this model is found to have many similarities with the usual SU(2)\times U(1) Standard Model,…

In this paper the one-dimensional nonparaxial nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation is considered. This was proposed as an alternative to the classical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in those situations where the assumption of paraxiality may…
This paper is motivated by a gauged Schr\"odinger equation in dimension 2 including the so-called Chern-Simons term. The study of radial stationary states leads to the nonlocal problem: $$ - \Delta u(x) + \left(\omega +…
We point out that a field \phi charged under a global U(1) symmetry generally allows for a starred localized extension with the transformation rule, \phi\to U_L\star\phi\star U_R^{-1}. This results in a double gauging of the global U(1)…

Complex Wadati-type potentials of the form $V(x)=-w^2(x) + iw_x(x)$, where $w(x)$ is a real-valued function, are known to possess a number of intriguing features, unusual for generic non-Hermitian potentials. In the present work, we…
