We propose a new way to perform path integrals in quantum mechanics by using a quantum version of Hamilton-Jacobi theory. In classical mechanics, Hamilton-Jacobi theory is a powerful formalism, however, its utility is not explored in…

The symplectic spectral metric on the set of Lagrangian submanifolds or Hamiltonian maps can be used to define a completion of these spaces. For an element of such a completion, we define its $\gamma$-support. We also define the notion of…

It is natural to investigate if the quantization of an integrable or superintegrable classical Hamiltonian systems is still integrable or superintegrable. We study here this problem in the case of natural Hamiltonians with constants of…

We address the properties of continuous-time quantum walks with Hamiltonians of the form $\mathcal{H}= L + \lambda L^2$, being $L$ the Laplacian matrix of the underlying graph and being the perturbation $\lambda L^2$ motivated by its…

Since its first appearance in 1971, Gutzwiller's trace formula has been extended to systems with continuous symmetries, in which not all periodic orbits are isolated. In order to avoid the divergences occurring in connection with symmetry…

We give a general derivation of the gravitational hamiltonian starting from the Einstein-Hilbert action, keeping track of all surface terms. The surface term that arises in the hamiltonian can be taken as the definition of the `total…

We study spectral properties of Hamiltonians $\rH_{X,\gB,q}$ with $\delta'$-point interactions on a discrete set $X={x_k}_{k=1}^\infty\subset\R_+$. %at the centers $x_n$ on the positive half line in terms of energy forms. Using the form…

We consider a classical Hamiltonian $H$ on $\mathbb{R}^{2d}$, invariant by a Lie group of symmetry $G$, whose Weyl quantization $\hat{H}$ is a selfadjoint operator on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$. If $\chi$ is an irreducible character of $G$, we…
