Recently, there have been studies of parametric resonance decay of oscillating real homogeneous cosmological scalar fields, in both the narrow-band and broad-band case, primarily within the context of inflaton decay and (p)reheating.…
We study the hybrid quantization of the linearly polarized Gowdy $T^3$ model with a massless scalar field with the same symmetries as the metric. For simplicity, we quantize its restriction to the model with local rotational symmetry. Using…

In this paper, we show how to use the framework of mod-Gaussian convergence in order to study the fluctuations of certain models of random graphs, of random permutations and of random integer partitions. We prove that, in these three…
We investigate the application of deformation quantization to the system of a free particle evolving within a universe described by a Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) geometry. This approach allows us to analyze the dynamics of…
Retrieval of classical behaviour in quantum cosmology is usually discussed in the framework of minisuperspace models in the presence of scalar fields together with the inhomogeneous modes either of the gravitational or of the scalar fields.…

We present a privileged Fock quantization of a massive Dirac field in a closed Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmology, partially selected by the criteria of invariance of the vacuum under the symmetries of the field equations, and unitary…
Quantum group Fourier transform methods are applied to the study of processes on noncommutative Minkowski spacetime $[x^i,t]=\imath\lambda x^i$. A natural wave equation is derived and the associated phenomena of {\it in vacuo} dispersion…
Spatially averaged inhomogeneous cosmologies in classical general relativity can be written in the form of effective Friedmann equations with sources that include backreaction terms. In this paper we propose to describe these backreaction…

Paley-Wiener type theorems describe the image of a given space of functions, often compactly supported functions, under an integral transform, usually a Fourier transform on a group or homogeneous space. Several authors have studied…
A set of semi-analytical techniques based on Fourier analysis is used to solve wave scattering problems in variously shaped waveguides with varying normal admittance boundary conditions. Key components are newly developed conformal mapping…
We introduce a fast Fourier spectral method for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with non-cutoff collision kernels. Such kernels contain non-integrable singularity in the deviation angle which arise in a wide range of…
The famous Fourier theorem states that, under some restrictions, any periodic function (or real world signal) can be obtained as a sum of sinusoids, and hence, a technique exists for decomposing a signal into its sinusoidal components. From…
Quantum field theory in curved spacetimes suffers in general from an infinite ambiguity in the choice of Fock representation and associated vacuum. In cosmological backgrounds, the requirement of a unitary implementation of the field…
Generalized Fourier transformation between the position and the momentum representation of a quantum state is constructed in a coordinate independent way. The only ingredient of this construction is the symplectic (canonical) geometry of…
