One classical theory, as determined by an equation of motion or set of classical trajectories, can correspond to many unitarily {\em in}equivalent quantum theories upon canonical quantization. This arises from a remarkable ambiguity, not…
Geometric quantization is an attempt at using the differential-geometric ingredients of classical phase spaces regarded as symplectic manifolds in order to define a corresponding quantum theory. Generally, the process of geometric…
The Hamiltonian treatment of constrained systems in $G\ddot{u}ler's$ formalism leads us to the total differential equations in many variables. These equations are integrable if the corresponding system of partial differential equations is a…
For linear bose field theories, I show that if a classical Hamiltonian function is strictly positive, then there is a canonical transformation making the evolution orthogonal. This structure theorem is used to analyze the corresponding…
Although classical mechanics and quantum mechanics are separate disciplines, we live in a world where Planck's constant \hbar>0, meaning that the classical and quantum world views must actually {\it coexist}. Traditionally, canonical…
We consider the Hamiltonian constraint formulation of classical field theories, which treats spacetime and the space of fields symmetrically, and utilizes the concept of momentum multivector. The gauge field is introduced to compensate for…
We consider a quantum system of non-interacting fermions at temperature T, in the framework of linear response theory. We show that semiclassical theory is an appropriate framework to describe some of their thermodynamic properties, in…
We describe the elements of a novel structural approach to classical field theory, inspired by recent developments in perturbative algebraic quantum field theory. This approach is local and focuses mainly on the observables over field…
Deterministic dynamical models are discussed which can be described in quantum mechanical terms. In particular, a local quantum field theory is presented which is a supersymmetric classical model. -- The Hilbert space approach of Koopman…
I consider the formulation of hybrid cosmological models that consists of a classical gravitational field interacting with a quantized massive scalar field in the formalism of ensembles on configuration space. This is a viable approach that…
An inconsistency of quantum field theory, regarding the signs of vacuum energy and vacuum pressure of elementary fields versus non-elementary fields (like e.g. phonon fields), is pointed out. An improved law for the canonical quantization…
The canonical formalism in classical theory of QCD is constructed on a space-like hypersurface. The Poisson bracket on the space-like hypersurface is defined and it plays an important role to describe every algebraic relation in the…
In $n$-dimensional classical field theory one studies maps from $n$-dimensional manifolds in such a way that classical mechanics is recovered for $n=1$. In previous papers we have shown that the standard polysymplectic framework in which…
Jet formalism provides the adequate mathematical formulation of classical field theory, reviewed in hep-th/0612182v1. A formulation of QFT compatible with this classical one is discussed. We are based on the fact that an algebra of…
It is shown how to extend the formal variational calculus in order to incorporate integrals of divergences into it. Such a generalization permits to study nontrivial boundary problems in field theory on the base of canonical formalism.
The Hamiltonian counterpart of classical Lagrangian field theory is covariant Hamiltonian field theory where momenta correspond to derivatives of fields with respect to all world coordinates. In particular, classical Lagrangian and…
We provide an introduction to deformation quantisation and discuss the application of the formalism in solving the evolution problem for many-body systems in terms of semiclassical expansion. In any fixed order of expansion over the…

The scheme of using the Chern-Simons action to regularize the gravitational Hamiltonian constraint is extended to including the Lorentzian term in the $k=0$ cosmological model. The Euclidean term and the Lorenzian term are thus regularized…
