Non-perturbative solutions to the quantum-field theory is a topic of current and broad interest, especially for the heavy ion and laser physics communities, since they investigate particle production in the presence of strong external…
We show that the light-front vaccum is not trivial, and the Fock space for positive energy quanta solutions is not complete. As an example of this non triviality we have calculated the electromagnetic current for scalar bosons in the…
We propose an efficient decomposition scheme for a quantum receiver that attains the Helstrom bound in the low-photon regime for discriminating binary coherent states. Our method, which avoids feedback as used in Dolinar's case, breaks down…
The bootstrap method aims to solve problems by imposing constraints on the space of physical observables, which often follow from physical assumptions such as positivity and symmetry. Here, we employ a bootstrap approach to study…
The series of articles [Ann. Phys. 345, 73 (2014) and 356, 57 (2015)] devoted to excited-state quantum phase transitions (ESQPTs) in systems with $f=2$ degrees of freedom is continued by studying the interacting boson model of nuclear…

The light-front (LF) canonical quantization of quantum chromodynamics in covariant gauge is discussed. The Dirac procedure is used to eliminate the constraints in the gauge-fixed front form theory quantum action and to construct the LF…
It is well-known that there exist infinitely-many inequivalent representations of the canonical (anti)-commutation relations of Quantum Field Theory (QFT). A way out, suggested by Algebraic QFT, is to instead define the quantum theory as…
We implement a simulation of a quantum field theory in 1+1 space-time dimensions on a gate-based quantum computer using the light front formulation of the theory. The nonperturbative simulation of the Yukawa model field theory is verified…
Nonlinear spectroscopy with quantum entangled photons is an emerging field of research that holds the promise to achieve a superior signal-to-noise ratio and effectively isolate many-body interactions. Photon sources used for this purpose…
