We analyze the algebra of observables of a charged particle on a noncommutative torus in a constant magnetic field. We present a set of generators of this algebra which coincide with the generators for a commutative torus but at a different…
It is shown that it is possible to define quantum field theory of a massless scalar free field on the Killing horizon of a 2D-Rindler spacetime. Free quantum field theory on the horizon enjoys diffeomorphism invariance and turns out to be…
We investigate the ground state of a free massless (pseudo)scalar field in 1+1-dimensional space-time. We argue that in the quantum field theory of a free massless (pseudo)scalar field without infrared divergences (Eur. Phys. J. C24, 653…
We present a covariant quantization scheme for the so-called "partially massless" graviton field in de Sitter spacetime. Our approach is founded on the principles of the de Sitter group representation theory (in the sense given by Wigner),…
We construct the Rarita-Schwinger basis vectors, $U^\mu$, spanning the direct product space, $U^\mu:=A^\mu\otimes u_M$, of a massless four-vector, $ A^\mu $, with massless Majorana spinors, $u_M$, together with the associated field-strength…
We consider field quantization on an arbitrary null hypersurface in curved spacetime. We discuss the de Sitter horizon as the simplest example, relating the horizon quantization to the standard Fock space in the cosmological patch. We…
We investigate quantum field theory in Rindler space with a UV cutoff by considering a free scalar field on a lattice in Rindler coordinates. We find that the Minkowski vacuum is not exactly thermal with respect to the local lattice Rindler…
While the robustness of Hawking radiation in the presence of UV Lorentz breaking is well-established, the Unruh effect has posed a challenge, with a large literature concluding that even the low-energy restoration of Lorentz invariance may…
We formulate the Gupta-Bleuler canonical, covariant and gauge invariant supersymmetric quantization of the supersymmetric (massless) vector field. Our main tool is the recently introduced Hilbert-Krein structure of the N=1 superspace.
We propose a general framework for studying quantum field theory on the anti-de-Sitter space-time, based on the assumption of positivity of the spectrum of the possible energy operators. In this framework we show that the n-point functions…

We study a set of static solutions of the Einstein equations in presence of a massless scalar field and establish their connection to the Kantowski-Sachs cosmological solutions based on some kind of duality transformations. The physical…
The vacuum expectation values of the energy--momentum tensor are investigated for massless scalar fields satisfying Dicichlet or Neumann boundary conditions, and for the electromagnetic field with perfect conductor boundary conditions on…
We give an interpretation of the temperature in de Sitter universe in terms of a dynamical Unruh effect associated with the Hubble sphere. As with the quantum noise perceived by a uniformly accelerated observer in static space-times,…
The notion of null (isotropic) vector field is considered in spaces with affine connections and metrics as models of space or space-time. On its basis the propagation of signals in space-time is considered. The Doppler effect is generalized…
The invariance of physical observables like particle's mass under a local field redefinition is a well-known and important property of quantum field theory. In this paper, on the other hand, we investigate nonlocal field redefinitions…
