Several quantum proper time derivatives are obtained from the Beck one in the usual framework of relativistic quantum mechanics (spin 1/2 case). The ``scalar Hamiltonians'' of these derivatives should be thought of as the conjugate…

We introduce the Hardy spaces for Fourier integral operators on Riemannian manifolds with bounded geometry. We then use these spaces to obtain improved local smoothing estimates for Fourier integral operators satisfying the cinematic…
Feynman path integrals are now a standard tool in quantum physics and their use in differential geometry leads to new mathematical insights. A logical treatment of quantum phenomena seems to require a sustained mathematical analysis of path…
We consider a Sturm--Liouville operator $Ly=-y''+qy$ in $L_2[0,\pi]$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We assume, that the potential $q$ is complex valued and belongs to Sobolev space $W_2^\theta[0,\pi]$, $\theta\in(-1,-1/2$. This…
We prove that a composition operator is bounded on the Hardy space $H^2$ of the right half-plane if and only if the inducing map fixes the point at infinity non-tangentially, and has a finite angular derivative $\lambda$ there. In this case…
Time continues to be an intriguing physical property in the modern era. On the one hand, we have the Classical and Relativistic notion of time, where space and time have the same hierarchy, which is essential in describing events in…
