The relativistic precession can be quickly inferred from the nonlinear polar orbit equation without actually solving it.
We investigate the generalized Gross-Neveu model using the discretized light cone quantization and we find that the vacuum of the bare theory is {\sl non} trivial in presence of vectorial current coupling when the simplest and most natural…
We generalize Maxwell equations which describe the vacuum of quantum electrodynamics into the quantum form. This nontraditional approach is different from the widely used theory|-Quantum Electrodynamics. From another viewpoint, it could be…
We compare two notions of $G$-fiber bundles and $G$-principal bundles in the literature, with an aim to clarify early results in equivariant bundle theory that are needed in current work of equivariant algebraic topology. We also give…
In this paper, we compute uncertainty relations for non-commutative space and obtain a better lower bound than the standard one obtained from Heisenberg's uncertainty relation. We also derive the reverse uncertainty relation for product and…
The transverse lattice approach to non-perturbative light-front hamiltonian QCD is described. Preliminary results on the pi-rho system are presented, at fixed DLCQ and Tamm-Dancoff cut-offs. A renormalised, approximately Lorentz covariant…
The light-front quantization of QCD provides an alternative to lattice gauge theory for computing the mass spectrum, scattering amplitudes, and other physical properties of hadrons directly in Minkowski space. Nonperturbative light-front…
Quantum mechanics is interpreted by the adjacent vacuum that behaves as a virtual particle to be absorbed and emitted by its matter. As described in the vacuum universe model, the adjacent vacuum is derived from the pre-inflationary…
I present a solution to the Schwinger model in the light-cone representation which corrects an error in a previous work. I emphasize the details of the mechanism by which the physical vacuum is different than the perturbative vacuum. I…
We review the light-front Hamiltonian approach for the Abelian gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions, and then study electromagnetic duality in this framework.
We review work in areas ranging from condensed matter physics to quantum gravity, with the following interconnected questions in mind: (i) what is the nature of the vacuum in condensed matter systems, in quantum field theory, and in…
We review a possible framework for (non)linear quantum theories, into which linear quantum mechanics fits as well, and discuss the notion of ``equivalence'' in this setting. Finally, we draw the attention to persisting severe problems of…
We construct homology with trivial coefficients of Hom-Leibniz $n$-algebras. We introduce and characterize universal ($\alpha$)-central extensions of Hom-Leibniz $n$-algebras. In particular, we show their interplay with the zeroth and first…
We review the vacuum purely affine gravity with the nonsymmetric connection and metric. We also examine dynamical effects of the second Ricci tensor and covariant second-rank tensors constructed from the torsion tensor in the gravitational…
The relation between nonlinear algebras and linear ones is established. For one-dimensional nonlinear deformed Heisenberg algebra with two operators we find the function of deformation for which this nonlinear algebra can be transformed to…
We study light-front physics and conformal symmetry, and their interplay both on and off the light cone. The full symmetry of the light cone is conformal symmetry not just Lorentz symmetry. Spontaneously breaking conformal symmetry gives…
The Casimir force between conducting plates at rest in an inertial frame is usually computed in equal-time quantization, the natural choice for the given boundary conditions. We show that the well-known result obtained in this way can also…
We establish isomorphism ranges for the comparison maps between algebraic and topological K-groups, extending classical Quillen-Lichtenbaum conjecture to separated complex schemes of finite type after refinement. Additionally, we…
In this article the lack of equilibrium between matter and antimatter is elucidated. Heisenberg uncertainty principle is a crucial ingredient to understand this disproportion.
We investigate the issue of electromagnetic duality on the light front. We work with Zwanziger's theory of electric and magnetic sources which is appropriate for treating duality. When quantized on the light-front in the light front gauge,…
