We review the BV formalism in the context of $0$-dimensional gauge theories. For a gauge theory $(X_{0}, S_{0})$ with an affine configuration space $X_{0}$, we describe an algorithm to construct a corresponding extended theory $(\tilde{X},…
Finite BRST-BV transformations are studied systematically within the W-X formulation of the standard and the Sp(2)-extended field-antifield formalism. The finite BRST-BV transformations are introduced by formulating a new version of the Lie…
We consider classical and quantum mechanics related to an additional noncommutativity, symmetric in position and momentum coordinates. We show that such mechanical system can be transformed to the corresponding one which allows employment…
We discuss the geometry of the Lagrangian quantization scheme based on (generalized) Schwinger-Dyson BRST symmetries. When a certain set of ghost fields are integrated out of the path integral, we recover the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism,…
A novel functional integral formulation of quantum mechanics for non-Lagrangian systems is presented. The new approach, which we call "stringy quantization," is based solely on classical equations of motion and is free of any ambiguity…
We study the quantization of two versions of unimodular gravity, namely, fully diffeomorphism-invariant unimodular gravity and unimodular gravity with fixed metric determinant utilizing standard path integral approach. We derive the BRST…
We discuss the deformation quantization approach for the teaching of quantum mechanics. This approach has certain conceptual advantages which make its consideration worthwhile. In particular, it sheds new light on the relation between…
Using the BFV approach we quantize a pseudoclassical model of the spin one half relativistic particle that contains a single bosonic constraint, contrary to the usual locally supersymmetric models that display first and second class…
A Hamiltonian approach is presented to study the two dimensional motion of damped electric charges in time dependent electromagnetic fields. The classical and the corresponding quantum mechanical problems are solved for particular cases…
Effective Lagrangians containing arbitrary interactions of massive vector fields are quantized within the Hamiltonian path integral formalism. It is proven that correct Hamiltonian quantization of these models yields the same result as…
Employing the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) formalism, we present a systematic and simple prescription to derive (first-class) constraints including the Hamiltonian constraint (a.k.a. flow equation), which plays pivotal role in holographic…
Although the quantization of relativistic systems in a proper-time framework gives new insights concerning the understanding of the so-called localization problem, classical observers cannot be treated as quantum comoving frames and real…
We consider classical models of the kicked rotor type, with piecewise linear kicking potentials designed so that momentum changes only by multiples of a given constant. Their dynamics display quasi-localization of momentum, or quadratic…
The dynamics of a Brownian particle in a constant magnetic field and time-dependent electric field is studied in the limit of white noise, using a Langevin approach for the classical problem and the path-integral Feynman-Vernon and…
With the Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) quantization of gauge theory, we solve the long-standing difficult problem of the local constraint conditions, i.e., the single occupation of a slave particle per site, in the slave particle theory.…
We apply the Batalin-Tyutin Hamiltonian method to the Abelian Proca model in order to convert a second class constraint system into a first class one systematically by introducing the new fields. Then, according to the BFV formalism we…
Starting with the first-order singular Lagrangian describing the dynamical system with 2nd-class constraints, the noncommutative quantum mechanics on a curved space is investigated by the constraint star-product quantization formalism of…
The classical behaviour of a macroscopic system consisting of a large number of microscopic systems is derived in the framework of the Bohmian interpretation of quantum mechanics. Under appropriate assumptions concerning the localization…
We generalize the de Broglie-Bohm (dBB) formulation of quantum mechanics to the case of quantum gravity (QG) by using the effective action for a QG theory. This is done by replacing the dBB equations of motion with the effective action…
We apply the BV formalism to non-commutative field theories, introduce BRST symmetry, and gauge-fix the models. Interestingly, we find that treating the full gauge symmetry in non-commutative models can lead to reducible gauge algebras. As…
