Generalized parton distribution functions (GPDs) of spin-3/2 particles are defined for the first time in this paper. Eight unpolarized and eight polarized GPDs are found. In the forward limit of GPDs, the structure functions and parton…
A new formulation of field theory is presented, based on a pseudo-complex description. An extended group structure is introduced, implying a minimal scalar length, rendering the theory regularized a la Pauli-Villars. Cross sections are…
Extending our prior investigation, we give a new off-shell construction of theories of spinning particles propagating in Minkowski spaces with arbitrary $N$-extended supersymmetry on the world-line. The basis of the new off-shell…
By assuming certain analytic properties of the propagator, it is shown that universal features of the spectral function including threshold enhancement arise if a pole describing a particle at high temperature approaches in the complex…
We introduce a rigorous approach to the many-body spectral theory of extended anyons, i.e. quantum particles confined to two dimensions that interact via attached magnetic fluxes of finite extent. Our main results are many-body magnetic…
We show that the running of gravitational couplings, together with a suitable identification of the renormalization group scale can give rise to modified dispersion relations for massive particles. This result seems to be compatible with…
The possibility of excitations with fractional spin and statististics in $1+1$ dimensions is explored. The configuration space of a two-particle system is the half-line. This makes the Hamiltonian self-adjoint for a family of boundary…

The concept of effective particles as degrees of freedom in a relativistic quantum field theory is defined using a non-perturbative renormalization group procedure for Hamiltonians. However, every candidate for a basic physical theory…
Integral and derivative dispersion relations (DR) are considered for the $pp$ and $\bar pp$ forward scattering amplitudes. A new representation for the derivative DR, valid at lower energies than the standard one, is obtained. The data on…
Closed nonrelativistic (nonretarded) theory of conservative and dissipative electromagnetic forces and heat exchange between moving particles (nanoprobes) and a surface (flat and cylindrical) is reviewed. The formalism is based on methods…
The techniques of dispersion relations match very well with those of effective field theory. I describe the techniques for using dispersion relations effectively, and give some pedagogical examples to illustrate the range of applications.
A general theory of preparational uncertainty relations for a quantum particle in one spatial dimension is developed. We derive conditions which determine whether a given smooth function of the particle's variances and its covariance is…
We study simple nonequilibrium distributions describing a classical gas of particles interacting via a pair potential ${\phi}(x/{\epsilon})$, in the Boltzmann-Grad scaling ${\epsilon} \rightarrow 0$. We establish bounds for truncated…
A number of hard exclusive scattering processes can be described in terms of generalized parton distributions (GPDs) and perturbative hard-scattering kernels. Both the physical amplitude and the hard-scattering kernels fulfill dispersion…

We consider a model system of persistent random walkers that can jam, pass through each other or jump apart (recoil) on contact. In a continuum limit, where particle motion between stochastic changes in direction becomes deterministic, we…
