The massive, real scalar field described by the Klein-Gordon equation in one spatial dimension is the most elementary example of a bosonic quantum field theory. It has been investigated for many decades either as a simple academic theory or…

We study the semiclassical Einstein field equations with a Klein-Gordon field in ultrastatic and static spacetimes. In both cases, the equations for the spacetime metric become constraint equations. In the ultrastatic case, the Hadamard…

We show decay of the local energy of solutions of the charged Klein-Gordon equation in the exterior De Sitter-Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime by means of a resonance expansion of the local propagator.
We consider a system associated to Klein-Gordon equations with homogeneous time-dependent electric fields. The upper and lower boundaries of a time-evolution propagator for this system were proven by Veseli\'c in 1991 for electric fields…
We point out that the free single-fermion propagator which is used in the QFT equations for two-fermion systems, has a bosonic structure, transforms to the single-boson propagator for the Klein-Gordon equation in the nonrelativistic limit,…
Network models of dirty electronic systems are mapped onto an interacting field theory of lower dimensionality by intepreting one space dimension as time. This is accomplished via Feynman's interpretation of anti-particles as particles…
In a spacetime with no global timelike Killing vector, we do not have a natural choice for the vacuum state of matter fields, leading to an ambiguity in defining the Feynman propagators. In this paper, taking the vacuum state to be the…
The usual (Bunch-Davies) Feynman propagator of a massless field is not well defined in an expanding universe due to the presence of infrared divergences. We propose a new propagator which yields infrared finite answers to any correlation…
We show asymptotic completeness for the charged Klein-Gordon equation in the exterior De Sitter-Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime when the product of the charge of the black hole with the charge of Klein-Gordon field is small enough. We then…
We describe a procedure naturally associating relativistic Klein-Gordon equations in static curved spacetimes to non-relativistic quantum motion on curved spaces in the presence of a potential. Our procedure is particularly attractive in…
We solve the time-dependent Fokker-Planck equation for a two-dimensional active Brownian particle exploring a circular region with an absorbing boundary. Using the passive Brownian particle as basis states and dealing with the activity as a…

We consider the quantum mechanics of a charged particle in the presence of Dirac's magnetic monopole. Wave functions are sections of a complex line bundle and the magnetic potential is a connection on the bundle. We use a continuum…
We use the Klein-Gordon equation in a curved spacetime to construct the relativistic analog of the Schr\"odinger-Newton problem, where a scalar particle lives in a gravitational potential well generated by its own probability distribution.…
