This is mainly a lecture note taken by myself following Weinberg's book, but also contains some corrections to the abuse of mathematical treatment. This article discusses projective unitary representations of Poincare group on the single…
The role of quantum universal enveloping algebras of symmetries in constructing a noncommutative geometry of space-time and corresponding field theory is discussed. It is shown that in the framework of the twist theory of quantum groups,…

We interpret, in the realm of relativistic quantum field theory, the tangential operator given by Coleman, Mandula as an appropriate coordinate operator. The investigation shows that the operator generates a Snyder-like noncommutative…
For a large class of integrable quantum field theories we show that the S-matrix determines a space of fields which decomposes into subspaces labeled, besides the charge and spin indices, by an integer k. For scalar fields k is non-negative…
We introduce and study the generalized Wigner operator. By definition, such an operator transforms the Wigner wave function into a local relativistic field corresponding to an irreducible representation of the Poincar\'e group by extended…

Manifestly covariant formulation of discrete-spin, real-mass unitary representations of the Poincar\'e group is given. We begin with a field of spin-frames associated with 4-mometa p and use them to simplify the eigenvalue problem for the…
In the following work, we pedagogically develop 5-vector theory, an evolution of scalar field theory that provides a stepping stone toward a Poincar\'e-invariant lattice gauge theory. Defining a continuous flat background via the…
We propose a contraction of the de Sitter quantum group leading to the quantum Poincare group in any dimensions. The method relies on the coaction of the de Sitter quantum group on a non--commutative space, and the deformation parameter $q$…
Having started with the general formulation of the quantum theory of the real scalar field (QFT) in the general Riemannian space--time $ V_{1,3} $, the general--covariant quasinonrelativistic quantum mechanics of a point-like spinless…
Operators in quantum mechanics - either observables, density or evolution operators, unitary or not - can be represented by c-numbers in operator bases. The position and momentum bases are in one to one correspondence with lagrangian planes…
We explore some general consequences of a proper, full enforcement of the "twisted Poincare'" covariance of Chaichian et al. [14], Wess [50], Koch et al. [34], Oeckl [41] upon many-particle quantum mechanics and field quantization on a…
By adopting a local QFT framework one can derive in a non-perturbative manner the constraints imposed by Poincar\'e symmetry on the form factors appearing in the Lorentz covariant decomposition of the energy-momentum tensor matrix elements.…
Relativistic Quantum Mechanics suffers from structural problems which are traced back to the lack of a position operator $\hat{x}$, satisfying $[\hat{x},\hat{p}]=i\hbar\hat{1}$ with the ordinary momentum operator $\hat{p}$, in the basic…
