General relativity and quantum mechanism are two separate rules of modern physics explaining how nature works. Both theories are accurate, but the direct connection between two theories was not yet clarified. Recently, researchers blur the…
We construct a quantum thermal field theory for scalar particles in the case of infinite statistics. The extension is provided by working out the Fock space realization of a "quantum algebra", and by identifying the hamiltonian as the…
We explore the implications of restricting the framework of quantum theory and quantum computation to finite fields. The simplest proposed theory is defined over arbitrary finite fields and loses the notion of unitaries. This makes such…
A path-integral approach for the computation of quantum-mechanical propagators and energy Green's functions is presented. Its effectiveness is demonstrated through its application to singular interactions, with particular emphasis on the…
In this comment it is pointed out that the perturbative dynamics of general massive field theories can be mapped to delimited sums of determined integral functions. The limits on the sums are the remaining obstacle to finding the general…
In this paper we start a systematic study of quantum field theory on random trees. Using precise probability estimates on their Galton-Watson branches and a multiscale analysis, we establish the general power counting of averaged Feynman…
We demonstrate that perturbative algebraic QFT methods, as developed by Fredenhagen and Rejzner, naturally yields a factorization algebras of observables for a large class of Lorentzian theories. Along the way we carefully articulate…
We construct the TQFT on symplectic cohomology and wrapped Floer cohomology, possibly twisted by a local system of coefficients, and prove that the TQFT respects Viterbo restriction maps and the canonical maps from ordinary cohomology. We…
I recall the main motivation to study quantum field theories on noncommutative spaces and comment on the most-studied example, the noncommutative R^4. That algebra is given by the *-product which can be written in (at least) two ways: in an…
We study finite-dimensional integrals in a way that elucidates the mathematical meaning behind the formal manipulations of path integrals occurring in quantum field theory. This involves a proper understanding of how Wick's theorem allows…
Generalized Fourier transformation between the position and the momentum representation of a quantum state is constructed in a coordinate independent way. The only ingredient of this construction is the symplectic (canonical) geometry of…
A variational phase space is constructed for a system of fields on Euclidean space with periodic boundary conditions. An extended action functional is defined such that the Euler-Lagrange equations generate a symplectic flow on the…
Associated Legendre functions of fractional degree appear in the solution of boundary value problems in wedges or in toroidal geometries, and elsewhere in applied mathematics. In the classical case when the degree is half an odd integer,…
We introduce a geometric construction of a gauge field theory of a complex adaptive system. It is based on a suitable simplicial formulation of a discrete geometry that manifests relevant properties valid in the classical differentiable…
We consider perturbative quantum field theory in the causal framework. Gauge invariance is, in this framework, an identity involving chronological products of the interaction Lagrangian; it express the fact that the scattering matrix must…
This article is the first of two where we investigate to what extent homotopy invariant, excisive and matrix stable homology theories help one distinguish between the Leavitt path algebras $L(E)$ and $L(F)$ of graphs $E$ and $F$ over a…
An analog of Kreimer's coproduct from renormalization of Feynman integrals in quantum field theory, endows an analog of Kontsevich's graph complex with a dg-coalgebra structure. The graph complex is generated by orientation classes of…
We analyze some consequences of two possible interpretations of the action of the ladder operators emerging from generalized Heisenberg algebras in the framework of the second quantized formalism. Within the first interpretation we…
By recourse to tempered ultradistributions, we show here that the effect of a q-Fourier transform (qFT) is to map {\it equivalence classes} of functions into other classes in a one-to-one fashion. This suggests that Tsallis' q-statistics…
For any row-finite graph $E$ and any field $K$ we construct the {\its Leavitt path algebra} $L(E)$ having coefficients in $K$. When $K$ is the field of complex numbers, then $L(E)$ is the algebraic analog of the Cuntz Krieger algebra…
