Selection of physically meaningful solutions of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for the wavefunction in quantum cosmology, can be attained by a reduction of the theory to the sector of true physical degrees of freedom and their canonical…
If electromagnetic parameters of a medium vary in time, quantum light waves traveling in it become nonstatic. A recent report shows that such nonstatic waves can also appear even when the environment is static where the parameters of the…
I review arguments demonstrating how the concept of "particle" numbers arises in the form of equidistant energy eigenvalues of coupled harmonic oscillators representing free fields. Their quantum numbers (numbers of nodes of the wave…
We propose a new point of view regarding the problem of time in quantum mechanics, based on the idea of replacing the usual time operator $\mathbf{T}$ with a suitable real-valued function $T$ on the space of physical states. The proper…
With an apparent delay of over one century with respect to the development of standard Analytical Mechanics, but still in fully classical terms, the behavior of classical monochromatic wave beams in stationary media is shown to be ruled by…
The spread of the wave-function, or quantum uncertainty, is a key notion in quantum mechanics. At leading order, it is characterized by the quadratic moments of the position and momentum operators. These evolve and fluctuate independently…
It has been suggested that the nonlinear Schr\"odinger-Newton equation might approximate the coupling of quantum mechanics with gravitation, particularly in the context of the M{\o}ller-Rosenfeld semiclassical theory. Numerical results for…
It is well known that Schr\"{o}dinger's equation is only suitable for the particle in conservative force field. In atomic and molecular field, a particle can suffer the action of non-conservative force. In this paper, a new quantum wave…
In this paper, we study the implications of conformal invariance in momentum space for correlation functions in quantum mechanics. We find that three point functions of arbitrary operators can be written in terms of the $_2 F_1$…
We choose a complete set of square integrable functions as basis for the expansion of the wavefunction in configuration space such that the matrix representation of the nonrelativistic time-independent wave operator is tridiagonal and…
After summarizing three versions of trajectory-based quantum mechanics, it is argued that only the original formulation due to Bohm, which uses the Schr\"odinger wave function to guide the particles, can be readily extended to particles…
A first-quantized string (and membrane) theory is developed here by using a general wave function of the string (and membrane), analogously to the first-quantized quantum theory of a point particle. From the general wave function of the…
Our understanding of quantum field theory rests largely on explicit and controlled calculations in perturbation theory. Because of this, much recent effort has been devoted to improve our grasp of perturbative techniques on cosmological…
The Bohmian interpretation of the many-fingered time (MFT) Tomonaga-Schwinger formulation of quantum field theory (QFT) describes MFT fields, which provides a covariant Bohmian interpretation of QFT without introducing a preferred foliation…
We introduce a family of relativistic non-rigid non-inertial frames as a gauge fixing of the description of N positive energy particles in the framework of parametrized Minkowski theories. Then we define a multi-temporal quantization scheme…
The problem of time in quantum mechanics concerns the fact that in the Schr\"odinger equation time is a parameter, not an operator. Pauli's objection to a time-energy uncertainty relation analogue to the position-momentum one, conjectured…
The resources required to solve the general interacting quantum N-body problem scale exponentially with N, making the solution of this problem very difficult when N is large. In a previous series of papers we develop an approach for a…
A quantum mechanics representation based on position ($\vec{r}$), linear momentum($\vec{p}$) and energy($E$) eigenvalues is presented here. A set of equations, explicitly independent on wave function, was derived relating these observables.…
The behavior of classical monochromatic waves in stationary media is shown to be ruled by a novel, frequency-dependent function which we call Wave Potential, and which we show to be encoded in the structure of the Helmholtz equation. An…
Although local Hamiltonians exhibit local time dynamics, this locality is not explicit in the Schr\"{o}dinger picture in the sense that the wavefunction amplitudes do not obey a local equation of motion. We show that geometric locality can…
