In this work, we suggest a view-point that leads to an intrinsic mass scale in Quantum Field Theories. This view-point is fairly independent of dynamical details of a QFT and does not rely on any particular framework to go beyond the…
Entanglement constitutes one of the key concepts in quantum mechanics and serves as an indispensable tool in the understanding of quantum many-body systems. In this work, we perform extensive numerical investigations of extensive…
Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) theorems impose non-perturbative constraints on the zero-temperature phase diagrams of quantum lattice Hamiltonians (always assumed to be local in this paper). LSM theorems have recently been interpreted as the…
We extend to any maximally entangled state of a bipartite system whose constituents are arbitrarily (but finite) dimensional the result, recently derived for two-dimensional constituents, that hidden variable theories cannot have local…
We utilise a quotient of the universal enveloping algebra of the Poincar\'e algebra in three spacetime dimensions, on which we formulate a covariant constancy condition. The equations so obtained contain the Fierz-Pauli equations for…
Affleck, Kennedy, Lieb, and Tasaki constructed a spin-1 model that is isotropic in spins and possesses a provable finite gap above the ground state more than three decades ago. They also constructed models in two dimensions. Their…
The $(1+1)$-dimensional Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe filled with a perfect fluid with equation of state $p=\omega \rho$ is analyzed through the view of Ho\v rava-Lifshitz (HL) theory of gravity. In this theory, the anisotropic…
We revisit the question of string order and hidden symmetry breaking in the q-deformed AKLT model, an example of a spin chain that possesses generalized symmetry. We first argue that the non-local Kennedy-Tasaki duality transformation that…
By generalizing the Feynman proof of the Lorentz force law, recently reported by Dyson, we derive equations of motion for particles possessing internal degrees of freedom $I^a$ which do not, in general, generate a finite algebra. We obtain…
In this paper, we extend the notion of finite-time input-to-state stability (FTISS) for finite-dimensional systems to infinite-dimensional systems. More specifically, we first prove an FTISS Lyapunov theorem for a class of…
Finite size scaling for a first order phase transition where a continuous symmetry is broken is developed using an approximation of Gaussian probability distributions with a phenomenological "degeneracy" factor included. Predictions are…
In this paper the relativistic quantum dynamics of a spin-1/2 neutral particle with a magnetic moment $\mu$ in the cosmic string spacetime is reexamined by applying the von Neumann theory of self--adjoint extensions. Contrary to previous…
We prove that the ground state of the AKLT models on the hexagonal lattice and the Lieb lattice satisfy the local topological quantum order (LTQO) condition. This will be a consequence of proving that the finite volume ground states are…
The raise of the symmetry breaking mechanism by Landau[1] is a landmark in the studies of phase transitions. The Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition[2-3] and the fractional quantum Hall effect[4], however, are believed to be induced by…
Motivated by the question of stability, in this letter we argue that an effective "quantum" theory can emerge in complex adaptive systems. In the concrete example of stochastic Lotka-Volterra dynamics, the relevant effective "Planck…
The field theory quantized on the {\it light-front} is compared with the conventional equal-time quantized theory. The arguments based on the {\it microcausality} principle imply that the light-front field theory may become nonlocal with…
The scattering theory of Lax and Phillips, designed primarily for hyperbolic systems, such as electromagnetic or acoustic waves, is described. This theory provides a realization of the theorem of Foias and Nagy; there is a subspace of the…
We compute universal finite corrections to entanglement entropy for generalised quantum Lifshitz models in arbitrary odd spacetime dimensions. These are generalised free field theories with Lifshitz scaling symmetry, where the dynamical…
The usual methods for formulating and solving the quantum mechanics of a particle moving in a magnetic field respect neither locality nor any global symmetries which happen to be present. For example, Landau's solution for a particle moving…
A quantum theory of gravity is described in the case of a positive cosmological constant in 3+1 dimensions. Both old and new results are described, which support the case that loop quantum gravity provides a satisfactory quantum theory of…
