Quantum field theory in curved spacetime may be defined either through a manifestly unitary canonical approach or via the manifestly covariant path integral formalism. For gauge theories, these two approaches have produced conflicting…
We perform the momentum-space quantization of a spin-less particle moving on the $SU(2)$ group manifold, that is, the three-dimensional sphere $S^{3}$, by using a non-canonical method entirely based on symmetry grounds. To achieve this…

It is shown uniquely that quantized spaces are realised on four-dimensional compact manifolds. In the case of O(1,5) quantized space this are four independent parameters of O(5) unit vector; in the case of O(2,4) these are parameters of one…
We analyze particle dynamics on $N$ dimensional one-sheet hyperboloid embedded in $N+1$ dimensional Minkowski space. The dynamical integrals constructed by $SO_\uparrow (1,N)$ symmetry of spacetime are used for the gauge-invariant…

The time operator canonically conjugated to the Hamiltonian of $N$ interacting particles on the line is constructed using SU(1,1) as a dynamical symmetry. This hidden conformal symmetry enables us to make a group theoretic analysis of the…
To improve the phase sensitivity, multi-photon subtraction schemes within the SU(1,1) interferometer are proposed. The input states are the coherent state and the vacuum state, and the detection method is homodyne detection. The effects of…
The effects of the spatiotemporal degrees of freedom on the practical implementation of an SU(1,1) interferometry is investigated. A recently developed Wigner functional approach is used to obtain the phase sensitivity of such an SU(1,1)…
We introduce a phase-space representation for qubits and spin models. The technique uses an SU(n) coherent state basis, and can equally be used for either static or dynamical simulations. We review previously known definitions and operator…
We consider trial wavefunctions exhibiting SU(K) symmetry which may be well-suited to grasp the physics of the fractional quantum Hall effect with internal degrees of freedom. Systems of relevance may be either spin-unpolarized states…
Further properties of a recently proposed higher order infinite spin particle model are derived. Infinitely many classically equivalent but different Hamiltonian formulations are shown to exist. This leads to a condition of uniqueness in…
