We expand the theoretical toolbox for controllable quantum reflection by departing from a simple planar reflector. We introduce a circular hole (a micropore) of variable size, for which the electrostatic image potential can be exactly…
The equivalence postulate approach to quantum mechanics entails a derivation of quantum mechanics from a fundamental geometrical principle. Underlying the formalism there exists a basic cocycle condition, which is invariant under…
Quantum mechanical operators and quantum fields are interpreted as realizations of timespace manifolds. Such causal manifolds are parametrized by the classes of the positive unitary operations in all complex operations, i.e. by the…
In this note we review some results regarding higher order elliptic differential operators on manifolds without boundary.
In this article we specialize a construction of a reflection positive Hilbert space due to Dimock and Jaffe--Ritter to the sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$. We determine the resulting Osterwalder--Schrader Hilbert space, a construction that can be…
We generalize the formulation of non-commutative quantum mechanics to three dimensional non-commutative space. Particular attention is paid to the identification of the quantum Hilbert space in which the physical states of the system are to…
A formulation of chiral gauge theories on a lattice which is both reflection positive and gauge invariant is discussed.
For a partition $\underline{\lambda} = (\lambda_{1}^{\rho _1}>\lambda_{2}^{\rho _2}>\lambda_{3}^{\rho _3}>\ldots>\lambda_{k}^{\rho _k})$ and its associated finite $\mathcal{R}$-module…
We construct a class of negative spin irreducible representations of the su(2) Lie algebra. These representations are infinite-dimensional and have an indefinite inner product. We analyze the decomposition of arbitrary products of positive…
In the present paper we continue our investigations of the representation theoretic side of reflection positivity by studying positive definite functions \psi on the additive group (R,+) satisfying a suitably defined KMS condition. These…
This is a review paper concerned with the global consistency of the quantum dynamics of non-commutative systems. Our point of departure is the theory of constrained systems, since it provides a unified description of the classical and…
In this paper we construct a noncommutative space of ``pointed Drinfeld modules'' that generalizes to the case of function fields the noncommutative spaces of commensurability classes of Q-lattices. It extends the usual moduli spaces of…
This article proves the existence of completely positive quasimultiplicative maps from the group algebra of imprimitive reflection groups to the set of bounded operators, and uses those linear maps to define creation and annihilation…
Liouville transformations of Schr\"odinger equations preserve the scattering amplitudes while changing the effective potential. We discuss the properties of these gauge transformations and introduce a special Liouville gauge which allows…
Since their first introduction, Quantum Reference Frame (QRF) transformations have been extensively discussed, generalising the covariance of physical laws to the quantum domain. Despite important progress, a formulation of QRF…
We show that for two quivers without oriented cycles related by a BGP reflection, the posets of their tilting modules are related by a simple combinatorial construction, which we call flip-flop. We deduce that the posets of tilting modules…
Metaplectic quantum basis is a universal multi-qutrit quantum basis, formed by the ternary Clifford group and the axial reflection gate $R=|0\rangle \langle 0| + |1\rangle \langle 1| - |2\rangle \langle 2|$. It is arguably, a ternary basis…
We propose a new axiom system for unitary quantum field theories on curved space-time backgrounds, by postulating that the partition function and the correlators extend analytically to a certain domain of complex-valued metrics. Ordinary…
We study the effect of unidirectional reflectivity in the bilayer optical model with the balanced loss/gain terms. It was found that if the impedances characterizing the scattering part are different from those describing the leads, a new…
Group representations play a central role in theoretical physics. In particular, in quantum mechanics unitary --- or, in general, projective unitary --- representations implement the action of an abstract symmetry group on physical states…
