We develop an action formulation of stochastic dynamics in the Hilbert space. By generalizing the Wiener process into 1+3-dimensional spacetime, we define a Lorentz-invariant random field. By coupling the random to quantum fields, we obtain…
We present a unified approach to representations of quantum mechanics on noncommutative spaces with general constant commutators of phase-space variables. We find two phases and duality relations among them in arbitrary dimensions.…
Noncommutative quantum mechanics can be considered as a first step in the construction of quantum field theory on noncommutative spaces of generic form, when the commutator between coordinates is a function of these coordinates. In this…
Finite-dimensional Quantum Mechanics can be geometrically formulated as a proper classical-like Hamiltonian theory in a projective Hilbert space. The description of composite quantum systems within the geometric Hamiltonian framework is…
The Wigner-Weyl isomorphism for quantum mechanics on a compact simple Lie group $G$ is developed in detail. Several New features are shown to arise which have no counterparts in the familiar Cartesian case. Notable among these is the notion…
A classical theorem of Stone and von Neumann says that the Schr\"{o}dinger representation is, up to unitary equivalences, the only irreducible representation of the Heisenberg group on the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions on…
The geometric form of standard quantum mechanics is compatible with the two postulates: 1) The laws of physics are invariant under the choice of experimental setup and 2) Every quantum observation or event is intrinsically statistical.…
In conventional quantum mechanics, all unitary evolution takes place within the space-time Hilbert space $\mathcal H_{xt}=L^2(\mathcal M_{xt})$, with time as the sole evolution parameter. The momentum-energy representation $\phi(k,E)$ is…
Relativistic geometrical action for a quantum particle in the superspace is analyzed from theoretical group point of view. To this end an alternative technique of quantization outlined by the authors in a previous work and that is based in…
We develop a Heisenberg-picture \emph{kinematical} framework in which (i) time is treated as a quantum observable, admitting both a relational POVM construction for semibounded spectra and a fully self-adjoint realization on an enlarged…
Time-symmetric quantum mechanics can be described in the usual Weyl--Wigner--Moyal formalism (WWM) by using the properties of the Wigner distribution, and its generalization, the cross-Wigner distribution. The use of the latter makes clear…
The difference between Lorentz invariance and Lorentz covariance is discussed in detail. A covariant formalism is developed for the internal space-time symmetry of extended particles, especially in connection with the insightful…
A symmetry in quantum mechanics is described by the projective representations of a Lie symmetry group that transforms between physical quantum states such that the square of the modulus of the states is invariant. The Heisenberg…
The dissertation deals with noncommutative field theories, namely field theories compatible with the existence of a minimal (quantum gravity) length scale. Two families of quantum spacetime are considered. One is characterized by semisimple…
We study some fundamental issues related to the Hilbert space representation of quantum mechanics in the presence of a minimal length and maximal momentum. In this framework, the maximally localized states and quasi-position representation…
Observable properties of a classical physical system can be modelled deterministically as functions from the space of pure states to outcomes; dually, states can be modelled as functions from the algebra of observables to outcomes. The…
We develop a new description of the much-studied $\kappa$-Minkowski noncommutative spacetime, centered on representing on a single Hilbert space not only the $\kappa$-Minkowski coordinates, but also the associated differential calculus and…
We describe generally deformed Heisenberg algebras in one dimension. The condition for a generalized Leibniz rule is obtained and solved. We analyze conditions under which deformed quantum-mechanical problems have a Fock-space…
We extend the Wigner-Weyl-Moyal phase-space formulation of quantum mechanics to general curved configuration spaces. The underlying phase space is based on the chosen coordinates of the manifold and their canonically conjugate momenta. The…
We consider classical and quantum dynamics of relativistic oscillator in Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{3,1}$. It is shown that for a non-zero frequency parameter $\omega$ the covariant phase space of the classical Klein-Gordon oscillator is…
