Symmetry transformations of the space-time fields of string theory are generated by certain similarity transformations of the stress-tensor of the associated conformal field theories. This observation is complicated by the fact that, as we…
Observables in the quantum field theories of $(D-1)$-form fields, $\ca$, on $D$-dimensional, compact and orientable manifolds, $M$, are computed. Computations of the vacuum value of $T_{ab}$ find it to be the metric times a function of the…
An analitical approximation of $<\phi^2>$ for a scalar field in a static spherically symmetric wormhole spacetime is obtained. The scalar field is assumed to be both massive and massless, with an arbitrary coupling $\xi$ to the scalar…
We analyse in details the problems which one faces trying to quantize a scalar field on the spacelike cylinder being the simple example of a spacetime with closed timelike curves. Our analysis brings to light the fact that the usual set of…

Within the framework of warped convolutions we deform the massless free scalar field. The deformation is performed by using the generators of the special conformal transformations. The investigation shows that the deformed field turns out…
We study conformal field theory in $d=1$ space-time dimensions. We derive a dispersion relation for the 4-point correlation function of identical bosons and fermions, in terms of the double discontinuity. This extends the conformal…
In this paper we consider self interacting scalar quantum field theories over a $d$ dimensional Minkowski spacetime with various interaction Lagrangians which are suitable functions of the field. The interacting field observables are…
Without a complete theory of quantum gravity, the question of how quantum fields and quantum particles behave in a superposition of spacetimes seems beyond the reach of theoretical and experimental investigations. Here we use an extension…
Using a massless scalar field as a clock variable, the Legendre transform of the group field theory Lagrangian gives a relational Hamiltonian. In the classical theory, it is natural to define 'equal relational time' Poisson brackets, where…

We study the Moyal commutators and their expectation values between vacuum states and non-vacuum states for free scalar field on noncommutative spacetime. Then from the Moyal commutators, we find that the microcausality is satisfied for the…
We study thermal effects for a noncommutative real scalar field in 2+1 dimensions including a Grosse-Wulkenhaar term. Using a perturbative expansion for the free energy, we deduce some general properties of the corresponding contributions,…
We establish a correspondence between a conformally invariant complex scalar field action (with a conformal self-interaction potential) and the action of a phantom scalar field minimally coupled to gravity (with a cosmological constant). In…
