We investigate the equal-time (static) quark propagator in Coulomb gauge within the Hamiltonian approach to QCD. We use a non-Gaussian vacuum wave functional which includes the coupling of the quarks to the spatial gluons. The expectation…

We study the propagator of a non-relativistic, non-interacting particle in any non-relativistic ``time-machine'' spacetime of the type shown in Fig.~1: an external, flat spacetime in which two spatial regions, $V_-$ at time $t_-$ and $V_+$…

Recent study has shown that a non-singular oscillating potential, a feature of Infinite Derivative Gravity (IDG) theories, matches current experimental data better than the standard GR potential. In this work we show that this non-singular…

The action for a relativistic free particle of mass m receives a contribution $-m R(x,y)$ from a path of length R(x,y) connecting the events $x^i$ and $y^i$. Using this action in a path integral, one can obtain the Feynman propagator for a…

As a photon propagates along a null geodesic, the space-time curvature around the geodesic distorts its wave function. We utilise the Fermi coordinates adapted to a general null geodesic, and derive the equation for interaction between the…

A possible model for quantum kinematics of a test particle in a curved space-time is proposed. Every reasonable neighbourhood V_e of a curved space-time can be equipped with a nonassociative binary operation called the geodesic…

The aim of this contribution is twofold. First, we show that when two (or more) different quantum groups share the same noncommutative spacetime, such an 'ambiguity' can be resolved by considering together their corresponding noncommutative…
