Quantum field theory unifies concepts from quantum theory and from special relativity. Its mathematically rigorous description is quite intricate and is only partially understood; this is particularly true for the construction of operators…
Local integrals of motion play a central role in the understanding of many-body localization in many-body quantum systems in one dimension subject to a random external potential, but the question of how these local integrals of motion…
One of the many conceptual difficulties in the development of quantum gravity is the role of a background geometry for the structure of quantum field theory. To some extent the problem can be solved by the principle of local covariance. The…
We develop a general expression for weighted cross sections in leptonic annihilation to hadrons based on time-ordered perturbation theory (TOPT). The analytic behavior of the resulting integrals over spatial momenta can be analyzed in the…
Within the framework of local analytic sector subtraction, we present the full analytic integration of double-real and real-virtual local infrared counterterms that enter NNLO QCD computations with any number of massless final-state…
Unitarity of the global evolution is an extremely stringent condition on finite state models in discrete spacetime. Quantum cellular automata, in particular, are tightly constrained. In previous work we proved a simple No-go Theorem which…
We study the local indistinguishability problem of quantum states. By introducing an easily calculated quantity, non-commutativity, we present an criterion which is both necessary and sufficient for the local indistinguishability of a…
The correspondence between local unitary equivalence of bipartite quantum states and simultaneous orthogonal equivalence is thoroughly investigated and strengthened. It is proved that local unitary equivalence can be studied through…
The field theory quantized on the {\it light-front} is compared with the conventional equal-time quantized theory. The arguments based on the {\it microcausality} principle imply that the light-front field theory may become nonlocal with…
We present computable criterion for completely classifying multi-qubit quantum states under local unitary operations. The criterion can be used to detect whether two quantum states in multi-qubit systems are local unitary equivalent or not.…
Dimensional regularization of Euclidean momentum space integrals is a highly successful technique in renormalization of quantum field theories. While it yields a straightforward algorithmic method, with which to evaluate diagrams beyond…
A century after the advent of Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity, both theories enjoy incredible empirical success, constituting the cornerstones of modern physics. Yet, paradoxically, they suffer from deep-rooted, so-far intractable,…
Taking the induced action for gauge fields coupled to affine currents as an example, we show how loop calculations in non-local two-dimensional field theories can be regulated. Our regularisation method for one loop is based on the method…
The superselection sectors of two classes of scalar bilocal quantum fields in D>=4 dimensions are explicitly determined by working out the constraints imposed by unitarity. The resulting classification in terms of the dual of the respective…
Classification of different forms of quantum entanglement is an active area of research, central to development of effective quantum computers, and similar to classification of error-correction codes, where code duality is broadened to…
We present two general methods to implement quantum circuits for the direct measuring of local unitary invariants on quantum computers. We work these out for important three-qubit invariants, and also demonstrate these on the IBM Quantum…
Electromagnetism is the paradigm case of a theory that satisfies relativistic locality. This can be proven by demonstrating that, once the theory's laws are imposed, what is happening within a region fixes what will happen in the…
We develop a reformulation of the functional integral for bosons in terms of bilocal fields. Correlation functions correspond to quantum probabilities instead of probability amplitudes. Discrete and continuous global symmetries can be…
We investigate the task of local marking for locally implementable unitary operations. In this setting, multipartite quantum unitary channels, chosen randomly from a known set, are distributed among spatially separated parties without…
Local gauge symmetries reduce to the identity on the observables, as well as on the physical states (apart from reflexes of the local gauge group topology) and therefore their use in Quantum Field Theory (QFT) asks for a justification of…
