We propose a new class of Proca interactions that enjoy a non-trivial constraint and hence propagates the correct number of degrees of freedom for a healthy massive spin-1 field. We show that the scattering amplitudes always differ from…
Symplectic quantization is a functional approach to quantum field theory that allows sampling of quantum fluctuations directly in Minkowski space time by means of a generalized Hamiltonian dynamics in an extra time variable $\tau$ which, at…
We construct a symplectic realisation of the twisted Poisson structure on the phase space of an electric charge in the background of an arbitrary smooth magnetic monopole density in three dimensions. We use the extended phase space…
Coherent state path integrals are applied to a many-body problem for non-relativistic electrons in a central potential and an external magnetic field; however, in comparison to previous coherent state path integrals, we definitely fix the…
The Proca potential has been used in many contexts in flat spacetime, but not so often in curved spacetime. Here, the static Proca potentials are derived on a Schwarzschild background, and are found to have very different forms from those…
We give an overview of the two different methods that have been introduced in order to describe the dynamics of constrained quantum systems; the symplectic formulation and the metric formulation. The symplectic method extends the work of…
A general prescription for the treatment of constrained quantum motion is outlined. We consider in particular constraints defined by algebraic submanifolds of the quantum state space. The resulting formalism is applied to obtain solutions…
Quantum Electrodynamics may be formulated as a Quantum Field Theory , and also as relativistic quantum mechanics by introduction of the Feynman-Stueckelberg parameter. As stated by M. Srednicki ({\it Quantum Field Theory}, Cambridge…

In Phys. Rev. A 70, 032104 (2004), M. Montesinos and G. F. Torres del Castillo consider various symplectic structures on the classical phase space of the two-dimensional isotropic harmonic oscillator. Using Dirac's quantization condition,…
A process-theoretic approach to electrodynamics based on persistent Kac-type stochastic processes is developed. Finite-velocity stochastic propagation is taken as primary, while relativistic wave equations arise as emergent descriptions…
Quantizing the electromagnetic field with a group formalism faces the difficulty of how to turn the traditional gauge transformation of the vector potential, $A_{\mu}(x)\rightarrow A_{\mu}(x)+\partial_{\mu}\varphi(x)$, into a group law. In…
In this article the methods of canonical analysis and quantization that were reviewed in the first part of the series are applied to the case of the Dirac field in the presence of electromagnetic interaction. It is shown that the…
The spin supplementary conditions are constraints on spin degrees of freedom in classical relativity which restricts physical degrees of freedom to rotations. It is argued that the equivalent constraints in quantum field theory are the…
We consider a model consists of the Einstein gravity in four-dimensional spacetime, a Proca field and two Dirac fields through minimum coupling. By numerically solving this model, we obtain two types of solutions: synchronized frequency…
We present a description of entanglement in composite quantum systems in terms of symplectic geometry. We provide a symplectic characterization of sets of equally entangled states as orbits of group actions in the space of states. In…
New features of a previously introduced Group Approach to Quantization are presented. We show that the construction of the symmetry group associated with the system to be quantized (the "quantizing group") does not require, in general, the…
The dynamics of classical field theories is usually governed by field equations, but when fields are constrained to bounded domains it is also dependent on its boundary conditions. Usually boundary conditions are constrained by the…
In the approach to the geometric quantization, based on the conversion of second-class constraints, we resolve the respective non-linear zero curvature conditions for the extended symplectic potential. From the zero curvature conditions, we…
