The usual formulations of quantum field theory in Minkowski spacetime make crucial use of Poincare symmetry, positivity of total energy, and the existence of a unique, Poincare invariant vacuum state. These and other key features of quantum…

We propose a quantization procedure for the nucleon-scalar meson system, in which an arbitrary mean scalar meson field $\phi$ is introduced. The equivalence of this procedure with the usual ones is proven for any given value of $\phi$. By…

In this paper the relativistic quantum mechanics is considered in the framework of the nonstandard synchronization scheme for clocks. Such a synchronization preserves Poincar{\'e} covariance but (at least formally) distinguishes an inertial…

Well-defined nonlinear deformations of free quantum fields are introduced as manifestly Poincar\'e invariant scaling and resonance properties of non-dynamical scale models in Minkowski space, instead of introducing nonlinear dynamical…

A model of an extended manifold for the Dirac spinor field is considered. Two Lagrangians related by CPTM (charge-parity-time-mass) symmetry are constructed for a pair of the Dirac spinor fields with each spinor field defined in a separate…
