In previous papers [1,2], it was proved that a covariant quantization of the minimally coupled scalar field in de Sitter space is achieved through addition of the negative norm states. This causal approach which eliminates the infrared…

We point out an inconsistency in a method used in the literature for studying adiabatic scalar perturbations in a regular bouncing universe (in four dimensions). The method under scrutiny consists of splitting the Bardeen potential into two…
We examine both quantum and classical versions of the problem of spin evolution in a slowly varying magnetic field. Main attention is given to the first- and second-order adiabatic corrections in the case of in-plane variations of the…
We describe some field theoretic methods for studying quantum spin systems in one dimension. These include the nonlinear sigma-model approach which is particularly useful for large values of the spin, the idea of Luttinger liquids and…
We propose a protocol for realizing the stripe phase in two spin models on a two-dimensional square lattice, which can be implemented with strongly magnetic atoms (Cr, Dy, Er, etc.) in optical lattices by encoding spin states into Zeeman…
We argue that $isotropic$ scalar fluctuations in solid inflation are adiabatic in the super-horizon limit. During the solid phase this adiabatic mode has peculiar features: constant energy-density slices and comoving slices do not coincide,…
Exact particle-like static, spherically and/or cylindrically symmetric solutions to the equations of interacting scalar and electromagnetic field system have been obtained within the scope of general relativity. In particular, we considered…
We discuss here the issue of regularity of initial data for dynamical spherically symmetric massless scalar field models in a spacetime. Generalizing the known solutions of Einstein equations given in this case by Wyman and Roberts, we…
We employ the superpotential technique for the reconstruction of cosmological models with a non-minimally coupled scalar field evolving on a spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker background. The key point in this method is that the…
In this paper we define a non-dynamical phase for a spin-1/2 particle in a rotating magnetic field in the non-adiabatic non-cyclic case, and this phase can be considered as a generalized Berry phase. We show that this phase reduces to the…
We study the relation between the Fock representations for a Dirac field given by the adiabatic scheme and the unique family of vacua with a unitarily implementable quantum evolution that is employed in hybrid quantum cosmology. This is…
This paper is concerned with the low regularity well-posedness of the adiabatic limit of the quantum Zakharov system, which is a modified nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLSE). As the quantum parameter tends to zero, the modified NLSE…
We generalize a regularization method of Stumpf 1984 in the case of non-linear spinor field models to fourth order theories and to non-scalar interactions. The involved discrete symmetries can be connected with C,P,T transformations.
We study the two-dimensional version of a quartic self-interacting quantum scalar field on a curved and noncommutative space (Snyder-de Sitter). We show that the model is renormalizable at the one-loop level and compute the beta functions…
Spatial entropy redistribution plays a key role in adiabatic cooling of ultra-cold lattice gases. We show that high-spin fermions with a spatially variable quadratic Zeeman coupling may allow for the creation of an inner spin-1/2 core…
