All the three point couplings involving tachyons and/or discrete states are obtained in $c=1$ two-dimensional (2-D) quantum gravity by means of the operator product expansion (OPE). Cocycle factors are found to be necessary in order to…

A class of non-linear eigenvalue problems defined in the form of operator polynomials is investigated. The problems are related to wave equations which appear in a relativistic quantum field theory. Spectral asymptotics for this class are…

The space, on which quantum field operators are given, is constructed in any theory, in which the usual product between test functions is substituted by the $\star$-product (the Moyal-type product). The important example of such a theory is…
