The landscape of causal relations that can hold among a set of systems in quantum theory is richer than in classical physics. In particular, a pair of time-ordered systems can be related as cause and effect or as the effects of a common…
We study a dynamical mechanism that generates a composite vectorlike fermion, formed by the binding of an $N$-tuplet of elementary chiral fermions to an $N$-tuplet of scalars. Deriving the properties of the composite fermion in the large…
Fermionic linear optics corresponds to the dynamics of free fermions, and is known to be efficiently simulable classically. We define fermionic anyon models by deforming the fermionic algebra of creation and annihilation operators, and…
The concept of quantum-mechanical nematic order, which is important in systems such as superconductors, is based on an analogy to classical liquid crystals, where order parameters are obtained through orientational expansions. We generalize…
It is natural to study octonion Hilbert spaces as the recently swift development of the theory of quaternion Hilbert spaces. In order to do this, it is important to study first its algebraic structure, namely, octonion modules. In this…
In this article, we explore the inconsistencies in the physics of fermionic oscillators and propose potential solutions to address them. By rigorously deriving the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian from first principles, we aim to provide a…
We have recently proposed a new matrix dynamics at the Planck scale, building on the theory of trace dynamics. This is a Lagrangian dynamics in which the matrix degrees of freedom are made from Grassmann numbers, and the Lagrangian is trace…
Although the internal spaces describing spins and charges of fermions' and bosons' second-quantised fields have such different properties, yet we can all describe them equivalently with the ``basis vectors'' which are a superposition of odd…
Models of PT symmetric quantum mechanics provide examples of biorthogonal quantum systems. The latter incorporporate all the structure of PT symmetric models, and allow for generalizations, especially in situations where the PT construction…
We briefly review a recently developed semiclassical theory for quantum oscillations in the spatial (particle and kinetic energy) densities of finite fermion systems and present some examples of its results. We then discuss the inclusion of…
Strongly correlated Fermi systems are among the most intriguing, best experimentally studied and fundamental systems in physics. These are, however, in defiance of theoretical understanding. The ideas based on the concepts like Kondo…
Effects of gravitational interaction are generally neglected in particle physics. A first order formulation of gravity is presented to include gravity in Quantum Mechanical Lagrangian of fermions. It is seen that fermions minimally coupled…
By consireding representation theory for non-associative algebras we construct the fundamental and adjoint representations of the octonion algebra. We then show how these representations by associative matrices allow a consistent octonionic…
Time-reversal symmetry is a prevalent feature of microscopic physics, including operational quantum theory and classical general relativity. Previous works have studied indefinite causal structure using the language of operational quantum…
The fractional quantum Hall effect remains a captivating area in condensed matter physics, characterized by strongly correlated topological order, which manifests as fractionalized excitations and anyonic statistics. Numerical simulations,…
A two boundary quantum mechanics without time ordered causal structure is advocated as consistent theory. The apparent causal structure of usual "near future" macroscopic phenomena is attributed to a cosmological asymmetry and to rules…
A general principle of `causal duality' for physical systems, lying at the base of representation theorems for both compound and evolving systems, is proved; formally it is encoded in a quantaloidal setting. Other particular examples of…
Causal reasoning is essential to science, yet quantum theory challenges it. Quantum correlations violating Bell inequalities defy satisfactory causal explanations within the framework of classical causal models. What is more, a theory…
We give a mathematical framework to describe the evolution of an open quantum systems subjected to finitely many interactions with classical apparatuses. The systems in question may be composed of distinct, spatially separated subsystems…
More often than not, recently popular structuralist interpretations of physical theories leave the central concept of a structure insufficiently precisified. The incipient causal sets approach to quantum gravity offers a paradigmatic case…
