A ring resonator involves a scattering process where a part of the output is fed again into the input. The same formal structure is encountered in the problem of time travel in a neighborhood of a closed timelike curve (CTC). We know how to…
The aim of this paper is to give an explicit formula for the calculation of the Gutzwiller--Maslov index of a Hamiltonian periodic orbit. We identify the index appearing in Gutzwiller's trace formula with a non-trivial extension of the…

Many interesting physical theories have analytic classical actions. We show how Feynman's path integral may be defined non-perturbatively, for such theories, without a Wick rotation to imaginary time. We start by introducing a class of…
Quantum-classical molecular dynamics, as a partial classical limit of the full quantum Schr\"odinger equation, is a widely used framework for quantum molecular dynamics. The underlying equations are nonlinear in nature, containing a quantum…
A general semiclassical method in phase space based on the final value representation of the Wigner function is considered that bypasses caustics and the need to root-search for classical trajectories. We demonstrate its potential by…
We quantize the Oppenheimer-Snyder model of black hole using the integral quantization method. We treat spatial and temporal coordinates on the same footing both at classical and quantum levels. Our quantization resolves or smears the…
Can classical systems be described analytically at all orders in their interaction strength? For periodic and approximately periodic systems, the answer is yes, as we show in this work. Our analytical approach, which we call the…
We introduce a simple criterion for lattice models to predict quantitatively the crossover between the classical and the quantum scaling of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism, as the one observed in a quantum $\phi^4$-model on a 1D lattice [Phys.…
