The aim of the paper is to investigate resonances in quantum graphs with a general self-adjoint coupling in the vertices and their trajectories with respect to varying edge lengths. We derive formulae determining the Taylor expansion of the…
The universality of the large momentum expansion allows computing parton distribution functions (PDFs) starting from any Euclidean correlator with appropriate large momentum Fourier Components. Here we consider current-current correlators…
We build a purely inseparable Galois theory using non-derived commutative algebra. Our theory works on fields and on normal varieties. It says that a purely inseparable morphism corresponds to a finite (saturated) subalgebra of differential…
We theoretically study propagating correlation fronts in non-interacting fermions on a one-dimensional lattice starting from an alternating state, where the fermions occupy every other site. We find that, in the long-time asymptotic regime,…
A conduction electron (or hole) together with its self-induced polarisation in a polar semiconductor or an ionic crystal forms a quasi-particle, which is called a polaron. The polaron concept is of interest, not only because it describes…
From any graph $G$ arises a flat space wavefunction, obtained by integrating a product of propagators associated to the vertices and edges of $G$. This function is a key ingredient in the computation of cosmological correlators, and several…
The worldline formalism shares with string theory the property that it allows one to write down master integrals that effectively combine the contributions of many Feynman diagrams. While at the one-loop level these diagrams differ only by…
We develop a family of simple rank one theories built over quite arbitrary sequences of finite hypergraphs. (This extends an idea from the recent proof that Keisler's order has continuum many classes, however, the construction does not…
An integrable system is often formulated as a flat connection, satisfying a Lax equation. It is given in terms of compatible systems having a common solution called the ``wave function" $\Psi$ living in a Lie group $G$, which satisfies some…
While correlators of a CFT are single valued in Euclidean Space, they are multi valued -- and have a complicated sheet structure -- in Lorentzian space. Correlators on $R^{1,1}$ are well known to access a finite number of these sheets. In…
The hyperbolicity of a graph, informally, measures how close a graph is (metrically) to a tree. Hence, it is intuitively similar to treewidth, but the measures are formally incomparable. Motivated by the broad study of algorithms and…
We develop a theory of Feynman propagators for the massive Klein--Gordon equation with asymptotically static perturbations. Building on our previous work on the causal propagators, we employ a framework based on propagation of singularities…
The recent arXiv posting [13], commenting on Lemma 3.1 of the paper [7], argues that the proof is missing the spatial derivative of the density, which would lead to a Bohm quantum potential. This technical note shows why the propagated…
We show that the Feynman propagator (or the d'Alembertian) of a causal set contains the complete information about the causal set. Intuitively, this is because the Feynman propagator, being a correlator that decays with distance, provides a…
We extend a factorization due to Krein to arbitrary analytic functions from the upper half-plane to itself. The factorization represents every such function as a product of fractional linear factors times a function which, generally, has…
For many physical quantities, theory supplies weak- and strong-coupling expansions of the types $\sum a_n \alpha ^n$ and $ \alpha ^p\sum b_n (\alpha^{-2/q) ^n$, respectively. Either or both of these may have a zero radius of convergence. We…
In this paper, we show that all odd-point correlation functions of the balanced Rudin--Shapiro sequence vanish and that all even-point correlation functions depend only on a single number, which holds for any weighted correlation function…
A straightforward expansion of Edwards' functional integral representation of the grand partition function for a polymer liquid as an infinite set of Feynman diagrams is shown to yield a cluster expansion that is closely related to the…
The Schroedinger picture, which underpins the Wavefunction of the Universe framework to compute Cosmological Correlators, is known to be generically problematic in QFT because of the required infinite localization of the fields in time. We…
The first-order correlation function, which is accessible experimentally, contains all essential information about the state of the system of non-interacting electrons. Here I discuss how this function can be used to answer the question…
