We represent in this note the solutions of the electronic Schr\"odinger equation as traces of higher-dimensional functions. This allows to decouple the electron-electron interaction potential but comes at the price of a degenerate elliptic…

Feynman's sum-over-histories formulation of quantum mechanics is reviewed as an independent statement of quantum theory in spacetime form. It is different from the usual Schr\"odinger-Heisenberg formulation that utilizes states on spacelike…
We study the time-harmonic scattering by a heterogeneous object covered with a thin layer of randomly distributed sound-soft nanoparticles. The size of the particles, their distance between each other and the layer's thickness are all of…

One of the reasons we expect a standard quantum mechanics, which predicts probabilities for alternatives defined on spacelike slices, to be inadequate for quantum gravity is that the notion of ``spacelike'' is ill-defined in a theory where…
In this paper we introduce a notion of scattering theory for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on non-compact, connected and complete Riemannian manifolds. A principal condition is given by a certain positive lower bound of the second…
The present work shows that through a suitable change of variables relativistic dynamics can be mapped to light propagation in a non-homogeneous medium. A particle's trajectory through the modified space-time is thus formally equivalent to…
