The tomographic picture of quantum mechanics has brought the description of quantum states closer to that of classical probability and statistics. On the other hand, the geometrical formulation of quantum mechanics introduces a metric…
A new link between tetrahedra and the group SU(2) is pointed out: by associating to each face of a tetrahedron an irreducible unitary SU(2) representation and by imposing that the faces close, the concept of quantum tetrahedron is seen to…
Coherent or semiclassical states in canonical quantum gravity describe the classical Schwarzschild space-time. By tracing over the coherent state wavefunction inside the horizon, a density matrix is derived. Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is…
For certain situations we give a geometrical background for quasiclassical KP calculations based on an explicit connection to quantum mechanics and the collapse of coherent states to coadjoint orbits for classical operators.
We introduce three representative topics in semi-classical analysis. Starting from the correspondence between classical and quantum mechanics, basic semi-classical analysis tools and results are presented. The three topics are investigated…

We construct normalizable, semi-classical states for the previously proposed model of quantum gravity which is formulated as a spectral triple over holonomy loops. The semi-classical limit of the spectral triple gives the Dirac Hamiltonian…
One of the crucial differences between mathematical models of classical and quantum mechanics is the use of the tensor product of the state spaces of subsystems as the state space of the corresponding composite system. (To describe an…

In quantum physics, the density operator completely describes the state. Instead, in classical physics the mean value of every physical quantity is evaluated by means of a probability distribution. We study the possibility to describe pure…
I develop a theory of classicality from quantum systems. This theory stems from the study of classical and quantum stationary stochastic processes. The stochastic processes are characterized by polyhedral (classical) and semidefinite…
If the four triangular facets of a tetrahedron can be partitioned into pairs having the same area, then the triangles in each pair must be congruent to one another. A Heron-style formula is then derived for the volume of a tetrahedron…
The entropy of apparent horizons is derived using coherent states or semiclassical states in quantum gravity. The leading term is proportional to area for large horizons, and the correction terms differ according to the details of the graph…
Analytical expressions for the semiclassical dressed states and corresponding quasienergies are obtained for a two-level quantum system driven by a nonresonant and/or strong laser field in a coherent state. These expressions are of first…
Semiclassical methods are essential in analyzing quantum mechanical systems. Although they generally produce approximate results, relatively rare potentials exist for which these methods are exact. Such intriguing potentials serve as…
We re-examine the semiclassical approximation to quantum gravity in the canonical formulation, focusing on the definition of a quasiclassical state for the gravitational field. It is shown that a state with classical correlations must be a…
Some quantal systems require only a small part of the full quantum theory for their analysis in classical terms. In such understanding we review some recent literature on semiclassical treatments. An analysis of it allows one to see that…
The present paper gives two concrete formulas for the volume of an arbitrary spherical tetrahedron, which is in a 3-dimensional spherical space of constant curvature +1. One formula is given in terms of dihedral angles, and another one is…
