For a family of weight functions invariant under a finite reflection group, the boundedness of a maximal function on the unit sphere is established and used to prove a multiplier theorem for the orthogonal expansions with respect to the…
We investigate the ambiguities in the Fock quantization of the scalar perturbations of a Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker model with a massive scalar field as matter content. We consider the case of compact spatial sections (thus…
We present the Heisenberg-picture approach to the quantum evolution of the scalar fields in an expanding FRW universe which incorporates relatively simply the initial quantum conditions such as the vacuum state, the thermal equilibrium…
Classical and quantum complex nonlinear scalar fields are considered. A new approach to the quantization of nonlinear fields and the construction of a perturbation theory with allowance for spontaneous symmetry breaking is proposed, based…
We study the Fock description of a quantum free field on the three-sphere with a mass that depends explicitly on time, also interpretable as an explicitly time dependent quadratic potential. We show that, under quite mild restrictions on…
Light-front wavefunctions provide a frame-independent representation of hadrons in terms of their physical quark and gluon degrees of freedom. The light-front Hamiltonian formalism provides new nonperturbative methods for obtaining the QCD…
We discuss Euclidean covariant vector random fields as the solution of stochastic partial differential equations of the form $DA=\eta$, where $D$ is a covariant (w.r.t. a representation \tau of $SO(d)$) differential operator with "positive…
The fundamental action is dependent on momentum. Some consequences are presented for matter waves and scalar quantum field theory.
Parton physics, when formulated as light-front correlations, are difficult to study non-perturbatively, despite the promise of light-front quantization. Recently an alternative approach to partons have been proposed by re-visiting original…
The properties of infinite series in the Wick powers of a free field whose two-point correlation function has a singular infrared behavior and does not satisfy the positivity condition are investigated. If these series are defined on an…
We have shown that Wightman function of a free quantum field generates any complete set of solutions of relativistic wave equations. Using this approach we have constructed the complete set of solutions to 2d Dirac equation consisting of…
The state space and observables for the leading order of the large-N theory are constructed. The obtained model ("theory of infinite number of fields") is shown to obey Wightman-type axioms (including invariance under boost transformations)…
The light-front quantization of QCD provides an alternative to lattice gauge theory for computing the mass spectrum, scattering amplitudes, and other physical properties of hadrons directly in Minkowski space. Nonperturbative light-front…
If the recent observations suggesting a time variation of the fine structure constant are correct, they imply the existence of an ultra light scalar particle. This particle inevitably couples to nucleons through the \alpha-dependence of…
A new class of gravity-matter model defined with an independent non-Riemannian volume form is studied, in the second order formalism. The action has a global scale invariance symmetry, which can be broken by the equation of motion of the…
The interaction between singular and regular fields is considered for Lorentz-invariant scalar and vector wave equations. The singular field is generated by a Dirac source term. Its dynamics are deduced from the total field Lagrangian. At…
We investigate the possibility to construct a generalization of the Standard Model, which we call the Maximal Mass Model because it contains a limiting mass $M$ for its fundamental constituents. The parameter $M$ is considered as a new…
We study the factorization of soft and collinear singularities in dimensionally-regularized fixed-angle scattering amplitudes in massless gauge theories. Our factorization is based on replacing the hard massless partons by light-like Wilson…
The total mass of noncollinear photons forming diverging light pulses is defined and found explicitly. Both classical and quantum derivations are presented. The quantum derivation is based on the use of multimode coherent states, and links…
