We consider the wave equation on non-compact star graphs, subject to a distributional damping defined through a Robin-type vertex condition with complex coupling. It is shown that the non-self-adjoint generator of the evolution problem…
This paper applies the isotopic field-charge spin theory (Darvas, IJTP 2011) to the electromagnetic interaction. First there is derived a modified Dirac equation in the presence of a velocity dependent gauge field and isotopic field charges…
Consider a non-local (i.e., involving a convolution term) conservation law: when the convolution term converges to a Dirac delta, in the limit we formally recover a classical (or "local") conservation law. In this note we overview recent…
Doubly special relativity (DSR) is usually regarded as a low-energy limit of a quantum gravity theory with testable predictions. On the other hand, non-local quantum field theories have been presented as a solution to the inconsistencies…
This article considers dynamical entanglement in non-relativistic particle scattering. Three questions are explored: what kinds of entanglement occur in this system, how do global symmetries constrain entanglement, and how do the boundary…
We speculate on the role of relativistic versions of delayed differential equations in fundamental physics. Relativistic invariance implies that we must consider both advanced and retarded terms in the equations, so we refer to them as…
We propose a manifestly Lorentz covariant, non-commutative Dirac equation for charged particles interacting with an electromagnetic field. The equation is formulated on the operator level, but operators are not composed through the normal…
The analysis of measurements of accelerated observers in Minkowski spacetime has led to the development of nonlocal special relativity theory. Inertia and gravitation are intimately connected in accordance with the principle of equivalence.…
In this paper we will provide smoking-gun signatures of nonlocal interactions while studying reflection and transmission of waves bouncing through two Dirac delta potentials. In particular, we will show that the transmission of waves is…
We revisit in the framework of the classical theory the problem of the accelerated motion of an electron, taking into account the effect of the radiation emission. We present results for the momentum and energy of the electromagnetic field…
The Levinson theorem for nonrelativistic quantum mechanics in two spatial dimensions is generalized to Dirac particles moving in a central field. The theorem relates the total number of bound states with angular momentum $j$ ($j=\pm 1/2,…
We present a local interpretation of what is usually considered to be a nonlocal de Broglie-Bohm trajectory prescription for an entangled singlet state of massive particles. After reviewing various meanings of the term ``nonlocal'', we show…
We begin with a scenario that involves point-like observers starting at t=0 from the origin O of an inertial reference frame. They move with all possible proper accelerations in the positive direction of the OX axis. Equipped with light…
The behaviour is investigated of solutions to a diffusion equation on the real line with nonlocal and singular reaction term, i.e., given by a Dirac source or sink at the origin. It gives a simplified representation of for example a control…
The covariant Dirac equation and its solutions show that rotation and acceleration can be used to generate and control spin currents.
We examine the transformation of particle trajectories in models with deformations of Special Relativity that have an energy-dependent and observer-independent speed of light. These transformations necessarily imply that the notion of what…
The paper analyzes time propagation of Dirac observables - using Heisenberg representation - in the light of various pseudodifferential operator algebras (cf. [Co3], [Co15], [Co16]). Our theory gives (i) a mechanical angular momentum (the…
We consider unitarity and causality in a higher-derivative theory of infinite order, where propagators fall off more quickly in the ultraviolet due to the presence of a transcendental entire function of the momentum. Like Lee-Wick theories,…
The spin-dependent inertial force in an accelerating system under the presence of electromagnetic fields is derived from the generally covariant Dirac equation. Spin currents are evaluated by the force up to the lowest order of the…
In the light of their relationships with renormalization, in this paper we associate the scaling transformation with nonlocal interactions. On one hand, the association leads us to interpret the nonlocality with locally symmetric method. On…
