We discuss non-commutative field theories in coordinate space. To do so we introduce pseudo-localized operators that represent interesting position dependent (gauge invariant) observables. The formalism may be applied to arbitrary field…
Open quantum systems are powerful effective descriptions of quantum systems interacting with their environments. Studying changes of Fock state probabilities can be intricate in this context since the prevailing description of open quantum…
We develop a reformulation of the functional integral for bosons in terms of bilocal fields. Correlation functions correspond to quantum probabilities instead of probability amplitudes. Discrete and continuous global symmetries can be…
An example of a toy model of $D=2$ Minkowski space and Poincar\'e group with real deformation parameter $q$ is considered. A notion of free motion is defined. The kinematics and phase-space are constructed and the ``uncertainity'' ralations…
New algebraic structure on electronic Fock space is studied in detail. This structure is defined in terms of a certain multiplication of many electron wave functions and has close interrelation with coupled cluster and similar approaches.…
We prove that the free Fock space ${\F}(\R^+;\C)$, which is very commonly used in Free Probability Theory, is the continuous free product of copies of the space $\C^2$. We describe an explicit embedding and approximation of this continuous…
We extend a quantum model in Hilbert space developed in Aerts (2007a) into a quantum field theoric model in Fock space for the modeling of the combination of concepts. Items and concepts are represented by vectors in Fock space and…
We formulate a theory of generalized Fock spaces which underlies the different forms of quantum statistics such as ``infinite'', Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics. Single-indexed systems as well as multi-indexed systems that cannot…
In order to better understand a complex theory like quantum mechanics, it is sometimes useful to take a step back and create alternative theories, with more intuitive foundations, and examine which features of quantum mechanics can be…
We adress the problem of Fock space representations of (free) multiplet component fiels encountered in supersymmetric quantum field theory insisting on positivity and causality. We look in detail on the scalar and Majorana components of the…
We discuss various symmetry properties of the N = 2 supersymmetric quantum spin model in one (0 + 1)-dimension of spacetime and provide their relevance in the realm of the mathematics of differential geometry. We show one-to-one mapping…
New models of the Fock space sector corresponding to some fixed number of electrons are introduced. These models originate from the representability theory and their practical implementation may lead to essential reduction of dimensions of…
We propose a toy-model theory, that mimics various characteristic features of quantum mechanics. Unlike the toy-models previously studied in the literature, our toy-model allows for an observer to have a full knowledge of a system's real…
We present a general theory of mixing for an arbitrary number of fields with integer or half-integer spin. The time dynamics of the interacting fields is solved and the Fock space for interacting fields is explicitly constructed. The…
A program was recently initiated to bridge the gap between the Planck scale physics described by loop quantum gravity and the familiar low energy world. We illustrate the conceptual problems and their solutions through a toy model: quantum…
We provide two mathematical descriptions of Spekkens's toy qubit theory, an inductively one in terms of a small set of generators, as well as an explicit closed form description. It is a subcategory MSpek of the category of finite sets,…
We elaborate further the functional Schr\"{o}dinger-picture approach to the quantum field in curved spacetimes using the generalized invariant method and construct explicitly the Fock space, which we relate with the thermal field theory. We…

Algebraic quantum field theory provides a general, mathematically precise description of the structure of quantum field theories, and then draws out consequences of this structure by means of various mathematical tools -- the theory of…
