The classical and quantum dynamics of simple time-reparametrization- invariant models containing two degrees of freedom are studied in detail. Elimination of one ``clock'' variable through the Hamiltonian constraint leads to a description…
We consider the links between consistent and approximate descriptions of the quantum-classical systems, i.e. systems are composed of two interacting subsystems, one of which behaves almost classically while the other requires a quantum…
Two formulations of quantum mechanics, inequivalent in the presence of closed timelike curves, are studied in the context of a soluable system. It illustrates how quantum field nonlinearities lead to a breakdown of unitarity, causality, and…
A `coherent system' $(\Cal E,V)$, consists of a holomorphic bundle plus a linear subspace of its space of holomorphic sections. Based on the usual notion in Geometric Invariant Theory, a notion of slope stability has been defined for such…
Three simple examples illustrate properties of path integral amplitudes in fixed background spacetimes with closed timelike curves: non-relativistic potential scattering in the Born approximation is non-unitary, but both an example with…
Hamilton flows on K\"ahler manifold for which all trajectories are $H$-planar curves (complex analog of geodesics) are considered. These flows are called $H$-planar. The equation which has to obey the Hamiltonian of $H$-planar Hamilton flow…
We describe Hilbert's spacefilling curve in several different ways: as an automatic sequence of directions,as a regular and synchronized sequence of coordinates of lattice points encountered, and as an automatic bitmap image.

We discuss the classical and quantum mechanical evolution of systems described by a Hamiltonian that is a function of a solvable one, both classically and quantum mechanically. The case in which the solvable Hamiltonian corresponds to the…
We introduce one dimensional sets to help describe and constrain the integral curves of an $n$ dimensional dynamical system. These curves provide more information about the system than the zero-dimensional sets (fixed points) do. In fact,…

We present a renewed wave-packet analysis based on the following ideas: if a quantum one-particle scattering process and the corresponding state are described by an indivisible wave packet to move as a whole at all stages of scattering,…
A novel technique to determine invariant curves in nonlinear beam dynamics based on the method of formal series has been developed. It is first shown how the solution of the Hamilton equations of motion describing nonlinear betatron…
In a brief review, we discuss interrelations between arbitrary solutions of the loop equations that describe Hermitean one-matrix model and particular (multi-cut) solutions that describe concrete matrix integrals. These latter ones enjoy a…
We consider a Hamiltonian system which has its origin in a generalization of exact renormalization group flow of matrix scalar field theory and describes a non-linear generalization of the shock-wave equation that is known to be integrable.…
We observe that the Schrodinger equation may be written as two real coupled Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ)-like equations, each involving a quantum potential. Developing our established programme of representing the quantum state through exact…
We investigate the motion of a family of closed curves evolving according to the geometric evolution law on a given two dimensional manifold which is embedded or immersed in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. We derive a system of…
