This thesis applies techniques from quantum field theory in curved spacetimes to study particle creation in external fields, focusing on the Schwinger effect (i.e., the production of particle-antiparticle pairs by intense electric fields).…
We present a Hamiltonian formulation of the Schwinger model on the circle in Coulomb gauge as a semi-bounded self-adjoint operator which is invariant under the modular group ${\cal M}=\Z$ of large gauge transformations. There is a…
Relativistic fermionic field theories constitute the fundamental description of all observable matter. The simplest of the models provide a useful, classically verifiable benchmark for noisy intermediate scale quantum computers. We…
An embedding method for solving the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation is developed using the Dirac-Frenkel variational principle. Embedding allows the time-evolution of the wavefunction to be calculated explicitly in a limited region of…
The nonlinear, cubic Schrodinger (NLS) equation has numerous physical applications, but in general is very difficult to solve. Nonetheless, under certain circumstances parameters quantifying the width, momentum and energy of the…
Conceptual analogies among statistical mechanics and classical (or quantum) mechanics often appeared in the literature. For classical two-body mean field models, an analogy develops into a proper identification between the free energy of…
It is not possible, using standard lattice techniques in Euclidean space, to calculate the complete fermionic spectrum of a quantum field theory. Algorithms running on quantum computers have the potential to access the theory with real-time…
The Ising model, in presence of an external magnetic field, is isomorphic to a model of localized interacting particles satisfying the Fermi statistics. By using this isomorphism, we construct a general solution of the Ising model which…
We investigate particle production \`a la Schwinger mechanism in an expanding, flat de Sitter patch as is relevant for the inflationary epoch of our universe. Defining states and particle content in curved spacetime is certainly not a…

The partition functions of ferromagnetic Ising models of square lattices in a finite magnetic field is deduced using topological considerations within a heuristic graph-theoretical approach. These equations are derived separately for low…
Solutions of field equations in $f(R)$ gravity are found for a spherically symmetric and static spacetime in the Born-Infeld (BI) non-linear electrodynamics. It is found that the models supported in this configuration must have the…
We introduced in a previous paper a general notion of asymptotic morphism of a given local net of observables, which allows to describe the sectors of a corresponding scaling limit net. Here, as an application, we illustrate the general…
The Wheeler - DeWitt geometrodynamics, as the first attempt to develop a quantum theory of gravity, faces certain challenges, including the problem of time and the interpretation of the wave function. In this paper, we present the extended…
Current models of quantum interference experiments in external gravitational fields lack a common framework: while matter-wave interferometers are commonly described using the Schr\"odinger equation with a Newtonian potential, gravitational…
We give a logically and mathematically self-consistent procedure of quantization of free scalar field, including quantization on space-like surfaces. A short discussion of possible generalization to interacting fields is added.
The main result of this paper is a Pfaffian formula for the partition function of the dimer model on a graph G embedded in a closed, possibly non-orientable surface S. This formula is suitable for computational purposes, and it is obtained…
