Feynman path integrals are now a standard tool in quantum physics and their use in differential geometry leads to new mathematical insights. A logical treatment of quantum phenomena seems to require a sustained mathematical analysis of path…

In this paper, we survey recent progress on the constructive theory of the Feynman operator calculus. (The theory is constructive in that, operators acting at different times, actually commute.) We first develop an operator version of the…
In this paper a fundamental length is introduced into physics. This is done in a way which respects special relativity and quantum field theory. The theory has formal similarity to quantum field theory though its properties are far better:…
In this paper, the origin of discrete dynamics is stated from a historical point of view, as well as its main ideas: fixed and periodic points, chaotic behaviour, bifurcations. This travel will begin with Poincar\'e's work and will finish…
In quantum information theory, there is an explicit mapping between general unitary dynamics and Hermitian ground state eigenvalue problems known as the Feynman-Kitaev Clock. A prominent family of methods for the study of quantum ground…

We study the most elementary model of electron motion introduced by R.Feynman in 1965. It is a game, in which a checker moves on a checkerboard by simple rules, and we count the turnings. The model is also known as one-dimensional quantum…
We find a two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian for the time-symmetric problem of straight line motion of two electrons in direct relativistic interaction. This time-symmetric dynamical system appeared 100 years ago and it was popularized in…
We review the construction of ("free") elementary systems in de Sitter (dS) spacetime, in the Wigner sense, as associated with unitary irreducible representations (UIR's) of the dS (relativity) group. This study emphasizes the conceptual…
Physical interpretation of Lie algebra of de Sitter group is given for Snyder theory of quantum space-time. Feasible means of its experimental validation are pointed out.
We present the basic concepts of space and time, the Galilean and pseudo-Euclidean geometry. We use an elementary geometric framework of affine spaces and groups of affine transformations to illustrate the natural relationship between…
We describe the origins of recurrence relations between field theory amplitudes in terms of the construction of Feynman diagrams. In application we derive recurrence relations for the amplitudes of QED which hold to all loop orders and for…
The paper puts together some loosely connected observations, old and new, on the concept of a quantum field and on the properties of Feynman amplitudes. We recall, in particular, the role of (exceptional) elementary induced representations…
Relativistic formalism of Green's functions is dicussed in QCD and QED,where the relativistic Green's functions are constructed using the Schwinger proper time formalism and the Fock-Feynman-Schwinger method.As a result a simple and exact…
A study of the retardation contributions to the hadronic quark interaction is performed in the coordinate space elaborating a classical electrodynamics procedure. The possibility of constructing a corresponding quantum operator is…

We show that Feynman's Clock construction, in which the time-evolution of a closed quantum system is encoded as a ground state problem, can be extended to open quantum systems. In our formalism, the ground states of an ensemble of…
We comment on the paper "Feynman Effective Classical Potential in the Schrodinger Formulation"[Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 3303 (1998)]. We show that the results in this paper about the time evolution of a wave packet in a double well potential…
