The system is described by three mass-shell constraints. After a nonlinear transformation of the momenta, the analytic form taken by admissible interactions (allowing compatibility) is characterized in terms of the new variables. These…
Three-body systems of scalar bosons are described in the framework of relativistic constraint dynamics. With help of a change of variables followed by a change of wave function, two redundant degrees of freedom get eliminated and the…
We study in $\mathbb{R}^{3+1}$ a system of nonlinearly coupled Klein-Gordon equations under null condition, with (possibly vanishing) mass varying in the interval $[0, 1]$. Our goal is three folds: 1) we want to establish the global…
A (globally) neutral two-body system is supposed to obey a pair of coupled Klein-Gordon equations in a constant homogeneous magnetic field. Considering eigenstates of the pseudomomentum four-vector, we reduce these equations to a…
We define a modified covariant Klein-Gordon (KG) equation containing quantum vacuum contributions arising from the self-interaction of matter with its own internal kinetic energy. The modified KG equation is exemplified for a variety of…
Two alternative ways of description an evolution constrained by mass-shell equation are given by the hyperbolic and the periodic angles. In the both cases the angles are proportional to the mass. The differential operators with respect to…
We extend the three-dimensional noncommutative relations of the positions and momenta operators to those in the four dimension. Using the Bopp shift technique, we give the Heisenberg representation of these noncommutative algebras and endow…

The relativistic two-body problem is considered for spinless particles subject to an external macroscopic electromagnetic field. When this field is made of the monochromatic superposition of two counter-propagating plane waves (and provided…
The Klein-Gordon equation describes the wave-like behavior of spinless particles since it is Lorentz invariant. While it seemed initially ripe for explaining the electronic structure of the hydrogen atom, the lack of a unconditional…
The formulation of a rigid body in relativistic quantum mechanics is studied. Departing from an alternate approach at the relativistic classical level, the corresponding Klein-Gordon and Dirac operators for the rigid body are obtained in…
For Klein-Gordon equation a consistent physical interpretation of wave functions is reviewed as based on a proper modification of the scalar product in Hilbert space. Bound states are then studied in a deep-square-well model where spectrum…

A detailed consideration of the Klein-Gordon equation in relativistic quantum mechanics is presented in order to offer more clarity than many standard approaches. The equation is frequently employed in the research literature, even though…
