The Schwartz space $\mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ is not invariant under the $(k,a)$-generalized Fourier transform $\mathcal{F}_{k,a}$ unless $a=2$, and in general no such adapted space is known. For $N=1$ and $\displaystyle a=\frac{2}{n}$,…
In frames of the nonlocal and nonpolynomial quantum theory of the one component scalar field in $D$-dimensional spacetime, stated by Gariy Vladimirovich Efimov, the expansion of the $\mathcal{S}$-matrix is revisited for different…
We analyze functional analytic aspects of axiomatic formulations of nonlocal and noncommutative quantum field theories. In particular, we completely clarify the relation between the asymptotic commutativity condition, which ensures the CPT…
We establish a direct connection between two fundamental topics: one in probability theory and one in quantum field theory. The first topic is the problem of pointwise multiplication of random Schwartz distributions which has been the…
Twisted quantum field theories on the Groenewold-Moyal plane are known to be non-local. Despite this non-locality, it is possible to define a generalized notion of causality. We show that interacting quantum field theories that involve only…
We develop real Paley-Wiener theorems for classes ${\mathcal S}_\omega$ of ultradifferentiable functions and related $L^{p}$-spaces in the spirit of Bang and Andersen for the Schwartz class. We introduce results of this type for the…
We present new types of regularity for nonlinear generalized functions, based on the notion of regular growth with respect to the regularizing parameter of Colombeau's simplified model. This generalizes the notion of G^{\infty }-regularity…
We prove a characterization of the Sobolev spaces $H^\alpha$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$, where the smoothness index $\alpha$ is any positive real number and $d\geq 2$. This characterization does not use differentiation and it is…
We use the extension problem proposed by Caffarelli and Silvestre to study the quantization of a scalar nonlocal quantum field theory built out of the fractional Laplacian. We show that the quantum behavior of such a nonlocal field theory…
We derive an action for scalar quantum field theory with cubic interaction in the context of relative locality. Beginning with the generating functional for standard $\varphi^3$--theory and the corresponding Feynman rules we modify them to…
We prove that the Gelfand-Shilov spaces $S^\beta_\alpha$ are topological algebras under the Moyal star product if and only if $\alpha\ge\beta$. These spaces of test functions can be used in quantum field theory on noncommutative spacetime.…
We define Schwartz functions, tempered functions and tempered distributions on (possibly singular) real algebraic varieties. We prove that all classical properties of these spaces, defined previously on affine spaces and on Nash manifolds,…
We recast into histories-based form a quantum field theory defined earlier in operator language for a free scalar field on a background causal set. The resulting decoherence-functional resembles that of the continuum theory. The counterpart…
We describe a very general (nonlinear) Fredholm theory for a new class of ambient spaces, called polyfolds. The basic feature of these new spaces is that in general they may have locally varying dimensions. These new spaces are needed for a…
In our previous articles "A local Paley-Wiener theorem for compact symmetric spaces", Adv. Math. 218 (2008), 202--215, and "Fourier series on compact symmetric spaces" (submitted) we studied Fourier series on a compact symmetric space…
Quantum gravity effects of zeroth order in the Planck constant are investigated in the framework of the low-energy effective theory. A special emphasis is placed on establishing the correspondence between classical and quantum theories, for…
We consider a broad family of test function spaces and their dual (distribution) space. The family includes Gelfand-Shilov spaces, a family of test function spaces introduced by S. Pilipovic. We deduce different characterizations of such…
We construct an algebra of generalized functions endowed with a canonical embedding of the space of Schwartz distributions. We offer a solution to the problem of multiplication of Schwartz distributions similar to but different from…
The main purpose of this paper is to derive a new perturbation theory (PT) that has converging series. Such series arise in the nonlocal scalar quantum field theory (QFT) with fractional power potential. We construct PT for the generating…
The $\Theta$-spherical functions generalize the spherical functions on Riemannian symmetric spaces and the spherical functions on non-compactly causal symmetric spaces. In this article we consider the case of even multiplicity functions. We…
