I argue that the linearity of quantum mechanics is an emergent feature at the Planck scale, along with the manifold structure of space-time. In this regime the usual causality violation objections to nonlinearity do not apply, and nonlinear…

We study the localization aspects of a kicked non-interacting one-dimensional (1D) quantum system subject to either time-periodic or non-periodic pulses. These are reflected as sudden changes of the onsite energies in the lattice with…
The classical limit of quantum q-oscillators suggests an interpretation of the deformation as a way to introduce non linearity. Guided by this idea, we considered q-fields, the partition fumction, and compute a consequence on specific heat…
Nonlinearity of electromagnetic field vibrations described by q-oscillators is shown to produce essential dependence of second correlation functions on intensity and deformation of Planck distribution. Experimental tests of such…
