When four-dimensional general relativity is embedded in an unconstrained man-ner in a fifth dimension, the physical quantities of spacetime can be interpreted as geometrical properties related to the extra dimension. It has become…
The recently introduced reconciliation of the theories of special relativity and wave mechanics implies that the mass-energy equivalence principle must be expressed mathematically as H = mv^2, where H is the total energy of a particle, m is…
Many recursive functions can be defined elegantly as the unique homomorphisms, between two algebras, two coalgebras, or one each, that are induced by some universal property of a distinguished structure. Besides the well-known applications…
Projective geometry provides the preferred framework for most implementations of Euclidean space in graphics applications. Translations and rotations are both linear transformations in projective geometry, which helps when it comes to…
The relativistic hydrogen atom in an Euclidean space-time of arbitrary number of space dimensions ($D$) plus one time dimension is revisited. In particular, numerical solutions of the radial Dirac equation for a generalized Coulombian…
We consider the noncommutative algebra which is rotationally invariant. The hydrogen atom is studied in a rotationally invariant noncommutative space. We find the corrections to the energy levels of the hydrogen atom up to the second order…
We extend the usual Kustaanheimo-Stiefel $4D\to 3D$ mapping to study and discuss a constrained super-Wigner oscillator in four dimensions. We show that the physical hydrogen atom is the system that emerges in the bosonic sector of the…
Geometric algebra is the natural outgrowth of the concept of a vector and the addition of vectors. After reviewing the properties of the addition of vectors, a multiplication of vectors is introduced in such a way that it encodes the famous…
The capabilities of the functional-analytic and of the functional-integral approach for the construction of the Hamiltonian as a self-adjoint operator on Hilbert space are compared in the context of non-relativistic quantum mechanics.…
The Rydberg formula along with the Ritz quantum defect ansatz has been a standard theoretical tool used in atomic physics since before the advent of quantum mechanics, yet this approach has remained limited by its non-relativistic…
There are significant differences between Helmholtz and Hodge's decomposition theorems, but both share a common flavor. This paper is a first step to bring them together. We here produce Helmholtz theorems for differential 1-forms and…
We present a Hilbert space perspective to homogenization of standard linear evolutionary boundary value problems in mathematical physics and provide a unified treatment for (non-)periodic homogenization problems in thermodynamics,…
The properties of the effective sigma-model for D-dimensional Einstein gravity based on multidimensional geometries is analyzed. Besides pure geometry, additional minimally coupled scalars and (p+2)-forms are considered which yield an…
We show that classical thermodynamics has a formulation in terms of Hamilton-Jacobi theory, analogous to mechanics. Even though the thermodynamic variables come in conjugate pairs such as pressure/volume or temperature/entropy, the phase…
A hard hadron-collider event is treated here as a single geometric object - the kinematics and the discrete object-type labels of all reconstructed final-state particles encoded in one multivector $\evMV\in\Cl(1,3)\otimes\Vflav$ - rather…
We note that presenting Hydrogen atom Schrodinger equation in the case of arbitrary dimensions require simultaneous modification of the Coulomb potential that only in three dimensions has the form Z/r . This was not done in a number of…
The purely algebraic technique associated with the creation and annihilation operators to resolve the radial equation of Hydrogen-like atoms (HLA) for generating the bound energy spectrum and the corresponding wave functions is suitable for…
A new gauge theory of gravity is presented. The theory is constructed in a flat background spacetime and employs gauge fields to ensure that all relations between physical quantities are independent of the positions and orientations of the…
