We implement the worldline formalism in phase space to compute scattering amplitudes. First, the Feynman rules exhibit several useful universal features, reflecting elements of the symplectic geometry of the phase space target. Next,…
We prove local unique solvability of the wave equation for a large class of weakly singular, locally bounded space-time metrics in a suitable space of generalised functions.
A combination of some weighted energy estimates is applied for the Cauchy problem of quasilinear wave equations with the standard null conditions in three spatial dimensions. Alternative proofs for global solutions are shown including the…
We give explicit real-analytic functions whose zero sets characterize the images of the standard maps of wave-front singularities. Such functions are realizations of the main-analytic sets in the sense of Ishikawa-Koike-Shiota (1984). More…
The numerical treatment of quantum mechanics in the semi-classical regime is known to be computationally demanding, due to the highly oscillatory behaviour of the wave function and its large spatial extension. A recently proposed…

We study certain families of oscillatory integrals $I_\varphi(a)$, parametrised by phase functions $\varphi$ and amplitude functions $a$ globally defined on $\mathbb{R}^d$, which give rise to tempered distributions, avoiding the standard…
Causal Dynamical Triangulations in four dimensions provide a background-independent definition of the sum over space-time geometries in nonperturbative quantum gravity. We show that the macroscopic four-dimensional world which emerges in…

Semiclassical quantization is exact only for the so called \emph{solvable} potentials, such as the harmonic oscillator. In the \emph{nonsolvable} case the semiclassical phase, given by a series in $\hbar$, yields more or less approximate…
In the present paper we consider global solutions of a class of non-linear wave equations of the form \begin{equation*} \Box u= N(x,t,u)u, \end{equation*} where the nonlinearity~$ N(x,t,u)u$ is assumed to satisfy appropriate boundedness…
A new formulation of potential scattering in quantum mechanics is developed using a close structural analogy between partial waves and the classical dynamics of many non-interacting fields. Using a canonical formalism we find non-linear…
We prove rigorously factorization in the seminclusive decay $B\to D^{(*)} + jet$ using the large energy effective theory. It is also shown that this effective theory is unable to consistently describe completely exclusive processes, such as…
We prove the nonexistence of two-dimensional solitary gravity water waves with subcritical wave speeds and an arbitrary distribution of vorticity. This is a longstanding open problem, and even in the irrotational case there are only partial…
In a recent letter we suggested a natural generalization of the flat-space spinor-helicity formalism in four dimensions to anti-de Sitter space. In the present paper we give some technical details that were left implicit previously. For…
Due to the chiral nature of the Dirac equation, overlying of an electrical superlattice (SL) can open new Dirac points on the Fermi-surface of the energy spectrum. These lead to novel low-excitation physical phenomena. A typical example for…
We study the behavior of solitary-wave solutions of some generalized nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with an external potential. The equations have the feature that in the absence of the external potential, they have solutions describing…
We are interested in the "almost" global-in-time existence of classical solutions in the general theory for nonlinear wave equations. All the three such cases are known to be sharp due to blow-up results in the critical case for model…
We show that real polarization method can be effectively used to geometrically quantize physical systems with compact phase space, like the spin. Our method enables us to construct a wave function of a qubit in both position and momentum…
Signal analysis is built upon various resolutions of the identity in signal vector spaces, e.g. Fourier, Gabor, wavelets, etc. Similar resolutions are used as quantizers of functions or distributions, paving the way to a time-frequency or…
