We analyse the dynamics of expectation values of quantum observables for the time-dependent semiclassical Schr\"odinger equation. To benefit from the positivity of Husimi functions, we switch between observables obtained from Weyl and…
Resumming quantum fluctuations at the level of the gravitational path integral is expected to result in non-local effective actions and thus in a non-trivial momentum dependence of the propagator. Which properties the (dressed) graviton…
We discuss the chirally symmetric solution of the massless, quenched, Dyson-Schwinger equation for the fermion propagator in three and four dimensions. The solutions are manifestly gauge covariant. We consider a gauge covariance constraint…
The time dependence of one-dimensional quantum mechanical probability densities is presented when the potential in which a particle moves is suddenly changed, called a quench. Quantum quenches are mainly addressed but a comparison with…
The master equation describing non-equilibrium one-dimensional problems like diffusion limited reactions or critical dynamics of classical spin systems can be written as a Schr\"odinger equation in which the wave function is the probability…

In this paper we consider an inverse problem for the $n$-dimensional random Schr\"{o}dinger equation $(\Delta-q+k^2)u = 0$. We study the scattering of plane waves in the presence of a potential $q$ which is assumed to be a Gaussian random…
We show that two distinct quantum states of the electromagnetic field can be associated to a classical vector X wave or a propagation-invariant solution of Maxwell equations. The difference between the two states is of pure quantum…
We determine the position space fermion propagator in three dimensional QED based on Ward-identity and spectral representation.There is a new type of mass singularity which governs the long distance behaviour.It leads the propagator vanish…
We study the graviton propagator in euclidean loop quantum gravity, using the spinfoam formalism. We use boundary-amplitude and group-field-theory techniques, and compute one component of the propagator to first order, under a number of…
We carry out the canonical quantization of the electromagnetic field in arbitrary $\xi$-gauge and compute its propagator. In this way we fill a gap in the literature and clarify some existing confusion about Feynman $i\epsilon$ prescription…
We study propagation of phase space singularities for a Schr\"odinger equation with a Hamiltonian that is the Weyl quantization of a quadratic form with non-negative real part. Phase space singularities are measured by the lack of…
We obtain generally covariant operator-valued geodesic equations on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold $M$ as part of the construction of quantum geodesics on the algebra $D(M)$ of differential operators. Geodesic motion arises here as an…
We exhibit a purely quantum mechanical carrier of the imprints of gravitation by identifying for a relativistic system a property which (i) is independent of its mass and (ii) expresses the Poincare invariance of spacetime in the absence of…
In this paper we apply the formalism of the analytical signal theory to the Schrodinger wavefunction. Making use exclusively of the wave-particle duality and the principle of relativistic covariance, we actually derive the form of the…
Feynman's i-epsilon prescription for quantum field theoretic propagators has a quite natural reinterpretation in terms of a slight complex deformation of the Minkowski spacetime metric. Though originally a strictly flat-space result, once…
For the $1+1$ dimensional damped stochastic Klein-Gordon equation, we show that random singularities associated with the law of the iterated logarithm exist and propogate in the same way as the stochastic wave equation. This provides…
It is showed that, in general, classical and quantum dispersion relations are different due to the presence of the Bohm potential. There are exact particular solutions of the quantum (wave) theory which obey the classical dispersion…
We prove some abstract Wegner bounds for random self-adjoint operators. Applications include elementary proofs of Wegner estimates for discrete and continuous Anderson Hamiltonians with possibly sparse potentials, as well as Wegner bounds…
A contradiction arises when applying standard boundary conditions to a simple quantum rotator with a single coordinate. New boundary conditions for the Schroedinger equation are proposed that involve only gauge invariant quantities, and…
