We study new Legendre transforms in classical mechanics and investigate some of their general properties. The behaviour of the new functions is analyzed under coordinate transformations.When invariance under different kinds of…
We introduce configuration space path integrals for quantum fields interacting with classical fields. We show that this can be done consistently by proving that the dynamics are completely positive directly, without resorting to master…
Dequantization is a set of rules which turn quantum mechanics (QM) into classical mechanics (CM). It is not the WKB limit of QM. In this paper we show that, by extending time to a 3-dimensional "supertime", we can dequantize the system in…
We review and give elementary proofs of Liouville type properties of harmonic and subharmonic functions in the plane endowed with a complete Riemannian metric, and prove a gap theorem for the possible growth of harmonic functions when this…
The present paper is a continuation of our work [11], where we introduced a fractional operator calculus related to a fractional ${\psi}-$Fueter operator in the one-dimensional Riemann-Liouville derivative sense in each direction of the…
The Functional Machine Calculus (FMC), recently introduced by the authors, is a generalization of the lambda-calculus which may faithfully encode the effects of higher-order mutable store, I/O and probabilistic/non-deterministic input.…
In section.1 the objectivity in science is presented shortly. In section.2 some details concerning the objectivity in the case of the mechanical movement description of a material particle are given. In section.3 details concerning the…
We discuss classical and quantum computations in terms of corresponding Hamiltonian dynamics. This allows us to introduce quantum computations which involve parallel processing of both: the data and programme instructions. Using mixed…
The basic mathematical assumptions for autonomous linear kinetic equations for a classical system are formulated, leading to the conclusion that if they are differential equations on its phase space $M$, they are at most of the 2nd order.…
In this paper we study the symmetry known as mechanical similarity (LMS) and present for any monomial potential. We analyze it in the framework of the Koopman-von Neumann formulation of classical mechanics and prove that in this framework…
The aim of the present text is twofold: to provide a compendium of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian geometries and to introduce and investigate new analytical Mechanics: Finslerian, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian. The fundamental equations (or…
In arXiv:0905.1675, Nik Weaver proposed a novel intuitionistic formal theory of third-order arithmetic as a formalisation of his philosophical position known as mathematical conceptualism. In this paper, we will construct a realisability…
Recently, some problems have been found in the definition of the partial derivative in the case of the presence of both explicit and implicit functional dependencies in the classical analysis. In this talk we investigate the influence of…
We derive a class of variational functionals which arise naturally in conformal geometry. In the special case when the Riemannian manifold is locally conformal flat, the functional coincides with the well studied functional which is the…
We propose a phase-space path integral formulation of noncommutative quantum mechanics, and prove its equivalence to the operatorial formulation. As an illustration, the partition function of a noncommutative two-dimensional harmonic…
Classical mechanics involves position and momentum variables that must be special coordinates chosen to promote to suitable quantum operators. Since classical variables may be broadly chosen, only unique variables should be chosen. We will…
The geometric construction of the functional integral over coset spaces ${\cal M}/{\cal G}$ is reviewed. The inner product on the cotangent space of infinitesimal deformations of $\cal M$ defines an invariant distance and volume form, or…
Nelson's stochastic mechanics links quantum mechanics to an underlying Brownian motion with the identification $\hbar = m\sigma$. Ghose's interpolating equation introduces a continuous parameter $\lambda$ that suppresses the quantum…
A non--commutative analogue of the classical differential forms is constructed on the phase--space of an arbitrary quantum system. The non--commutative forms are universal and are related to the quantum mechanical dynamics in the same way…
Functional methods can be applied to the quantum effective action to efficiently determine counterterms and matching conditions for effective field theories. We extend the toolbox to two-loop order and beyond and show how to evaluate the…
