We construct the causal (forward/backward) propagators for the massive Klein-Gordon equation perturbed by a first order operator which decays in space but not necessarily in time. In particular, we obtain global estimates for…

The discrete Klein-Gordon equation on a two-dimensional square lattice satisfies an $\ell^1 \mapsto \ell^\infty$ dispersive bound with polynomial decay rate $|t|^{-3/4}$. We determine the shape of the light cone for any choice of the mass…

It is hypothesized that de Broglie's 'matter waves' provide a dynamical basis for Minkowski spacetime in an antisubstantivalist or relational account. The relativity of simultaneity is seen as an effect of the de Broglie oscillation…

We seek to introduce a mathematical method to derive the Klein-Gordon equation and a set of relevant laws strictly, which combines the relativistic wave functions in two inertial frames of reference. If we define the stationary state wave…

Using the Caldirola-Kanai Hamiltonian, we study the time evolution of the wave function of a particle whose classical motion is governed by the Langevin equation. We show, in particular, that if the initial wave function is Gaussian, then…
