We propose a physical interpretation of the perturbative breakdown of unitarity in time-like noncommutative field theories in terms of production of tachyonic particles. These particles may be viewed as a remnant of a continuous spectrum of…
Quantum field theory can be physically regularized by modularizing it on several levels of aggregation. Since computation is already thoroughly modularized, physical experiments are treated here as quantum relativistic cellular computations…

We show that the combinatorial numbers known as {\em Bell numbers} are generic in quantum physics. This is because they arise in the procedure known as {\em Normal ordering} of bosons, a procedure which is involved in the evaluation of…
We explore the possibility that the connection between spin and statistics in quantum physics is of dynamical origin. We suggest that the gravitational field could provide a fully local mechanism for the phase that arises when fermionic and…

Interacting systems of particles with generalized statistics are considered on both classical and quantum level. It is shown that all possible quantum states and corresponding processes can be represented in terms of certain specific…
We study conformal field theories describing two massless one-dimensional fields interacting at a single spatial point. The interactions we include are periodic functions of the bosonized fields separately plus a ``magnetic'' interaction…
A comprehensive input-output theory is developed for Fermionic input fields. Quantum stochastic differential equations are developed in both the Ito and Stratonovich forms. The major technical issue is the development of a formalism which…
We review the main ideas and results in the stationary problems of quantum chaos in generic (mixed) systems, whose classical dynamics has regular (invariant tori) and chaotic regions coexisting in the phase space. First we discuss the…
