The quantization rules recently proposed by M. Navarro (and independently I.V. Kanatchikov) for a finite-dimensional formulation of quantum field theory are applied to the Klein-Gordon and the Dirac fields to obtain the quantum equations of…
We propose a form for the action of a relativistic particle subject to a positional force that is invariant under time reparametrization and therefore allows for a consistent Hamiltonian formulation of the dynamics. This approach can be…
The massless Klein--Gordon equation on arbitrary curved backgrounds allows for solutions which develop "tails" inside the light cone and, therefore, do not strictly follow null geodesics as discovered by DeWitt and Brehme almost sixty years…
It is shown that the alternative Klein-Gordon equation with positive definite probability density proposed in a letter by M.D. Kostin does not meet the requirements of relativistic (quantum) field theory and therefore does not allow for a…
We propose the light-front Lagrangian and the corresponding Hamiltonian that produce a theory perturbatively equivalent to the conventional QCD in the Lorentz coordinates after the regularization is removed. The regularization used is…
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…
It is proved that no Hamiltonian exists for the real Klein-Gordon field used in the Yukawa interaction. The experimental side supports this conclusion.
We study the three-dimensional Dirac and Klein-Gordon equations with scalar and vector potentials of equal magnitudes as an attempt to give a proper physical interpretation of this class of problems which has recently been accumulating…
Modified Klein-Gordon-Fock equations were obtained on the basis of one-dimensional chaotic dynamics. The original Lagrangians were found. The concepts of \textit{m}-exponential map and groups with broken symmetry are introduced. A system of…
We address the question of ambiguity in defining a Hamiltonian for a scalar field. We point out that the Hamiltonian for a real Klein-Gordon scalar field must be consistent with the energy density obtained from the Schrodinger equation in…
We generalize the fractional variational problem by allowing the possibility that the lower bound in the fractional derivative does not coincide with the lower bound of the integral that is minimized. Also, for the standard case when these…
In a recent paper we demonstrated how the simplest model for varying alpha may be interpreted as the effect of a dielectric material, generalized to be consistent with Lorentz invariance. Unlike normal dielectrics, such a medium cannot…
We prove optimality conditions for generalized quantum variational problems with a Lagrangian depending on the free end-points. Problems of calculus of variations of this type cannot be solved using the classical theory.
The covariant Klein-Gordon equation requires twice the boundary conditions of the Schrodinger equation and does not have an accepted single-particle interpretation. Instead of interpreting its solution as a probability wave determined by an…
A system of coupled kinetic transport equations for the Wigner distributions of a free variable mass Klein-Gordon field is derived. This set of equations is formally equivalent to the full wave equation for electromagnetic waves in…
Theories of gravity in which the metric is fundamentally classical predict stochastic fluctuations in the gravitational field. In this article, we study the stochastic Klein-Gordon equation as a starting point to understand the…
A general variational principle of classical fields with a Lagrangian containing the field quantity and its derivatives of up to the N-th order is presented. Noether's theorem is derived. The generalized Hamilton-Jacobi's equation for the…
The effects, upon the Klein--Gordon field, of nonconformal stochastic metric fluctuations, are analyzed. It will be shown that these fluctuations allow us to consider an effective mass, i.e., the mass detected in a laboratory is not the…
