We use the Tomonaga-Schwinger (TS) formulation of quantum field theory to determine when state-dependent additions to the local Hamiltonian density (i.e., modifications to linear Schrodinger evolution) violate relativistic covariance. We…

Classical results concerning Klein-Gordon-Maxwell type systems are shortly reviewed and generalized to the setting of mixed local-nonlocal operators, where the nonlocal one is allowed to be nonpositive definite according to a real…
Information-theoretic arguments are used to obtain a link between the accurate linearity of Schrodinger's equation and Lorentz invariance: A possible violation of the latter at short distances would imply the appearance of nonlinear…
