A class of two-dimensional superintegrable systems on a constant curvature surface is considered as the natural generalization of some well known one-dimensional factorized systems. By using standard methods to find the shape-invariant…
Factorization -- a simple form of standardization -- is concerned with reduction strategies, i.e. how a result is computed. We present a new technique for proving factorization theorems for compound rewriting systems in a modular way, which…
The question is raised whether the unique decomposition of the physical Hilbert space, as emerging in the refined algebraic quantization of a constrained system, may be understood in terms of the old Klein-Gordon type quantization.
The literature on the exponential Fourier approach to the one-dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator problem is revised and criticized. It is shown that the solution of this problem has been built on faulty premises. The problem is…
We study processes with unstable particles in intermediate time-like states. It is shown that the amplitudes squared of such processes factor exactly in the framework of the model of unstable particles with continuous masses. Decay widths…
We discuss an alternative method to mass renormalize a quantum field Hamiltonian based on a requirement that the vacuum and single-particle sectors are not self-scattering. We illustrate the feasibility of this method for the concrete…

Functional integrals are central to modern theories ranging from quantum mechanics and statistical thermodynamics to biology, chemistry, and finance. In this work we present a new method for calculating functional integrals based on a…
Hartle and Srednicki have suggested that standard quantum theory does not favor our typicality. Here an alternative version is proposed in which typicality is likely, Eventual Quantum Mechanics. This version allows one to calculate…
Achieving an accurate description of fermionic systems typically requires considerably many more orbitals than fermions. Previous resource analyses of quantum chemistry simulation often failed to exploit this low fermionic number…
This Review is devoted to the presentation of the exact factorization as a framework employed to study a variety of quantum-mechanical many-body problems. Since its original formulation in the 70s, the main applications of the exact…
Algebraic quantization has been applied on the class of globally hyperbolic spacetime for many decades, leading to remarkable results. Nonetheless, the presence of a boundary calls for a separate treatment, since, in general, it breaks…
