Different quantum Langevin equations obtained by coupling a particle to a field are examined. Instabilities or violations of causality affect the motion of a point charge linearly coupled to the electromagnetic field. In contrast, coupling…

The well known scaling of the Edwards-Wilkinson equation is essentially determined by dimensional analysis. Once a drift term is added, more sophisticated reasoning is required, which initially suggests that the drift term dominates over…

Suppose that a point-like steady source at $x=0$ injects particles into a half-infinite line. The particles diffuse and die. At long times a non-equilibrium steady state sets in, and we assume that it involves many particles. If the…

Quantum lattice models describe a wide array of physical systems, and are a canonical way to numerically solve the Schrodinger equation. Here we prove the potential inversion theorem, which says that wavefunction probability in these models…
Based on parity violation in the weak interaction and evidences from neutrino oscillation, a natural choice is that neutrinos may be spacelike particles with a tiny mass. To keep causality for spacelike particles, a kinematic time under a…
