Applications of a method recently suggested by one of the authors (R.L.) are presented. This method is based on the use of dimensional recurrence relations and analytic properties of Feynman integrals as functions of the parameter of…
This work presents exact solutions of the Kemmer equation for spin-1 particles in $(1+1)$-dimensional Rindler spacetime, motivated by the need to understand vector bosons under uniform acceleration, including non-inertial effects and the…
We calculate the fermion propagator in FLRW spacetimes with constant deceleration $q=\epsilon-1$, $\epsilon=-\dot{H}/H^{2}$ for excited states. For fermions whose mass is generated by a scalar field through a Yukawa coupling…
In this work we study the Dirac equation on the cosmic string background, which models a one--dimensional topological defect in the spacetime. We first define the Dirac operator in this setting, classifying all of its selfadjoint…
We comment on the algorithm to compute periods using hyperlogarithms, applied to massless Feynman integrals in the parametric representation. Explicitly, we give results for all three-loop propagators with arbitrary insertions including…
The (Feynman) propagator $G(x_2,x_1)$ encodes the entire dynamics of a massive, free scalar field propagating in an arbitrary curved spacetime. The usual procedures for computing the propagator -- either as a time ordered correlator or from…
An efficient way to calculate one-loop counterterms within the Feynman diagrammatic approach and dimensional regularization is to expand the propagators in the integrands of the Feynman integrals around vanishing external momentum. In this…
When employing Feynman path integrals to compute propagators in quantum physics, the concept of summing over the set of all paths is not always naive. In fact, an auxiliary phase often has to be included as a weight for each summand. In…
A covariant quantization of the free spinor fields (s=1/2) in 4-dimensional de Sitter (dS) space-time based on analyticity in the complexified pseudo-Riemanian manifold is presented. We define the Wigthman two-point function ${\cal…
Computing correlation functions in curved spacetime is central to both theoretical and experimental efforts, from precision cosmology to quantum simulations of strongly coupled systems. In anti-de Sitter (AdS) and de Sitter (dS) space, the…
New analytic formulas for one-loop three-point Feynman integrals in general space-time dimension ($d$) are presented in this paper. The calculations are performed at general configurations for internal masses and external momenta. The…
We construct the massive scalar propagator for planar gravitational wave backgrounds propagating on Minkowski space. We represent the propagator in terms of the Bessel's function of suitably deformed nonlocal distance functions, the…
This is the written version of a talk I gave at the 35th Symposium Ahrenshoop in Berlin, Germany, August 2002. It is an exposition of joint work with S. Doplicher, K. Fredenhagen, and Gh. Piacitelli [1]. The violation of unitarity found in…
We prove existence of propagators for a time dependent Schr\"odinger equation with a new class of softened Coulomb potentials, which we allow to be time dependent, in the context of time dependent density functional theory. We compute…
Relativistic spin-1/2 particles in curved spacetime are naturally described by Dirac theory, which is a dynamical and Lorentz-invariant field theory. In this work, we propose a non-dynamical fermion theory in 3+1 dimensions dubbed spinor…
This paper is devoted to the computation of discrete propagators in two-dimensional crystals and their application to a number of time dependent problems. The methods to compute such kernels are provided by a tight-binding representation of…
In this report, we reply to a recent comment by Carl M. Bender, Gregorio Benincasa and Hugh F. Jones on our work 'New ansatz for metric operator calculation in pseudo-Hermitian field theory (Phys. Rev. D. 79, 107702 (2009)). In fact, they…
Rotation symmetry is less constraining than space-time symmetry. The free electron propagator is a projection operator that we show can be constructed from rotation symmetric projection operators. Rotation-based identifications of time,…
We consider the massive Klein-Gordon equation on asymptotically Minkowski spacetimes, in the sense that the manifold is $R^{1+d}$ and the metric approaches that of Minkowski space at infinity in a short-range way (jointly in time and space…
We consider a five-dimensional Einstein--Cartan spacetime upon which Dirac spinor fields can be defined. Dirac spinor fields in five and four dimensions share many features, like the fact that both are described by four-component spinor…
