We study the total particle current fluctuations in a one-dimensional stochastic system of classical particles consisting of branching and death processes which is a variant of asymmetric zero-temperature Glauber dynamics. The full spectrum…

We prove that on compact Alexandrov spaces with curvature bounded below the gradient flow of the Dirichlet energy in the $L^2$-space produces the same evolution as the gradient flow of the relative entropy in the $L^2$-Wasserstein space.…

The spinfoam framework is a proposal for a regularized path integral for quantum gravity. Spinfoams define quantum space-time structures describing the evolution in time of the spin network states for quantum geometry derived from Loop…

The holographic principle suggests that regions of space contain fewer physical degrees of freedom than would be implied by conventional quantum field theory. Meanwhile, in Hilbert spaces of large dimension $2^n$, it is possible to define…

In this article we consider two classical problems in Quantum Mechanics, namely the 'particle on a ring' and the 'particle in a box' from the viewpoint of symplectic topology. Interpreting the solutions of the corresponding time independent…

A complete quantization of a homogeneous and isotropic spacetime with closed spatial sections coupled to a massive scalar field is provided, within the framework of Loop Quantum Cosmology. We identify solutions with their initial data on…

Here we prove that for each Hamiltonian function $H\in \mathcal{C}^\infty(\mathbb{R}^4, \mathbb{R})$ defined on the standard symplectic $(\mathbb{R}^4, \omega_0)$, for which $M:=H^{-1}(0)$ is a non-empty compact regular energy level, the…

We find the Holographic Renormalization Group equations for the holographic duals of generic gravity theories coupled to form fields and spin-1/2 fermions. Using Hamilton-Jacobi theory we discuss the structure of Ward identities, anomalies,…

Following a question of F. Le Roux, we consider a system of invariants $l_A : H_1(M; \mathbb{Z})\to\mathbb{R}$ of a symplectic surface $M$. These invariants compute the minimal Hofer energy needed to translate a disk of area $A$ along a…

We consider a charged quantum particle immersed in an axial magnetic field, comprising a local Aharonov-Bohm singularity and a regular perturbation. Quadratic form techniques are used to characterize different self-adjoint realizations of…

We continue the study initiated in [arXiv:1708.02252] of the fluctuations of a strongly-coupled non-conformal plasma described holographically by Einstein gravity coupled to a dilaton with an exponential potential. The plasma approaches a…

The vacuum transition probabilities for a Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker universe with positive curvature in Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity in the presence of a scalar field potential in the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin approximation are…

In this paper we show that the topological closure of the holonomy group of a certain class of projectively flat Finsler 2-manifolds of constant curvature is maximal, that is isomorphic to the connected component of the diffeomorphism group…

We study cosmological perturbations in Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz Gravity. We consider scalar metric fluctuations about a homogeneous and isotropic space-time. Starting from the most general metric, we work out the complete second order action for…

We formulate a non-relativistic quantum field theory to model interactions between quantized electromagnetic fields and localized charge-current distributions. The electronic degrees of freedom are encoded in microscopic polarization and…

We briefly show how we can obtain Hamiltonians for spatially compact locally homogeneous vacuum spacetimes. The dynamical variables are categorized into the curvature parameters and the Teichm\"{u}ller parameters. While the Teichm\"{u}ller…

We construct an effective cosmological spin-foam model for a (2+1) dimensional spatially flat universe, discretized on a hypercubical lattice, containing both space- and time-like regions. Our starting point is the recently proposed…

Finding diffeomorphism-invariant observables to characterize the properties of gravity and spacetime at the Planck scale is essential for making progress in quantum gravity. The holonomy and Wilson loop of the Levi-Civita connection are…

A quantum stochastic differential equation (qsde) on Fock space over $L^2$ differential 1-forms is given from the small "time" flow of which the trace of the connection Laplacian heat kernel for the spinor endomorphism bundle can be…

We consider a linear phonon Boltzmann equation with a reflecting/transmitting/absorbing interface. This equation appears as the Boltzmann-Grad limit for the energy density function of a harmonic chain of oscillators with inter-particle…
