The quantum structure of Spacetime at the Planck scale suggests the use, in defining interactions between fields, of the Quantum Wick product. The resulting theory is ultraviolet finite, but subject to an adiabatic cutoff in time which…
A general model is proposed for time-varying coupling constants in field theory, assuming the ultraviolet cutoff is a varying entity in the expanding universe. It is assumed that the cutoff depends on the scale factor of the universe and…
We consider a scalar quantum field theory, in which the interaction takes the form of a field cutoff; the energy diverges to infinity whenever the value of the field at some point falls outside a finite interval. In a simple…
We discuss the dynamical situation which arises in a local quantum field theory after renormalization. By using the example of the three-dimensional theory of a neutral scalar field interacting through the quartic coupling, we show that…
Inflationary predictions based on the linear theory of cosmological perturbations are related to the two point function of a (second quantized) real scalar free field during the accelerated stage. Such a two point function is finite, in…
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…
We study properties of a scalar quantum field theory on two-dimensional noncommutative space-times. Contrary to the common belief that noncommutativity of space-time would be a key to remove the ultraviolet divergences, we show that field…
We explore phenomenological consequences of coupling a non-conformal scale-invariant theory to the standard model. We point out that, under certain circumstances, non-conformal scale-invariant theories have oscillating correlation functions…
We formulated a field theory in space-time elements, which are obtained by dividing the space-time continuum into arbitrary-shaped space-time elements, such as hyper-octahedra (orthoplexes), which are aligned locally periodically, without…
A consistent theory, which describes the incoherent scattering of classically moving relativistic particles by the nuclei of crystal planes without any phenomenological parameter is presented. The basic notions of quantum mechanics are…
We incorporate the concept of dimensional reduction at high energies within the perturbative formulation of quantum field theory. In this new framework, space and momentum integrations are modified by a weighting function incorporating an…
The need for a cutoff in the Lamb shift calculation suggests that high-energy virtual photons do not interact with real particles. In this paper, we assume that the creation of high-energy virtual particles is suppressed by a Boltzmann…
We study a consistent infrared and ultraviolet regularization scheme for the cosmological perturbations. The infrared divergences are cured by assuming that the Universe undergoes a transition between a non-singular pre-inflationary,…
We analyze critically the renormalization of quantum fields in cosmological spacetimes, using non covariant ultraviolet cutoffs. We compute explicitly the counterterms necessary to renormalize the semiclassical Einstein equations, using…
The construction of quantum field theory (QFT) of a free massive scalar field with respect to a general congruence of observers is considered, the splitting into positive- and negative-frequency modes being defined by diagonalization of the…
We propose a method for determining ultra-violet divergences in the vacuum energy for systems whose spectrum of perturbations is defined through a non-linear spectrum problem, i.e, when the fluctuation operator itself depends on the…
We consider a radiation from a uniformly accelerating harmonic oscillator whose minimal coupling to the scalar field changes suddenly. The exact time evolutions of the quantum operators are given in terms of a classical solution of a forced…
Standard perturbation theory (SPT) for large-scale matter inhomogeneities is unsatisfactory for at least three reasons: there is no clear expansion parameter since the density contrast is not small on all scales; it does not fully account…
We study a simple model for which perturbation theory gives ultravioletly divergent results. We show that when the eigen-solution problem of the Hamiltonian of the model is treated nonperturbatively, it is possible for eigenenergies of the…
We identify universal properties of the low-energy subspace of a wide class of quantum optical models in the ultrastrong coupling limit, where the coupling strength dominates over all other energy scales in the system. We show that the…
