A generalized canonical formulation of the theory of the electromagnetic Fokker interaction for a system of two particles is proposed. The functional integral on the generalized phase space is defined as the initial one in quantum theory.…

We consider the scalar wave equation in the Kerr geometry for Cauchy data which is smooth and compactly supported outside the event horizon. We derive an integral representation which expresses the solution as a superposition of solutions…

Let g be a scattering metric on a compact manifold X with boundary, i.e., a smooth metric giving the interior of X the structure of a complete Riemannian manifold with asymptotically conic ends. An example is any compactly supported…

We propose a new rigorous time-slicing construction of the phase space Path Integrals for propagators both in Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory for a fairly general class of quantum observables (e.g. the Schroedinger hamiltonians…

The paper gives a symplectic-geometric account of semiclassical Gaussian wave packet dynamics. We employ geometric techniques to "strip away" the symplectic structure behind the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation and incorporate it into…

Starting from Feynman's Lagrangian description of quantum mechanics, we propose a method to construct explicitly the propagator for the Wigner distribution function of a single system. For general quadratic Lagrangians, only the classical…

For simple Lie groups, the only homogeneous manifolds $G/K$, where $K$ is maximal compact subgroup,for which the phase of the scalar product of two coherent state vectors is twice the symplectic area of a geodesic triangle are the hermitian…

In the framework of time-dependent geometric scattering theory, we study the existence and completeness of the wave operators for perturbations of the Riemannian metric for the Laplacian on a complete manifold of dimension $n$. The…

The Hamiltonian operator describing a quantum particle on a path often extends holomorphically to a complex neighborhood of the path. When it does, it can be seen as the local expression of a complex projective structure, and its…

Focus of this study is to explore some aspects of mathematical foundations for using complex manifolds as a model for space-time. More specifically, certain equations of motions have been derived as a Projective geodesic on a real manifold…

The harmonic oscillator propagator is found straightforwardly from the free particle propagator, within the imaginary-time Feynman path integral formalism. The derivation presented here is extremely simple, requiring only elementary…

Excitation of waves in a three-layer acoustic wavegide is studied. The wave field is presented as a sum of integrals. The summation is held over all waveguide modes. The integration is performed over the temporal frequency axis. The…

We construct the graviton propagator in $n$-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime in the most general covariant gauge. We then study the behaviour of this propagator for different values of the gauge parameters. We will show that in any…

This work considers aspects of almost holomorphic and meromorphic Siegel modular forms from the perspective of physics and mathematics. The first part is concerned with (refined) topological string theory and the direct integration of the…

In this paper, the deformation of the Heisenberg algebra, consistent with both the generalized uncertainty principle and doubly special relativity, has been analyzed. It has been observed that, though this algebra can give rise to…

Exploring the concept of the extended Galilei group $\mathcal{G}$, a representation for the symplectic quantum mechanics in the manifold of $\mathcal{G}$, written in the light-cone of a five-dimensional De Sitter space-time, is derived…

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…

We propose an efficient finite-element analysis of the vector wave equation in a class of relatively general curved polygons. The proposed method is suitable for an accurate and efficient calculation of the propagation constants of…

A quantum mechanical description of particle propagation on the discrete spacetime of a causal set is presented. The model involves a discrete path integral in which trajectories within the causal set are summed over to obtain a particle…

We investigate the geometrical features of one-dimensional wave propagation, whose dynamics is described by the (2+1)-dimensional Lorentz group. We find many interesting geometrical ingredients such as spinorlike behavior of wave…
