Hadamard states were originally introduced for quantised Klein-Gordon fields and occupy a central position in the theory of quantum fields on curved spacetimes. Subsequently they have been developed for other linear theories, such as the…
The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of Hadamard states for Dirac fields coupled with MIT boundary conditions on any globally hyperbolic manifold with timelike boundary. This is achieved by introducing a geometric M{\o}ller…
The Proca field describes a massive relativistic spin-$1$ particle and was originally formulated in Minkowski spacetime. Here we consider a variety of generalizations in globally hyperbolic spacetimes, including couplings between a number…
Given a pair of normally hyperbolic operators over (possibily different) globally hyperbolic spacetimes on a given smooth manifold, the existence of a geometric isomorphism, called {\em M{\o}ller operator}, between the space of solutions is…
Free field theories on a four dimensional, globally hyperbolic spacetime, whose dynamics is ruled by a Green hyperbolic partial differential operator, can be quantized following the algebraic approach. It consists of a two-step procedure:…
We develop a quantization scheme for the vector potential on globally hyperbolic spacetimes which realizes it as a locally covariant conformal quantum field theory. This result allows us to employ on a large class of backgrounds, which are…
We consider real scalar field theories whose dynamics is ruled by normally hyperbolic operators differing only by a smooth potential $V$. By means of an extension of the standard definition of M{\o}ller operator, we construct an isomorphism…
Quasifree states of a linear Klein-Gordon quantum field on globally hyperbolic spacetime manifolds are considered. Using techniques from the theory of pseudodifferential operators and wavefront sets on manifolds a criterion for a state to…
Some years ago, Radzikowski has found a characterization of Hadamard states for scalar quantum fields on a four-dimensional globally hyperbolic spacetime in terms of a specific form of the wavefront set of their two-point functions (termed…
Within this chapter (published as [49]) we introduce the overall idea of the algebraic formalism of QFT on a fixed globally hyperbolic spacetime in the framework of unital $*$-algebras. We point out some general features of CCR algebras,…
In this paper we propose a definition of quasifree Hadamard states for spinor fields on a curved space-time by specifying the Polarisation Set of the two-point function. We prove that the thermal equilibrium state on an ultrastatic…
We consider a region of Minkowski spacetime bounded either by one or by two parallel, infinitely extended plates orthogonal to a spatial direction and a real Klein-Gordon field satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions. We quantize these two…
We review the mathematically rigorous formulation of the quantum theory of a linear field propagating in a globally hyperbolic spacetime. This formulation is accomplished via the algebraic approach, which, in essence, simultaneously admits…
We discuss the algebraic quantization of a real, massive scalar field in the Poincar\'e patch of the (d+1)-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime, with arbitrary boundary conditions. By using the functional formalism, we show that it is…
We give a new construction based on pseudo-differential calculus of quasi-free Hadamard states for Klein-Gordon equations on a class of space-times whose metric is well-behaved at spatial infinity. In particular we construct all pure…
We give an introduction to the techniques from microlocal analysis that have successfully been applied in the investigation of Hadamard states of free quantum field theories on curved spacetimes. The calculation of the wave front set of the…
According to Radzikowski's celebrated results, bisolutions of a wave operator on a globally hyperbolic spacetime are of Hadamard form iff they are given by a linear combination of distinguished parametrices…
Afshordi, Aslanbeigi and Sorkin have recently proposed a construction of a distinguished "S-J state" for scalar field theory in (bounded regions of) general curved spacetimes. We establish rigorously that the proposal is well-defined on…
The space of continuous states of perturbative interacting quantum field theories in globally hyperbolic curved spacetimes is determined. Following Brunetti and Fredenhagen, we first define an abstract algebra of observables which contains…
We provide a deformation quantization, in the sense of Rieffel, for \textit{all} globally hyperbolic spacetimes with a Poisson structure. The Poisson structures have to satisfy Fedosov type requirements in order for the deformed product to…
