We study temporal correlations in interacting quantum systems through the influence functional of a half-infinite quantum Ising chain. Using R\'enyi entropies and temporal mutual information, we confirm that integrable dynamics is captured…
Inspired by the usefulness of local scaling of time in the path integral formalism, we introduce a new kind of hamiltonian path integral in this paper. A special case of this new type of path integral has been earlier found useful in…
The space-time light-cone Hamiltonian P^- of large-N matrix models for dynamical triangulations may be viewed as that of a quantum spin chain and analysed in a mean field approximation. As N -> infinity, the properties of the groundstate as…
Introducing a perturbative definition, phase space path integrals can be calculated without slicing. This leads to a short-time expansion of the quantum-mechanical path amplitude, or a high-temperature expansion of the unnormalized density…
We propose that cosmological time is {\it effectively} the conjugate of the constants of nature. Different definitions of time arise, with the most relevant related to the constant controlling the dynamics in each epoch. The Hamiltonian…
Discrete-time quantum walk in one-dimension is studied from a path-integral perspective. This enables derivation of a closed-form expression for amplitudes corresponding to any coin-position basis of the state vector of the quantum walker…
A path integral method, combined with atomistic spin dynamics simulations, has been developed to calculate thermal quantum expectation values using a classical approach. In this study, we show how to treat Hamiltonians with non-linear…
The path integral approach to quantum mechanics requires a substantial generalisation to describe the dynamics of systems confined to bounded domains. Non-local boundary conditions can be introduced in Feynman's approach by means of…
We present a numerical path-integral iteration scheme for the low dimensional reduced density matrix of a time-dependent quantum dissipative system. Our approach simultaneously accounts for the combined action of a microscopically modelled…
We consider Feynman's path integral approach to quantum mechanics with a noncommutativity in position and momentum sectors of the phase space. We show that a quantum-mechanical system with this kind of noncommutativity is equivalent to the…
From the integer quantum Hall effect, to swimming at low Reynolds number, geometric phases arise in the description of many different physical systems. In many of these systems the temporal evolution prescribed by the geometric phase can be…
The pulsar timing array (PTA) collaborations have recently reported compelling evidence for the presence of a stochastic signal consistent with a gravitational-wave background. In this letter, we combine the latest data sets from NANOGrav,…
The existence of an observer independent minimum length scale can lead to the modification of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to the generalized uncertainty principle. This in turn would be responsible for the modification of the…
A time-dependent completely integrable Hamiltonian system is quantized with respect to time-dependent action-angle variables near an instantly compact regular invariant manifold. Its Hamiltonian depends only on action variables, and has a…
Quantum mechanical phase space path integrals are re-examined with regard to the physical interpretation of the phase space variables involved. It is demonstrated that the traditional phase space path integral implies a meaning for the…
We have simulated the ground states of quantum harmonic oscillators driven either by constant forces of different magnitudes or time-dependent driving forces. The expectation values of position for various combinations of mass, natural…
The notion of time in cosmology is revealed through an examination of transition matrix elements of radiative processes occurring in the cosmos. To begin with, the very concept of time is delineated in classical physics in terms of…
A theory of closed bosonic string in time-like gauge, related in Lorentz-invariant way with the world sheet, is considered. Absence of quantum anomalies in this theory is shown.
We present a general algorithm which permits to construct solutions in string cosmology for heterotic and type-IIB superstrings in four dimensions. Using a chain of transformations applied in sequence: conformal, T-duality and SL(2,R)…
We introduce a very early universe model based on the thermodynamics of a gas of closed strings in a background which is non-perturbative in $\alpha'$. Upon considering the fully $\alpha'$-corrected equations extended to include certain…
