Talk given at NATO ARW in Kiev (September 2000) "Non-commutative Structures in Mathematics and Physics".
Transparencies of the 18th Henry Primakoff lecture at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, USA, April 11, 2001 and of the Special lecture given at the 7th International Workshop on Topics in Astroparticle and Underground Physics,…
This article is the written version of the closing talk presented at the conference `A Century of Cosmology' held at San Servolo, Italy, in August 2007. I focus on the prospects of constraining fundamental physics from cosmological…
I review the holographic theory of space-time and its applications to cosmology. Much of this has appeared before, but the discussion is more unified and concise. I also include some material on work in progress, whose aim is to understand…
In my previous work, physics/0205011, I reported several observations on special relativity, its experimental facts and its relations to quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics. These observations made us conscious: Special relativity…

I present a general overview of the results discussed during the Cracow 1997 workshop on ``Relativistic Jets in AGNs.'' My emphasis will be on showing the significant progress made in several areas over the last few years, pointing out what…
This is the written version of my five lectures at the Banach Center mini-school on "Schubert Varieties", in Warsaw, May 18-22, 2003.
Concluding remarks at the international workshop ``Tracing Cosmic Evolution with Galaxy Clusters", held at Sesto Pusteria, Italy, July 3-6, 2001.
Assorted questions: Time as a parameter in Quantum Mechanics. No-Go theorems for a time operator. Localization, time and causality. Causality violation. Localization again. Lesson 1: Evading the troubles: Im E finite. Lights and shadows of…
In her recent work, Dittrich generalized Rovelli's idea of partial observables to construct Dirac observables for constrained systems to the general case of an arbitrary first class constraint algebra with structure functions rather than…
(abridged)The achievements of the present work include: a) A clarification of the multiple definition given by Bergmann of the concept of {\it (Bergmann) observable. This clarification leads to the proposal of a {\it main conjecture}…

Lecture at BOSS2011 on relativistic metrology, on clock synchronization, relativistic dynamics and non-inertial frames in Minkowski spacetime, on relativistic atomic physics, on ADM canonical tetrad gravity in asymptotically Minkowskian…
This is the written version of the summary talk given at the 20th Texas Symposium on Relativistic Astrophysics in Austin, Texas, on December 15, 2000. After a brief summary of some of the highlights at the conference, comments are offered…
This is an introductory set of lecture notes on quantum cosmology, given in 1995 to an audience with interests ranging from astronomy to particle physics. Topics covered: 1. Introduction: 1.1 Quantum cosmology and quantum gravity; 1.2 A…
These are extended notes for my lectures at the workshop ``Reconstructing the Gravitational Hologram'' held at Galileo-Galilei Institute, Florence, in June 2022.
We discuss the expected amplitude of a cosmic background of massive, non-relativistic dilatons, and we report recent results about its possible detection. This paper is a contracted version of a talk given at the 15th SIGRAV Conference on…
Using the recently proposed covariant framework of general relativistic stochastic mechanics and stochastic thermodynamics, we proved the detailed and integral fluctuation theorems in curved spacetime. The time-reversal transformation is…
Some of the new experimental results and theoretical developments presented at the Workshop on Deep Inelastic Scattering and Related Phenomena (Rome, April 1996) are reviewed.
