The quantization of the energy in a magnetic field (Landau quantization) at a three-quarter Dirac point is studied theoretically. The three-quarter Dirac point is realized in the system of massless Dirac fermions with the critically tilted…
The theory of point-particles in classical electrodynamics has a well-known problem of infinite self-energy, and the same is true of quantum electrodynamics. Instead of concluding that there is no such thing as a true point-particle, it is…
The one--loop effective action for a slowly varying electromagnetic field is computed at finite temperature and density using a real-time formalism. We discuss the gauge invariance of the result. Corrections to the Debye mass from an…
We study the question of generalizing light-front field theories to finite temperature. We show that the naive generalization has serious problems and we identify the source of the difficulty. We provide a proper generalization of these…
Hamiltonian light-front quantum field theory provides a framework for calculating both static and dynamic properties of strongly interacting relativistic systems. Invariant masses, correlated parton amplitudes and time-dependent scattering…
We calculate the free energy of the quantum uniform electron gas for temperatures from near zero to 100 times the Fermi energy, approaching the classical limit. An extension of the Vashista-Singwi theory to finite temperatures and…
Gauge invariance of noncommutative (NC) regularization which, on the basis of a Lorentz-invariant NC action regarded as a `regulated' action, neither introduces auxiliary fields nor extends dimensions to complex values, is proved by…
We show that the logarithmic divergences that appear in the classical approximation of the finite temperature SU(N) self-energy are transverse. We use the Ward identities in linear gauges and the fact that the superficial degree of…
Employing a local formula for the electron-electron interaction energy, we derive a self-consistent approximation for the total energy of a general $N$-electron system. Our scheme works as a local variant of the Thomas-Fermi approximation…
Thermodynamic random processes in thermal systems are generally associated with one or several relaxation times, the inverse of which are formally homogeneous with energy. Here, we show in a precise way that the periodic modification of…
We investigate quark matter at finite temperature and finite chemical potential as an example for a relativistic many-particle quantum system. Special relativity is realized through the front form that allows for a Hamiltonian formulation…
Worldline approaches, when available, often simplify and make more efficient the calculation of various observables in quantum field theories. In this contribution we first review the calculation of the graviton self-energy due to a loop of…
Quantum thermalization is well understood via the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH). The general form of ETH, describing all the relevant correlations of matrix elements, may be derived on the basis of a `typicality' argument of…
A detailed description of the numerical procedure is presented for the evaluation of the one-loop self-energy correction to the $g$-factor of an electron in the $1s$ and $2s$ states in H-like ions to all orders in $Z\alpha$.
The Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH) provides a way to understand how an isolated quantum mechanical system can be approximated by a thermal density matrix. We find a class of operators in (1+1)-$d$ conformal field theories,…
In the theory of special relativity, energy can be found in two forms: kinetic energy and rest mass. Potential energy of a body is actually stored under the form of rest mass, interaction energy too, temperature is not. Information acquired…
Chern-Simons theory coupled to complex scalars is quantized on the light- front in the local light-cone gauge by constructing the self-consistent hamiltonian theory. It is shown that no inconsistency arises on using two local gauge-fixing…
We propose an easy method of calculating the self-energy of semi-infinite leads attached to a mesoscopic system.
We study the problem of energy relaxation in a one-dimensional electron system. The leading thermalization mechanism is due to three-particle collisions. We show that for the case of spinless electrons in a single channel quantum wire the…
We study the one-loop contributions of matter and radiation to the gravitational polarization tensor at finite temperatures. Using the analytically continued imaginary-time formalism, the contribution of matter is explicitly given to…
