The semiclassical theory for the large-N field models is developed from an unusual point of view. Analogously to the procedure of the second quantization in quantum mechanics, the functional Schrodinger large-N equation is presented in a…

We show that any short-range Hamiltonian with a gap between the ground and excited states can be written as a sum of local operators, such that the ground state is an approximate eigenvector of each operator separately. We then show that…

By considering the Einstein vacuum field equations linearized about the Minkowski metric, the evolution equations for the gauge-invariant quantities characterizing the gravitational field are written in a Hamiltonian form by using a…

We show how to compute vacuum expectation values from derivative expansions of the vacuum wave functional. Such expansions appear to be valid only for slowly varying fields, but by exploiting analyticity in a complex scale parameter we can…

In frames of the nonlocal and nonpolynomial quantum theory of the one component scalar field in $D$-dimensional spacetime, stated by Gariy Vladimirovich Efimov, the expansion of the $\mathcal{S}$-matrix is revisited for different…

We simplify the proof of some widely used theoretical theorems, extending their applicability, while correcting some erroneous results. We also generalize key results and present new results that contribute to the development of the theory.…

In this paper we consider the simplest functional Schroedinger equation of a quantum field theory (in particular QCD) and study its solutions. We observe that the solutions to this equation must possess a number of properties. Its Taylor…

We propose a new classical approach for describing a system composed of $n$ interacting particles with variable mass connected by a single field with no predefined form ($n$-VMVF systems). Instead of assuming any particular nature or…

The vacuum energy density due to a single quantum field diverges quarticly with the ultraviolet cutoff $\Lambda$, in wild disagreement with the value implied by cosmological observations. We show that in effective field theories containing…

A method is presented to compute approximate solutions for eigenequations in quantum mechanics with an arbitrary kinetic part. In some cases, the approximate eigenvalues can be analytically determined and they can be lower or upper bounds.…

The system of oscillator interacting with vacuum is considered as a problem of random motion of quantum reactive harmonic oscillator (QRHO). It is formulated in terms of a wave functional regarded as complex probability process in the…

The capabilities of the functional-analytic and of the functional-integral approach for the construction of the Hamiltonian as a self-adjoint operator on Hilbert space are compared in the context of non-relativistic quantum mechanics.…

Background: The vacuum in the light-front representation of quantum field theory is trivial while vacuum in the equivalent canonical representation of the same theory is non-trivial. Purpose: Understand the relation between the vacuum in…

The eigenvalue equation has been found for a Hamilton function in a form independent of the choice of a potential. This paper proposes a modified Fedosov construction on a flat symplectic manifold. Necessary and sufficient conditions for…

Functionals (i.e. functions of functions) are widely used in quantum field theory and solid-state physics. In this paper, functionals are given a rigorous mathematical framework and their main properties are described. The choice of the…

Any given system of ordinary differential equations in $n$-dimensional configuration space can be obtained from a peculiar variational problem with one local symmetry. The obtained action functional leads to the Hamiltonian formulation in…

This paper addresses particular eigenvalue problems within the context of two quaternionic function theories. More precisely, we study two concrete classes of quaternionic eigenvalue problems, the first one for the slice derivative operator…

Numerous tasks in imaging and vision can be formulated as variational problems over vector-valued maps. We approach the relaxation and convexification of such vectorial variational problems via a lifting to the space of currents. To that…

Using techniques from hopping expansion we identically map the lattice Schwinger model with Wilson fermions to a model of oriented loops on the lattice. This is done by first computing the explicit form of the fermion determinant in the…

In earlier works on Shape Dynamics (SD), a linear method of solving a particular set of Lichnerowicz-type equations through the implicit function theorem was developed in order to implicitly construct SD's global Hamiltonian and eliminate…
