In this thesis we develop a novel approximation scheme (eQPA), where the effects of nonlocal coherence are included in the kinetic approach to nonequilibrium quantum dynamics. The key element in our formalism is the finding of new singular…

We develop a path integrals approach for analyzing stationary light propagation appropriate for photonic crystals. The hermitian form of the stationary Maxwell equations is transformed into a quantum mechanical problem of a spin 1 particle…

Scalar field systems containing higher derivatives are studied and quantized by Hamiltonian path integral formalism. A new point to previous quantization methods is that field functions and their derivatives with time are considered as…

This work is a generalization of \cite{baldiotti2021} to Grassmann algebras of arbitrary dimensions. Here we present a covariant quantization scheme for pseudoclassical theories focused on non-hermitian quantum mechanics. The quantization…

Work statistics characterizes important features of a non-equilibrium thermodynamic process. But the calculation of the work statistics in an arbitrary non-equilibrium process is usually a cumbersome task. In this work, we study the work…

We study the path integral formulation of Friedmann universe filled with a massless scalar field in loop quantum cosmology. All the isotropic models of $k=0,+1,-1$ are considered. To construct the path integrals in the timeless framework, a…

The restricted Feynman path integrals (RFPIs) have been proposed to study continuous quantum measurements in physics. The RFPIs are heuristically determined in terms of the usual probability amplitude multiplied by weight for each path,…

A fully regulated definition of Feynman's path integral is presented here. The proposed re-formulation of the path integral coincides with the familiar formulation whenever the path integral is well-defined. In particular, it is consistent…

One of the most severe bottlenecks to reach high-precision predictions in QFT is the calculation of multiloop multileg Feynman integrals. Several new strategies have been proposed in the last years, allowing impressive results with deep…

As a hallmark of pure quantum effect, quantum entanglement has provided unconventional routes to condensed matter systems. Here, from the perspective of quantum entanglement, we disclose exotic quantum physics in non-Hermitian…

Equivariant Ehrhart theory generalizes the study of lattice point enumeration to also account for the symmetries of a polytope under a linear group action. We present a catalogue of techniques with applications in this field, including…

We consider network models for localisation problems belonging to symmetry class C. This symmetry class arises in a description of the dynamics of quasiparticles for disordered spin-singlet superconductors which have a Bogoliubov - de…

Picard--Lefschetz theory is applied to path integrals of quantum mechanics, in order to compute real-time dynamics directly. After discussing basic properties of real-time path integrals on Lefschetz thimbles, we demonstrate its…

We give a pragmatic/pedagogical discussion of using Euclidean path integral in asset pricing. We then illustrate the path integral approach on short-rate models. By understanding the change of path integral measure in the Vasicek/Hull-White…

The first seven sections of the paper contain a version of localization for the norm-square of the moment map in equivariant de Rham theory, similar to that proved by P.-E. Paradan. The last section contains a definition and computation of…

Path integral-based simulation methodologies play a crucial role for the investigation of nuclear quantum effects by means of computer simulations. However, these techniques are significantly more demanding than corresponding classical…

We study finite-dimensional integrals in a way that elucidates the mathematical meaning behind the formal manipulations of path integrals occurring in quantum field theory. This involves a proper understanding of how Wick's theorem allows…

We generalize the cosection localized Gysin map to intersection homology and Borel-Moore homology, which provides us with a purely topological construction of the Fan-Jarvis-Ruan-Witten invariants and some GLSM invariants.

In the context of supersymmetric quantum mechanics we formulate new supersymmetric localization principle, with application to trace formulas for a full thermal partition function. Unlike the standard localization principle, this new…

Equivariant localization expresses global invariants in terms of local invariants, and many of them appearing in equivariant index theory, (holomorphic) Morse theory, geometric quantization and supersymmetric localization can be…
