We consider the possibility of obtaining emergent properties of physical spaces endowed with structures analogous to that of collective models put forward by classical statistical physics. We show that, assuming that a so-called "metric…

With advances in quantum computing, new opportunities arise to tackle challenging calculations in quantum field theory. We show that trotterized time-evolution operators can be related by analytic continuation to the Euclidean transfer…

One of the most difficult questions in present-day physics concerns a fundamental theory of space, time, and matter that incorporates a consistent quantum description of gravity. There are various theoretical approaches to such a…

We assume that the fourdimensional quantum gravity is scale invariant at short distances. We show through a simple scaling argument that correlation functions of quantum fields interacting with gravity have a universal (more regular) short…

After a brief account of the algebraic version of renormalization group developed by Buchholz and Verch, and of the main results of the Doplicher-Haag- Roberts theory of superselection sectors, we introduce the notion of asymptotic charge…

Fokker-Planck equations represent a suitable description of the finite-time behavior for a large class of particle systems as the size of the population tends to infinity. Recently, the theory of graph limits has been introduced in the…

We consider sketch vectors of geometric objects $J$ through the \mindist function \[ v_i(J) = \inf_{p \in J} \|p-q_i\| \] for $q_i \in Q$ from a point set $Q$. Collecting the vector of these sketch values induces a simple, effective, and…

In this paper we look at a class of random optimization problems that arise in the forms typically known in statistical physics as Little models. In \cite{BruParRit92} the Little models were studied by means of the well known tool from the…

The properties of nuclear matter are studied in the cut-off field theory. It is found that, under the Hartree approximation, the small cut-off makes the equations of state hard, especially at higher densities. The theory is modified in the…

The aim of this paper is to clarify the relation between three different approaches of theories with a minimal length scale: A modification of the Lorentz-group in the 'Deformed Special Relativity', theories with a 'Generalized Uncertainty…

In this paper we study the common distance between points and the behavior of a constant length step discrete random walk on finite area hyperbolic surfaces. We show that if the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian is at least 1/4,…

Topological Data Analysis methods can be useful for classification and clustering tasks in many different fields as they can provide two dimensional persistence diagrams that summarize important information about the shape of potentially…

We argue that discreteness at the Planck scale (naturally expected to arise from quantum gravity) might manifest in the form of minute violations of energy-momentum conservation of the matter degrees of freedom when described in terms of…

In various approaches to quantum gravity continuum spacetime is expected to emerge from discrete geometries through a phase transition. In group field theory, various indications for such a transition have recently been found but a complete…

Several issues in the modal approach to quantum field theory are discussed. Within the formalism of spherical field theory, differential renormalization is presented and shown to result in a finite number of renormalization parameters.…

Since quantum field theories do not possess proper position observables, Unruh-DeWitt detector models serve as a key theoretical tool for extracting localized spatio-temporal information from quantum fields. Most studies have been limited,…

Using a quantum field theoretic setting, we present evidence for dimensional reduction of any sub-volume of Minkowksi space. First, we show that correlation functions of a class of operators restricted to a sub-volume of D-dimensional…

I explore a theory of transport and optical properties of strange metallic carriers in strongly correlated systems that follows from assuming that the diffusion constant has reached its quantum limit $D=\hbar/m$, and that such quantum…

This is the written version of a talk I gave at the 35th Symposium Ahrenshoop in Berlin, Germany, August 2002. It is an exposition of joint work with S. Doplicher, K. Fredenhagen, and Gh. Piacitelli [1]. The violation of unitarity found in…

The paper deals with a special kind of problems that appear in solutions of Einstein's field equations for extended bodies: many structure-dependent terms appear in intermediate calculations that cancel exactly in virtue of the local…
