Finite group symmetry is commonplace in Physics, in particular through crystallographic groups occurring in condensed matter physics -- but also through the inversions (C,P,T and their combinations) occurring in high energy physics and…
Starting with the generally well accepted opinion that quantizing an arbitrary Hamiltonian system involves picking out some additional structure on the classical phase space (the {\sl shadow} of quantum mechanics in the classical theory),…
Based mainly on examples of interest in mechanics, we define the notion of a polite group action. One may view this as not only trying to give a more general notion than properness of a group action, but also to more fully understand the…
A version of foliated spacetime is constructed in which the spatial geometry is described as a time dependent noncommutative geometry. The ADM version of the gravitational action is expressed in terms of these variables. It is shown that…
We present an alternative formulation of generalized unimodular gravity (GUMG), a class of modifications to general relativity characterized by a special partial breaking of general coordinate covariance. The action for this formulation is…
The paper is the first of two parts of the work devoted to the investigation of constructing quantum theory of a closed universe as a system without asynptotic states. In Part I the role of asymptotic states in quantum theory of gravity is…
The section condition in double field theory has been shown to imply that a physical point should be one-to-one identified with a gauge orbit in the doubled coordinate space. Here we show the converse is also true, and continue to explore…
We discuss space-time symmetric Hamiltonian operators of the form $% H=H_{0}+igH^{\prime}$, where $H_{0}$ is Hermitian and $g$ real. $H_{0}$ is invariant under the unitary operations of a point group $G$ while $H^{\prime}$ is invariant…
The projector onto gauge invariant physical states was recently constructed for arbitrary constrained systems. This approach, which does not require gauge fixing nor any additional degrees of freedom beyond the original ones---two…
We study the orbit structure and the geometric quantization of a pair of mutually commuting hamiltonian actions on a symplectic manifold. If the pair of actions fulfils a symplectic Howe condition, we show that there is a canonical…
A general algebraic approach, incorporating both invariance groups and dynamic symmetry algebras, is developed to reveal hidden coherent structures (closed complexes and configurations) in quantum many-body physics models due to symmetries…
Physical states in quantum mechanics are rays in a Hilbert space. Projective representations of a relativity group transform between the quantum physical states that are in the admissible class. The physical observables of position, time,…
We present a simple geometric construction linking geometric to deformation quantization. Both theories depend on some apparently arbitrary parameters, most importantly a polarization and a symplectic connection, and for real polarizations…
A conditional symmetry is defined, in the phase-space of a quadratic in velocities constrained action, as a simultaneous conformal symmetry of the supermetric and the superpotential. It is proven that such a symmetry corresponds to a…
Symmetry groups of PDEs allow to transform solutions continuously into other solutions. In this paper, we use this property for the observability analysis of nonlinear PDEs with input and output. Based on a differential-geometric…
Symmetry postulates play a crucial role in various approaches to reconstruct quantum theory from a few basic principles. Discrete and continuous symmetries are under consideration. The continuous case better matches the physical needs for…
A noncommutative space-time admitting dilation symmetry was briefly mentioned in the seminal work of Doplicher, Fredenhagen and Roberts. In this paper we explicitly construct the model in details and carry out an in-depth analysis. The…
The geometric form of standard quantum mechanics is compatible with the two postulates: 1) The laws of physics are invariant under the choice of experimental setup and 2) Every quantum observation or event is intrinsically statistical.…
Ordered chains (such as chains of amino acids) are ubiquitous in biological cells, and these chains perform specific functions contingent on the sequence of their components. Using the existence and general properties of such sequences as a…
This paper presents the geometric setting of quantum variational principles and extends it to comprise the interaction between classical and quantum degrees of freedom. Euler-Poincar\'e reduction theory is applied to the Schr\"odinger,…
