We address the issue of inequivalent Fock representations in Quantum Field Theory in a curved homogenous and anisotropic background, namely Kantowski-Sachs spacetime. A family of unitarily equivalent Fock representations that are invariant…
We present a complete quantization of an approximately homogeneous and isotropic universe with small scalar perturbations. We consider the case in which the matter content is a minimally coupled scalar field and the spatial sections are…
In this paper we continue the development of Quantum Holonomy Theory, which is a candidate for a fundamental theory, by constructing separable strongly continuous representations of its algebraic foundation, the quantum…
Starting from the Weyl gauge formulation of quantum electrodynamics (QED), the formalism of quantum-mechanical gauge fixing is extended using techniques from nonrelativistic QED. This involves expressing the redundant gauge degrees of…
A new classical 2-spinor approach to $U(1)$ gauge theory is presented in which the usual four-potential vector field is replaced by a symmetric second rank spinor. Following a lagrangian formulation, it is shown that the four-rank spinor…
Fundamental problems of quantum field theory related to the representation problem of canonical commutation relations are discussed within a gauge field version of a van Hove-type model. The Coulomb field generated by a static charge…
Starting from a weak gauge principle we give a new and critical revision of the argument leading to charge quantization on arbitrary spacetimes. The main differences of our approach with respect to previous works appear on spacetimes with…
Fock representations are constructed for a free scalar field in the closed and quasi-Euclidean isotropic cosmological models. Invariance of their cyclic vector (vacuum) under isometries and the correspondence principle single out a class of…
Quantum field theories with global symmetries simplify considerably in the large-charge limit allowing to compute correlators via a semiclassical expansion in the inverse powers of the conserved charges. A generalization of the approach to…
The problem of defining and constructing representations of the Canonical Commutation Relations can be systematically approached via the technique of {\it algebraic quantization}. In particular, when the phase space of the system is linear…
Contrary to the conventional view point of quantization that breaks the gauge symmetry, a gauge invariant formulation of quantum electrodynamics is proposed. Instead of fixing the gauge, some frame is chosen to yield the locally invariant…
In this Colloqium Lecture (by one of the authors (D.S)) a thorough presentation of the authors' research on the subjects, stated in the title, is given. By quite laborious mathematics it is explained how one can handle systems in which each…
We discuss diffeomorphism and gauge invariant theories in three dimensions motivated by the fact that some models of interest do not have a suitable action description yet. The construction is based on a canonical representation of symmetry…
The paper is devoted to the symmetry aspects of 2D nonlocal field theory, which is the simplest deformation of the conformally invariant quantum field theory with one free bosonic field. The inverse problem of representation theory is…
A universal C*-algebra of gauge invariant operators is presented, describing the electromagnetic field as well as operations creating pairs of static electric charges having opposite signs. Making use of Gauss' law, it is shown that the…
We investigate a certain distributional extension of the group of spatial diffeomorphisms in Loop Quantum Gravity. This extension, which is given by the automorphisms Aut(P) of the path groupoid P, was proposed by Velhinho and is inspired…
We consider a class of gauge invariant models on the noncommutative space $\mathbb{R}^3_\lambda$, a deformation of $\mathbb{R}^3$. Focusing on massless models with no linear $A_i$ dependence, we obtain noncommutative gauge models for which…
In a recent proposal we applied methods from constructive QFT to derive a Hamiltonian Renormalisation Group in order to employ it ultimately for canonical quantum gravity. The proposal was successfully tested for free scalar fields and thus…
We study the action of space-time symmetries on quantum fields in the presence of small departures from locality determined by dynamical gravity. It is shown that, under such relaxation of locality, the symmetries of the theory cannot be…
We analyze the issue of anomaly-free representations of the constraint algebra in Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) in the context of a diffeomorphism-invariant gauge theory in three spacetime dimensions. We construct a Hamiltonian constraint…
