There are various ways of defining the Wick rotation in a gravitational context. There are good arguments to view it as an analytic continuation of the metric, instead of the coordinates. We focus on one very general definition and argue…
Minkowski spacetime can be mapped by a series of projections in a higher-dimensional spacetime to a Euclidean space, constituting a process of Euclideanization shown here in detail for two dimensions. The result allows regularizations and…
The characterization of physical systems requires a comprehensive understanding of quantum effects. One aspect is a proper quantification of the strength of such quantum phenomena. Here, a general convex ordering of quantum states will be…
We review the D-formalism, a new method for determining the renormalization of Green functions to all orders in perturbation theory. This formalism exploits the fact that the renormalized Green functions may be calculated by displacing by…
We develop the theory of Wigner representations for general probabilistic theories (GPTs), a large class of operational theories that include both classical and quantum theory. The Wigner representations that we introduce are a natural way…
This work is devoted to incorporating into QFT the notion that particles and hence the particle states should be localizable in space. It focuses on the case of the Dirac field in 1+1 dimensional flat spacetime, generalizing a recently…
Warped convolutions of operators were recently introduced in the algebraic framework of quantum physics as a new constructive tool. It is shown here that these convolutions provide isometric representations of Rieffel's strict deformations…
We continue the construction of the $:\phi^4_4:$ quantum field theory. In this paper we consider the Wick kernel of the interacting quantum field. Using the complex structure and the Fock-Bargmann-Berezin-Segal integral representation we…
In this paper, a key problem of the rigorous formulation of the renormalization group as a continuous flow is identified. Some essential features of the operator-theoretic renormalization group are recalled, and a family of norms associated…
The domain of application of quantization methods is traditionally restricted to smooth classical observables. We show that the coherent states or "anti-Wick" quantization enables us to construct fairly reasonable quantum versions of…
We implement the normal ordering technique to study the quantum dissipation of a single mode harmonic oscillator system. The dynamic evolution of the system is investigated for a reasonable initial state by solving the Schr\"{o}dinger…
A normal form transformation is carried out on the operators of a complete set of commuting observables in a multidimensional, integrable quantum system, mapping them by unitary conjugation into functions of the harmonic oscillators in the…
In quantum field theory, sharp momentum states have to be normalized to be in Fock space. We investigate different normalization schemes, both box normalization and wave packets. These methods are equivalent in flat spacetimes, but turn out…
We consider deformations of quantum mechanical operators by using the novel construction of warped convolutions. The deformation enables us to obtain several quantum mechanical effects where electromagnetic and gravitomagnetic fields play a…
Schwinger's formalism in quantum field theory can be easily implemented in the case of scalar theories in $D$ dimension with exponential interactions, such as $\mu^D\exp(\alpha\phi)$. In particular, we use the relation $$…
To apply the abstract quantum formalism to a particular physical system, one must specify the precise form of the relevant measurement and symmetry transformation operators. These operators are determined by a set of rules, the…
A simple proof is provided to show that any bounded normal operator on a real Hilbert space is orthogonally equivalent to its transpose(adjoint). A structure theorem for invertible skew-symmetric operators, which is analogous to the finite…
Bohmian mechnaics is the most naively obvious embedding imaginable of Schr\"odingers's equation into a completely coherent physical theory. It describes a world in which particles move in a highly non-Newtonian sort of way, one which may at…
The space, on which quantum field operators are given, is constructed in any theory, in which the usual product between test functions is substituted by the $\star$-product (the Moyal-type product). The important example of such a theory is…
This paper surveys some results on Wick product and Wick renormalization. The framework is the abstract Wiener space. Some known results on Wick product and Wick renormalization in the white noise analysis framework are presented for…
