Rules of quantization and equations of motion for a finite-dimensional formulation of Quantum Field Theory are proposed which fulfill the following properties: a) both the rules of quantization and the equations of motion are covariant; b)…
Group field theories are particular quantum field theories defined on D copies of a group which reproduce spin foam amplitudes on a space-time of dimension D. In these lecture notes, we present the general construction of group field…
Without a complete theory of quantum gravity, the question of how quantum fields and quantum particles behave in a superposition of spacetimes seems beyond the reach of theoretical and experimental investigations. Here we use an extension…
We present a general theory of mixing for an arbitrary number of fields with integer or half-integer spin. The time dynamics of the interacting fields is solved and the Fock space for interacting fields is explicitly constructed. The…
We study a generalization of higher gauge theory which makes use of generalized geometry and seems to be closely related to double field theory. The local kinematical data of this theory is captured by morphisms of graded manifolds between…
In the perspective of unifying quantum field theories with general relativity,the equations of the internal dynamics of the vacuum and mass structures of a set of interacting particles are proved to be in one-to-one correspondence with the…
We examine the dependence of quantization on global properties of a classical system. Quantization based on local properties may lead to ambiguities and inconsistency between local and global symmetries of a quantum system. Our quantization…
The symmetry reduction of dynamical systems that are invariant under changes of global scale is well-understood for classical theories of particles, and fields. The excision of the superfluous degree of freedom generating such rescalings…
We show that the real massive Klein-Gordon theory admits a description in terms of states on various timelike hypersurfaces and amplitudes associated to regions bounded by them. This realizes crucial elements of the general boundary…
Quantum General Relativity (QGR), sometimes called Loop Quantum Gravity, has matured over the past fifteen years to a mathematically rigorous candidate quantum field theory of the gravitational field. The features that distinguish it from…
Group Field Theories (GFT) are quantum field theories over group manifolds; they can be seen as a generalization of matrix models. GFT Feynman graphs are tensor graphs generalizing ribbon graphs (or combinatorial maps); these graphs are…
Generalized Weyl quantization formalism for the cylindrical phase space $S^1 \times \mathbb{R}^1$ is developed. It is shown that the quantum observables relevant to the phase of linear harmonic oscillator or electromagnetic field can be…
The stipulation that no measurable quantity could have an infinite value is indispensable in physics. At the same time, in mathematics, the possibility of considering an infinite procedure as a whole is usually taken for granted. However,…
A field theory with local transformations belonging to the quantum group SU_q(n) is defined on a classical spacetime, with gauge potentials belonging to a quantum Lie algebra. Gauge transformations are defined for the potentials which lead…
Relying on a fundamental empirical identity of heavy and inertial mass it is proposed to bring a status of general theory of relativity (GTR) of Einstein up to a level of Unified Field Theory. To do this, a thoroughgoing revision of…
Before we ask what the quantum gravity theory is, it is a legitimate quest to formulate a robust quantum field theory in curved spacetime (QFTCS). Several conceptual problems, especially unitarity loss (pure states evolving into mixed…
While Quantum Gravity remains elusive and Quantum Field Theory retains the interpretational difficulties of Quantum Mechanics, we have introduced an alternate approach to the unification of particles, fields, space and time, suggesting that…
We construct a mathematical version of quantum field theory. It assigns to a multidimensional variational principle an associative algebra which is a quantization of the Poisson algebra of classical field theory observables. For free scalar…
We give an abstract framework to transfer generalized amalgamation from a simple theory to another, and we apply it to theories of lovely pairs and of bounded PAC structures. We show in particular that bounded pseudo-algebraically closed…
We present a notion of generalized entanglement which goes beyond the conventional definition based on quantum subsystems. This is accomplished by directly defining entanglement as a property of quantum states relative to a distinguished…
