We describe our recent proposal of a path integral formulation of classical Hamiltonian dynamics. Which leads us here to a new attempt at hybrid dynamics, which concerns the direct coupling of classical and quantum mechanical degrees of…
The logical structure of Quantum Mechanics (QM) and its relation to other fundamental principles of Nature has been for decades a subject of intensive research. In particular, the question whether the dynamical axiom of QM can be derived…
I propose to formalize quantum theories as topological quantum field theories in a generalized sense, associating state spaces with boundaries of arbitrary (and possibly finite) regions of space-time. I further propose to obtain such…
In quantum theory it is possible to explain time, and dynamics, in terms of entanglement. This is the timeless approach to time, which assumes that the universe is in a stationary state, where two non-interacting subsystems, the clock and…
For quantum theories with a classical limit (which includes the large N limits of typical field theories), we derive a hierarchy of evolution equations for equal time correlators which systematically incorporate corrections to the limiting…
In this note we develop a framework which allows to prove an abstract existence result for non-linear evolution equations involving so-called non-induced operators, i.e., operators which are not prescribed by a time-dependent family of…
A periodic change of slow environmental parameters of a quantum system induces quantum holonomy. The phase holonomy is a well-known example. Another is a more exotic kind that exhibits eigenvalue and eigenspace holonomies. We introduce a…
We develop a nonlinear evolution framework for nonlinear parabolic equations with unbounded drift terms formulated in Lorentz spaces. The main contribution lies in the construction of uniformly m-accretive operators based on Lorentz-Sobolev…
Backlund transformations are used to search for solutions, particularly soliton solutions, of non-linear differential equations. In this paper we present an invariant geometrical theory of Backlund transformations for second order evolution…
We propose a quantum algorithm to solve systems of nonlinear algebraic equations. In the ideal case the complexity of the algorithm is linear in the number of variables $n$, which means our algorithm's complexity is less than $O(n^{3})$ of…
A discursive, non-technical, analysis is made of some of the basic issues that arise in almost any approach to quantum gravity, and of how these issues stand in relation to recent developments in the field. Specific topics include the…
This paper shows how gauge theoretic structures arise naturally in a non-commutative calculus. Aspects of gauge theory, Hamiltonian mechanics and quantum mechanics arise naturally in the mathematics of a non-commutative framework for…
A key aspect of a recent proposal for a {\em generalized loop representation} of quantum Yang-Mills theory and gravity is considered. Such a representation of the quantum theory has been expected to arise via consideration of a particular…
A cornerstone of quantum mechanics is the characterisation of symmetries provided by Wigner's theorem. Wigner's theorem establishes that every symmetry of the quantum state space must be either a unitary transformation, or an antiunitary…
We dwell upon the physicist's conception of `life' since Schroedinger and Wigner through to the modern-day language of living systems in the light of quantum information. We discuss some basic features of a living system such as ordinary…
We present a theory of discontinuous motion of particles in continuous space-time. We show that the simplest nonrelativistic evolution equation of such motion is just the Schroedinger equation in quantum mechanics. This strongly implies…
One possible way to fix partly a ``canonical definition'' of $\tau$-functions beyond the conventional KP/Toda framework could be to postulate that evolution operators are {\it always} group elements. We discuss implications of this…
The problem of construction of irreducible representations of quantum $A^q_n$ algebras is solved at the level of explicit integration of the linear (inhomogeneous) system in finite differences in the n-dimensional space. The general…
The usual formulation of quantum theory is rather abstract. In recent work I have shown that we can, nevertheless, obtain quantum theory from five reasonable axioms. Four of these axioms are obviously consistent with both classical…
We first recall a fact which is well-known among mathematical physicists although lesser-known among theoretical physicists that the standard quantum mechanics over a complex Hilbert space, is a Hamiltonian mechanics, regarding the Hilbert…
