Using a Legendre transformation, we compute the unconstrained Hamiltonian of a spinning test-particle in a curved spacetime at linear order in the particle spin. The equations of motion of this unconstrained Hamiltonian coincide with the…

We map Eigen model of biological evolution [Naturwissenschaften {\bf 58}, 465 (1971)] into a one-dimensional quantum spin model with non-Hermitean Hamiltonian. Based on such a connection, we derive exact relaxation periods for the Eigen…

Quantum dynamics for arbitrary system are traditionally realized by time evolutions of wave functions in Hilbert space and/or density operators in Liouville space. However, the traditional simulations may occasionally turn out to be…

We reformulate the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation as a Maurer-Cartan equation on the superspace of eigensystems of the former equation. We then twist the differential so that its cohomology becomes the space of solutions with a set…

This paper aims to provide a consistent, finite-valued, and mathematically well-defined reformulation of the Feynman path-integral measure for quantum fields obtained by studying the Wiener stochastic process in the infinite-dimensional…

Phase space path integral is worked out in a riemannian geometry, by employing a prescription for the infinitesimal propagator that takes riemannian normal coordinates and momenta on an equal footing. The operator ordering induced by this…

In current studies of mean-field quantum spin systems, much attention is placed on the calculation of the ground-state energy and the excitation gap, especially the latter which plays an important role in quantum annealing. In pure systems,…

We construct a worldline path integral for the effective action and propagator of a Dirac field in 2+1 dimensions in an Abelian gauge field background. Integrating over an auxiliary gauge group variable we derive a worldline action…

we will show the existence and uniqueness of a real-time, time-sliced Feynman path integral for quantum systems with vector potential. Our formulation of the path integral will be derived on the $L^2$ transition probability amplitude via…

A natural mapping of paths in a curved space onto the paths in the corresponding (tangent) flat space may be used to reduce the curved-space-time path integral to the flat-space-time path integral. The dynamics of the particle in a curved…

This work develops a symplectic framework for quantum computing to be applied to classical Hamiltonian systems, exploiting the intrinsic geometric compatibility between unitary quantum evolution and symplectic phase-space dynamics in a…

I investigate the quantum dynamics of a spin-$1/2$ particle in a static, spherically symmetric Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) black-hole spacetime within the Hamiltonian framework. Starting from the Dirac equation in curved spacetime,…

We provide a detailed analysis of the disk path integral of timelike Liouville theory, conceived as a tractable and precise toy-model quantum cosmology in two dimensions. Disk path integrals with the insertion of matter field operators,…

Many introductory courses in quantum mechanics include Feynman's time-slicing definition of the path integral, with a complete derivation of the propagator in the simplest of cases. However, attempts to generalize this, for instance to…

We formulate the quantum mechanics of the solutions of a Klein-Gordon-type field equation: (\partial_t^2+D)\psi(t)=0, where D is a positive-definite operator acting in a Hilbert space \tilde H. We determine all the positive-definite inner…

We discuss the time-continuous path integration in the coherent states basis in a way that is free from inconsistencies. Employing this notion we reproduce known and exact results working directly in the continuum. Such a formalism can set…

This work identifies geometric effects on dynamics due to nonadiabatic couplings in Born Oppenheimer systems and provides a systematic method for deriving corrections to mixed quantum-classical methods. Specifically, an exact path integral…

We recently derived a spin-mapping approach for treating the nonadiabatic dynamics of a two-level system in a classical environment [J. Chem. Phys. 151, 044119 (2019)] based on the well-known quantum equivalence between a two-level system…

Discrete-time quantum walk in one-dimension is studied from a path-integral perspective. This enables derivation of a closed-form expression for amplitudes corresponding to any coin-position basis of the state vector of the quantum walker…

We propose a phase-space path integral formulation of noncommutative quantum mechanics, and prove its equivalence to the operatorial formulation. As an illustration, the partition function of a noncommutative two-dimensional harmonic…
