The evolution of a mixed quantum-classical system is expressed in the mapping formalism where discrete quantum states are mapped onto oscillator states, resulting in a phase space description of the quantum degrees of freedom. By defining…
Most of the mathematical approaches for quantum Langevin equation are based on the non-commutativity of the random force operators. Non-commutative random force operators are introduced in order to guarantee that the equal-time commutation…
Free scalar field theory on 2 dimensional flat spacetime, cast in diffeomorphism invariant guise by treating the inertial coordinates of the spacetime as dynamical variables, is quantized using LQG type `polymer' representations for the…
A theoretical description of quantum mechanical steady states is developed. Applications for simple quantum mechanical systems described in terms of coupled level structures yield a formulation equivalent to time independent scattering…
The anti self-adjoint operators of imaginary coordinate and momentum, together with the self-adjoint operators of real coordinate, momentum, energy and time are used in construction of the quantum field theory in operator form. This…
The formulation of quantum mechanics within the framework of entropic dynamics is extended to the domain of relativistic quantum fields. The result is a non-dissipative relativistic diffusion in the infinite dimensional space of field…
It is shown that the difficulties in formulating the quantum field theory on discrete spacetime appear already in classical dynamics of one degree of freedom on discrete time. The difference equation of motion which maintains a conserved…
In this paper a quantum mechanical phase space picture is constructed for coarse-grained free quantum fields in an inflationary Universe. The appropriate stochastic quantum Liouville equation is derived. Explicit solutions for the phase…
The Brownian dynamics of the density operator for a quantum system interacting with a classical heat bath is described using a stochastic, non-linear Liouville equation obtained from a variational principle. The environment's degrees of…
Instead of formulating the states of a Quantum Field Theory (QFT) as density matrices over a single large Hilbert space, it has been proposed by Kijowski [Kijowski, 1977] to construct them as consistent families of partial density matrices,…
Quantum field theory unifies concepts from quantum theory and from special relativity. Its mathematically rigorous description is quite intricate and is only partially understood; this is particularly true for the construction of operators…
The quantum states representing classical phase space are given, and these are used to formulate quantum statistical mechanics as a formally exact double perturbation expansion about classical statistical mechanics. One series of quantum…
The ordinary linear quantum theory predicts the quantum correlations at any distance (the universal superposition principle). It creates the decoherence problem since quantum interactions entangle states into non-separable combination. On…
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 determine the form of the Wigner functional for several types of quantum free field theories in order to analyze the representation of QFT in phase space, as well as to compare it to other mainstream formulations. We use Jackiw's…
Understanding quantum dissipation is important from both theoretical perspective and applications. Here, we show how to describe dissipation in a scalar field theory. We treat dissipation non-perturbatively, represent it by a bilinear term…
Localized states in relativistic quantum field theories are usually considered as problematic, because of their seemingly strange (non covariant) behavior under Lorentz transformations, and because they can spread faster than light. We…
Quantization is studied from a viewpoint of field extension. If the dynamical fields and their action have a periodicity, the space of wave functions should be algebraically extended `a la Galois, so that it may be consistent with the…
We investigate the thermodynamical properties of quantum fields in curved spacetime. Our approach is to consider quantum fields in curved spacetime as a quantum system undergoing an out-of-equilibrium transformation. The non-equilibrium…
A quantum fluctuation theorem for a driven quantum subsystem interacting with its environment is derived based solely on the assumption that its reduced density matrix obeys a closed evolution equation i.e. a quantum master equation (QME).…
