On the hamiltonian approach to commutator anomalies in (3+1) dimensions
1990
Abstract The quantization of Weyl fermions in the presence of an external nonabelian vector potential is discussed in the case of spacetime dimension (3+1). The hamiltonian approach is used, in the temporal gauge A 0 = 0. In particular, it is explicitly shown how one can lift the action of (an extension of) the group of gauge transformations to the bundle of Fock spaces parametrized by smooth vector potentials.
Perturbative BF-Yang–Mills theory on noncommutative
2000
A U(1) BF-Yang-Mills theory on noncommutative ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ is presented and in this formulation the U(1) Yang-Mills theory on noncommutative ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ is seen as a deformation of the pure BF theory. Quantization using BRST symmetry formalism is discussed and Feynman rules are given. Computations at one-loop order have been performed and their renormalization studied. It is shown that the U(1) BFYM on noncommutative ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ is asymptotically free and its UV-behaviour in the computation of the $\beta$-function is like the usual SU(N) commutative BFYM and Yang Mills theories.

Quantum Solitons on Quantum Chaos: Coherent Structures, Anyons, and Statistical Mechanics
1991
This paper is concerned with the exact evaluation of functional integrals for the partition function Z (free energy F = -β -1 ln Z, β -1 = temperature) for integrable models like the quantum and classical sine-Gordon (s-G) models in 1+1 dimensions.1–12 These models have wide applications in physics and are generic (and important) in that sense. The classical s-G model in 1+1 dimensions $${\phi _{xx}} - {\phi _{tt}} = {m^2}\sin \phi$$ (1) (m > 0 is a “mass”) has soliton (kink, anti-kink and breather) solutions. In Refs 1–12 we have reported a general theory of ‘soliton statistical mechanics’ (soliton SM) in which the particle description can be seen in terms of ‘solitons’ and ‘phonons’. The …
Fundamental Principles of Quantum Mechanics
2001
There are two alternative methods of quantizing a system: a) quantization via the Feynman Path Integral (equivalent to Schwinger’s Action Principle); b) canonical quantization.
Electron Anomalous Magnetic Moment in Basis Light-Front Quantization Approach
2011
We apply the Basis Light-Front Quantization (BLFQ) approach to the Hamiltonian field theory of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) in free space. We solve for the mass eigenstates corresponding to an electron interacting with a single photon in light-front gauge. Based on the resulting non-perturbative ground state light-front amplitude we evaluate the electron anomalous magnetic moment. The numerical results from extrapolating to the infinite basis limit reproduce the perturbative Schwinger result with relative deviation less than 0.6%. We report significant improvements over previous works including the development of analytic methods for evaluating the vertex matrix elements of QED.
Quantum chemical study of electron‐phonon interaction in crystals
2013
Study of the interaction of the electromagnetic radiation with nonlocal potentials and the electron-phonon interaction is motivated by its key role in non-classical phenomena in dielectrics and semiconductors. Actual in second quantization is decoupling of the undesirable mixture of electronic and phonon birth/annihilation operators and obtaining the effect of radiation in presence of the nonlocal potentials. Here we transform an arbitrary effective electron- phonon Hamiltonian in two matrices – the matrix of a new interaction Hamiltonian and the matrix of the transformation. For a particular effective Hamiltonian formulated in second quantization these two matrices outline a starting point…
The 2 + 1 Kepler problem and its quantization
2001
We study a system of two pointlike particles coupled to three dimensional Einstein gravity. The reduced phase space can be considered as a deformed version of the phase space of two special-relativistic point particles in the centre of mass frame. When the system is quantized, we find some possibly general effects of quantum gravity, such as a minimal distances and a foaminess of the spacetime at the order of the Planck length. We also obtain a quantization of geometry, which restricts the possible asymptotic geometries of the universe.

Riccati-Padé quantization and oscillatorsV(r)=grα
1993
We develop an alternative construction of bound states based on matching the Riccati threshold and asymptotic expansions via their two-point Pad\'e interpolation. As a form of quantization it gives highly accurate eigenvalues and eigenfunctions.
