theory

- Abstract summary: We consider an exactly solvable local quantum theory of a scalar field interacting with a $delta$-shaped time-dependent potential.
We show how these considerations, when suitably generalized to a specific nonlocal "infinite-derivative" quantum theory, are impacted by the presence of nonlocality.

- Abstract: Considering an exactly solvable local quantum theory of a scalar field
interacting with a $\delta$-shaped time-dependent potential we calculate the
Bogoliubov coefficients analytically and determine the spectrum of created
particles. We then show how these considerations, when suitably generalized to
a specific nonlocal "infinite-derivative" quantum theory, are impacted by the
presence of nonlocality. In this model, nonlocality leads to a significant
resonant amplification of certain modes, leaving its imprint not only in the
particle spectrum but also in the total number density of created particles.

We analytically compute the probability of $(e+ e-) $pair production in momentum space.
We compare the result with quantum kinetic theory (QKT)

We analytically derive the modified Langevin noise formalism from the established canonical quantization of the electromagnetic field in macroscopic media.
We prove that each of the two field parts can be expressed in term of particular bosonic operators, which in turn diagonalize the electromagnetic Hamiltonian.

Non-relativistic quantum mechanics was originally formulated to describe particles.
We show how the concept of antiparticles can and should be introduced in the non-relativistic case without appealing to quantum field theory.

We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians.
We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

We also show that local spectral functions of large finite clusters host discrete peaks whose positions agree with our analytical estimates.

We study the phenomenon of transmission across the singularity that separates the two half-cylinders.
All the local realisations of the free (Laplace-Beltrami) quantum Hamiltonian are examined as non-equivalent protocols of transmission/reflection.
This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.

Quantum computing may offer the opportunity to simulate strongly-interacting field theories, such as quantum chromodynamics, with physical time evolution.
As with present-day calculations, quantum computation strategies still require the restriction to a finite system size.
We quantify the volume effects for various $1+1$D Minkowski-signature quantities and show that these can be a significant source of systematic uncertainty.
