- Abstract: The spin geometry theorem of Penrose is extended from $SU(2)$ to $E(3)$
(Euclidean) invariant elementary quantum mechanical systems. Using the natural
decomposition of the total angular momentum into its spin and orbital parts,
the \emph{distance} between the centre-of-mass lines of the elementary
subsystems of a classical composite system can be recovered from their
\emph{relative orbital angular momenta} by $E(3)$-invariant classical
observables. Motivated by this observation, an expression for the `empirical
distance' between the elementary subsystems of a \emph{composite quantum
mechanical system}, given in terms of $E(3)$-invariant quantum observables, is
suggested. It is shown that, in the classical limit, this expression reproduces
the \emph{a priori} Euclidean distance between the subsystems, though at the
quantum level it has a discrete character. `Empirical' angles and 3-volume
elements are also considered.

We show how to reduce the geometry of degenerate states to the non-abelian connection $A$.
We find independent invariants associated with each triple of subspaces.
Some of them generalize the Berry-Pancharatnam phase, and some do not have analogues for 1-dimensional subspaces.

We elaborate the definition and properties of "massive" elementary systems in the $(1+3)$-dimensional Anti-de Sitter (AdS$_4$) spacetime.
We reveal the dual nature of "massive" elementary systems living in AdS$_4$ spacetime, as each being a combination of a Minkowskian-like elementary system.
This duality will take its whole importance in the quantum regime in view of its possible role in the explanation of the current existence of dark matter.

and connections to phase-space and Keldysh field theory formulations [77.34726150561087]
We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods.
We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians.
For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

We show that the quantum analogue of the classical facilitated process engineers an interesting $quantum$ $absorbing$ $transition$ where the quantum particles transit from an unentangled direct-product absorbing phase to an entangled steady state with a finite current at density $rho=1/2$.
Our work ties the two sub-fields of classically interacting exclusion processes, and interacting non-Hermitian quantum Hamiltonians to show common themes in the non-equilibrium phases they realise.

A strict deformation quantization is analysed on the classical phase space $bR2n$.
The existence of this classical limit is in particular proved for ground states of a wide class of Schr"odinger operators.
The support of the classical state is included in certain orbits in $bR2n$ depending on the symmetry of the potential.

We show that different reference frame perspectives induce different sets of subsystem observable algebras, which leads to a gauge-invariant, frame-dependent notion of subsystems and entanglement.
Such a QRF perspective does not inherit the distinction between subsystems in terms of the corresponding tensor factorizability of the kinematical Hilbert space and observable algebra.
Since the condition for this to occur is contingent on the choice of QRF, the notion of subsystem locality is frame-dependent.

Three notions are often assumed to be essentially equivalent, representing different facets of the same phenomenon.
We analyze them in general Friedmann-Lemaitre- Robertson-Walker space-times through the lens of geometric structures on the classical phase space.
The analysis shows that: (i) inflation does not play an essential role; classical behavior can emerge much more generally; (ii) the three notions are conceptually distinct; classicality can emerge in one sense but not in another.
