• Abstract: In this work, we explore the implications of applying the formalism of symplectic geometry to quantum mechanics, particularly focusing on many-particle systems. We extend the concept of a symplectic indicator of entanglement, originally introduced by Sawicki et al. \cite{sawicki2011}, to these complex systems. Specifically, we demonstrate that the restriction of the symplectic structure to manifolds comprising all states characterized by isospectral reduced one-particle density matrices, \( M_{\mu(\psi)}^0 \), exhibits degeneracy for non-separable states. We prove that the degree of degeneracy at any given state \( \ket{\varphi} \in M_{\mu(\psi)}^0 \) corresponds to the degree of degeneracy of the symplectic form \( \omega \) when restricted to the manifold of states that are locally unitary equivalent with \( \ket{\varphi} \). Additionally, we provide a physical interpretation of this symplectic indicator of entanglement, articulating it as an inherent ambiguity within the associated classical dynamical framework. Our findings underscore the pivotal role of symplectic geometry in elucidating entanglement properties in quantum mechanics and suggest avenues for further exploration into the geometric structures underlying quantum state spaces.

  Examples are phase transitions in the thermodynamic limit, the emergence of classical mechanics from quantum theory at large action, and continuum quantum field theory arising from renormalization group fixed points. We present a flexible modeling tool for the limit of theories: soft inductive limits constituting a generalization of inductive limits of Banach spaces.

  We review two approaches to the definition of the Hilbert space and evolution in mechanical theories with local time-reparametrization invariance. We discuss in which sense both approaches exhibit an inner product that is gauge-fixed via an operator version of the usual Faddeev-Popov procedure. We note that a conditional probability interpretation of the physical states is possible, so that both formalisms are examples of quantum mechanics with a relational dynamics.

  We study the phenomenon of transmission across the singularity that separates the two half-cylinders.

This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.

• Emergence of classical behavior in the early universe [68.8204255655161]
  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.
