In this study, we investigated the influence of the topological defects space–time with a spiral dislocation on a spin-zero boson field by using the Duffin–Kemmer–Petiau (DKP) equation. To be more specific, we solved the generalized spin-zero DKP equation in the presence of a spiral dislocation exactly. We derived the wave function and corresponding energy eigenvalues for two cases, in the absence and presence of a static potential by using analytical methods. We numerically demonstrated the effect of the spiral dislocation on the solutions.

In this paper, we study the covariant Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau (DKP) equation in the cosmic-string space-time and consider the interaction of a DKP field with the gravitational field produced by topological defects in order to examine the influence of topology on this system. We solve the spin-zero DKP oscillator in the presence of the Cornell interaction with a rotating coordinate system in an exact analytical manner for nodeless and one-node states by proposing a proper ansatz solution.

The relativistic Duffin–Kemmer–Petiau equation for relativistic spin-1 particles with position-dependent mass in the presence of a vector Kratzer-type potential and the absence of a scalar potential is studied analytically. The energy eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions are obtained using the wave function ansatz approach.

The Faddeev (Newton–Wigner) propagator K for the heterotic superstring theory is derived from the Wheeler–DeWitt equation for the wave function of the Universe Ψ, obtained in the four-dimensional (mini-superspace) Friedmann space-time ds2=dt2-a2(t)dx2, after reduction from the ten-action. The effect of higher-derivative terms ℛ2 is to break the local invariance under time reparametrization to a global symmetry t→λt, and consequently there are no ghost or gauge-fixing contributions, a functional integral over the (constant) Lagrange multiplier λ being sufficient to enforce the Hamiltonian constraint implicitly. After Wick rotation of the time, [Formula: see text], the only physically acceptable solution for K decreases exponentially on the Planck time-scale ~ t P , explaining from the quantum cosmological viewpoint why the signature of space-time is Lorentzian rather than Euclidean. This is analogous to the case of the (two-dimensional) free relativistic scalar particle, discussed recently by Redmount and Suen, who found that the propagator decreases exponentially outside the light-cone on the scale of the Compton wavelength of the particle (in accordance with the Heisenberg indeterminacy principle). These two seemingly different forms of acausality are thus physically excluded in the same way. The propagator for the Schwarzschild black hole of mass M is also obtained from the Schrödinger equation for the wave function on the apparent horizon, due to Tomimatsu, and the Hawking temperature T H =(8π M)-1 is derived from the Euclidean form of this equation.

AbstractWe propose that space-time results from collapse of the wave function of macroscopic objects, in quantum dynamics. We first argue that there ought to exist a formulation of quantum theory which does not refer to classical time. We then propose such a formulation by invoking an operator Minkowski space-time on the Hilbert space. We suggest relativistic spontaneous localisation as the mechanism for recovering classical space-time from the underlying theory. Quantum interference in time could be one possible signature for operator time, and in fact may have been already observed in the laboratory, on attosecond time scales. A possible prediction of our work seems to be that interference in time will not be seen for ‘time slit’ separations significantly larger than 100 attosecond, if the ideas of operator time and relativistic spontaneous localisation are correct.

By demanding the existence of a globally invariant ground-state solution of the Wheeler–De Witt equation (Schrödinger equation) for the wave function of the Universe Ψ, obtained from the heterotic superstring theory, in the four-dimensional Friedmann space-time, we prove that the cosmological vacuum energy has to be zero.

The Ghirardi–Rimini–Weber (GRW) theory is a physical theory that, when combined with a suitable ontology, provides an explanation of quantum mechanics. The so-called collapse of the wave function is problematic in conventional quantum theory but not in the GRW theory, in which it is governed by a stochastic law. A possible ontology is the flash ontology, according to which matter consists of random points in space-time, called flashes. The joint distribution of these points, a point process in space-time, is the topic of this work. The mathematical results concern mainly the existence and uniqueness of this distribution for several variants of the theory. Particular attention is paid to the relativistic version of the GRW theory that was developed in 2004.
