After a brief digression on the current landscape of theoretical physics and on some open questions pertaining to coherence with experimental results, still to be settled, it is shown that the properties of the deformed Minkowski space lead to a plurality of potential physical phenomena that should occur, provided that the resulting formalisms can be considered as useful models for the description of some aspects of physical reality. A list is given of available experimental evidence not easy to be interpreted, at present, by means of the more established models, such as the standard model with its variants aimed at overcoming its descriptive limits; this evidence could be useful to verify the predictions stemming from the properties of the deformed Minkowski space. The list includes anomalies in the double-slit-like experiments, nuclear metamorphosis, torsional antennas, as well as the physical effect of the “geometric vacuum” (as defined in analogy with quantum vacuum), in the absence of external electromagnetic field, when crossing critical thresholds of energy parameter values, energy density in space and energy density in time. Concrete opportunities are suggested for an experimental exploration of phenomena, either already performed but still lacking a widely accepted explanation, or conceivable in the application of the approach here presented, but not tackled until now. A tentative list is given with reference to experimental infrastructures already in operation, the performances of which can be expanded with limited additional resources.

Among many open questions in theoretical physics, consistent quantum gravity theory is still a major issue to be solved. Recent major works in phase transitions of black holes (BH) can be helpful for quantum interpretation of classical gravity. We study the new effective method to discuss the thermodynamic phase transitions onto well renowned regular BHs. Ordinary approaches of phase transitions depend upon equation of state and it is impossible to obtain all critical points with ordinary approaches. This study is derived from the slope of temperature versus entropy and it provides the possibility of finding all the critical points analytically. This technique provides pressure, which is different from standard relation of pressure and independent of other thermodynamical relations. We discuss some issues in ordinary methods and provide an easy approach to investigate the critical behavior of thermodynamical quantities. We find out the phase transitions points and horizon radii of non-physical range for BHs. We also use the new thermodynamical relations to briefly study well-known Joule–Thomson (JT) effect on regular BH.

We argue that the so-called doubly special relativity (DSR), recently proposed by Amelino-Camelia et al.1,2 with deformed boost transformations identical with the formulae for κ-deformed kinematics in bicrossproduct basis is classical special relativity in nonlinear disguise. The choice of symmetric composition law for deformed four-momenta as advocated in Refs. 1 and 2 implies that DSR is obtained by considering the nonlinear four-momenta basis of classical Poincaré algebra and it does not lead to noncommutative space–time. We also show how to construct two large classes of doubly special relativity theories — generalizing the choice in Refs. 1 and 2 and the one presented by Magueijo and Smolin.3 The older version of deformed relativistic kinematics, differing essentially from classical theory in the coalgebra sector and leading to noncommutative κ-deformed Minkowski space is provided by quantum κ-deformation of Poincaré symmetries.

A one dimensional simulation model of suspended sediment transport in a tidal river was developed with erosion, deposition, and thickening processes of sediments, and inflow from tributaries. This model uses the explicit leapfrog method and its lower end boundary of the river is extended into the sea to close the boundary for calculation. Laboratory experiments were performed to determine erosional and depositional rates of sediments and to study the sediment thickening process in the river under various concentrations of chlorinity and suspended solids. Numerical simulation results with the parameter values obtained experimentally did not show good agreement with observed data. Modifying the parameter values according to physical phenomena was necessary to obtain good agreement in between. After the modification, computation results during a fortnightly cycle explain satisfactorily the sediment transport phenomena in this river.

In the past, the main focus for retailers was that of mass production and sales. These were times when retailers were in the advantage seat as consumer demands were exceeding the actual supply. However, today’s market is different story. The focus of businesses today has shifted to create a great customer experience and give value to the customers, not just selling them products and services. Technology played a crucial role as it has made it easier for customers to be well informed. Hyken(2016) argues that customers today are smarter, hence their expectations are higher than even before. He also added that since large companies have “educated customers of what a great customer service looks like, now customers are have come to expect it” (Hyken, 2016). Lashbrooke(2016) also has his views on this subject as he states that since consumer demands are ever increasing, without a doubt it is creating a shift on the was businesses are conducted. He added that today’s customer needs are “forcing change upon businesses’ out-dated customer services and procedures” (Lashbrooke, 2016). Chang, Dong and Sun (2014)defined customer experience as “the customers’ perceptual and emotional responses brought about in the process of interaction with companies’ products, services and other elements”. Every experience is becoming a digital experience as things that are perceived as being ‘ordinary’ are becoming more intelligent and smart (Gregory, 2015). Hsu and Lin (2016) defined smart objects as a “physical embodiment with communication functionality, possessing a unique identifier, some basic computing capabilities and a way to detect physical phenomena and to activate actions having an effect on physical reality”. The increasing number of smart objects that are connected to the internet have gave rise to the concept of Internet of Things (Hsu and Lin, 2016).Gregory (2015) argues that while the concept of Inter of Things may be seen like a dream and “it is becoming a reality faster than most of us can comprehend”. Retailers that fail to realise such fact will open the doors for their competitors, ending up in losing the competitive advantage in such diverse and complex market. Gierej (2017) argues that Internet of Things is causing companies to redesign their products and services in order to survive in today’s market.

Since the beginning of physics, time is the duration of material changes. We measure time with clocks. The notion of time in Newton physics, Einstein’s relativity, and quantum physics are different despite we always measure the same time with the same apparatuses that are clocks. We showed in this article that the act of the measurement done by the observer is generating duration. Time as duration is the result of the interaction between the observer and physical reality via clocks. In the universe, only changes exist. Changes have no duration on their own. Time as duration is born with the measurement done by the observer. Duration is relative and depends on the variable energy density of time-invariant superfluid quantum space that is the carrier of EPR-type entanglement.

This book addresses Nobel Laureate Frank Wilczek’s challenge that “ascending from the ant’s-eye view to the God’s-eye view of physical reality is the most profound challenge for fundamental physics in the next 100 years”, by contesting the dynamical universe paradigm in its entirety. Most of the book is devoted to showing that given the adynamical block universe approach called Relational Blockworld, the current impasse of theoretical physics and philosophy/foundations of physics can be resolved, including the mystery of time as experienced and how that experience relates to the physical universe. This chapter sets the scene for the rest of the work, including defining its audience and sketching how each can read the work successfully. It describes the division of each chapter into three parts: a main thread, a thread devoted to the philosophy of physics, and a thread devoted to foundational physics.

The solitons and other solutions illustrate nondiffractive and nondispersive spatio-temporal localized packets of wave propagating in the media of optical Kerr. In this paper, solitons, elliptic function and other solutions of dimensionless time-dependent paraxial wave model are constructed via employing three mathematical techniques, namely, the improved simple equation technique, [Formula: see text]-expansion technique and modified extended direct algebraic technique. These wave solutions have key applications and help to understand the physical phenomena of this wave model. By giving appropriate parameter values, different types of solitons structures can be depicted graphically. Several precise solutions and computations have proved the straightforwardness, consistency and power of the these techniques.

Newtonian Quantum Gravity (NQG) unifies quantum physics with Newton's theory of gravity and calculates the so-called “general relativistic” phenomena more precisely and in a much simpler way than General Relativity, whose complicated theoretical construct is no longer needed. Newton's theory of gravity is less accurate than Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. Famous examples are the precise predictions of General Relativity at binary pulsars. This is the reason why relativistic physicists claim that there can be no doubt that Einstein's theory of relativity correctly describes our physical reality. With the example of the famous “Hulse-Taylor binary” (also known as PSR 1913 + 16 or PSR B1913 + 16), the author proves that the so-called “general relativistic phenomena” observed at this binary solar system can be calculated without having any knowledge on relativistic physics. According to philosophical and epistemological criteria, this should not be possible, if Einstein's theory of relativity indeed described our physical reality. Einstein obviously merely developed an alternative method to calculate these phenomena without quantum physics. The reason was that in those days quantum physics was not yet generally taken into account. It is not the first time that a lack of knowledge of the underlying physical phenomena has to be compensated by complicated mathematics. Einstein's theory of general relativity indirectly already includes additional quantum physical effects of gravitation. This is the reason why it cannot be possible to unite Einstein's theory of general relativity with quantum physics, unless one uses “mathematical tricks” that make the additional quantum physical effects disappear again in the end.

A q-deformed version of classical analysis is given to quantum spaces of physical importance, i.e. Manin plane, q-deformed Euclidean space in three or four dimensions, and q-deformed Minkowski space. The subject is presented in a rather complete and self-contained way. All relevant notions are introduced and explained in detail. The different possibilities to realize the objects of q-deformed analysis are discussed and their elementary properties are studied. In this manner attention is focused on star products, q-deformed tensor products, q-deformed translations, q-deformed partial derivatives, dual pairings, q-deformed exponentials, and q-deformed integration. The main concern of this work is to show that these objects fit together in a consistent framework, which is suitable to formulate physical theories on quantum spaces.
