The Importance of Boundary Conditions in Quantum Mechanics [PDF]
We discuss the role of boundary conditions in determining the physical content of the solutions of the Schrodinger equation. We study the standing-wave, the ``in,'' the ``out,'' and the purely outgoing boundary conditions. As well, we rephrase Feynman's $

Phenomenological Quantum-Electrodynamics
The quantization of the pure radiation field in a uniformly moving refractive medium is carried through both in the Hamiltonian and in the symmetrical four-dimensional form. The total energy and momentum are diagonalized. For a medium velocity larger than $\frac{c}{n}$ there occur photons with negative energy.

Run-away solutions in relativistic spin 1/2 quantum electrodynamics [PDF]
The existence of run-away solutions in classical and non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics is reviewed. It is shown that the less singular high energy behavior of relativistic spin 1/2 quantum electrodynamics precludes an analogous behavior in that ...

Cavity quantum electrodynamics of strongly correlated electron systems: A no-go theorem for photon condensation [PDF]
In spite of decades of work it has remained unclear whether or not superradiant quantum phases, referred to here as photon condensates, can occur in equilibrium.

Offshell quantum electrodynamics
More than twenty years have passed since the threads of the `proper time formalism' in covariant classical and quantum mechanics were brought together to construct a canonical formalism for the relativistic mechanics of many particles. Drawing on the work of Fock, Stueckelberg, Nambu, Schwinger, and Feynman, the formalism was raised from the status of ...

Strong coupling of a single photon to a superconducting qubit using circuit quantum electrodynamics [PDF]
The interaction of matter and light is one of the fundamental processes occurring in nature, and its most elementary form is realized when a single atom interacts with a single photon.

Polaritonics: from microcavities to sub-wavelength confinement
Following the initial success of cavity quantum electrodynamics in atomic systems, strong coupling between light and matter excitations is now achieved in several solid-state set-ups.

Quantum electrodynamics with anisotropic scaling: Heisenberg-Euler action and Schwinger pair production in the bilayer graphene [PDF]
We discuss quantum electrodynamics emerging in the vacua with anisotropic scaling. Systems with anisotropic scaling were suggested by Horava in relation to the quantum theory of gravity.

On Quantum Corrections to Chern-Simons Spinor Electrodynamics [PDF]
We make a detailed investigation on the quantum corrections to Chern-Simons spinor electrodynamics. Starting from Chern-Simons spinor quantum electrodynamics with the Maxwell term $-1/(4\gamma){\int}d^3x F_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu}$ and by calculating the ...
