Exact Renormalization Groups As a Form of Entropic Dynamics
Published 2018-01-01“…The Renormalization Group (RG) is a set of methods that have been instrumental in tackling problems involving an infinite number of degrees of freedom, such as, for example, in quantum field theory and critical phenomena. What all these methods have in common—which is what explains their success—is that they allow a systematic search for those degrees of freedom that happen to be relevant to the phenomena in question. …”

Efficient world-line-based quantum Monte Carlo method without Hubbard–Stratonovich transformation
Published 2022-05-01“…Abstract By precisely writing down the matrix element of the local Boltzmann operator ( $${\mathrm{e}}^{-\tau h}$$ e - τ h , where $$h$$ h is the Hermitian conjugate pairs of off-diagonal operators), we have proposed a new path integral formulation for quantum field theory and developed a corresponding Monte Carlo algorithm. …”

Comments on the Transplanckian Censorship Conjecture
Published 2023-05-01“…We consider some aspects of tunneling to an isolated ground state in the presence of time-varying fields, in quantum mechanics and quantum field theory in the absence of gravitation, and note that lifetimes are typically enormous; in fact, there is often a finite probability for the system to remain eternally in its original state. …”

Traveling wave solutions, numerical solutions, and stability analysis of the (2+1) conformal time-fractional generalized q-deformed sinh-Gordon equation
Published 2024-03-01“…The two-dimensional conformal time-fractional generalized qq-deformed sinh-Gordon equation has been used to model a variety of physical systems, including soliton propagation in asymmetric media, nonlinear waves in optical fibers, quantum field theory, and condensed matter physics. The equation is able to capture the complex dynamics of these systems and has been shown to be a powerful tool for studying them. …”
