Links. Relating Different Physical Systems Through the Common QFT Algebraic Structure
In this report I review some aspects of the algebraic structure of QFT related with the doubling of the degrees of freedom of the system under study. I show how such a doubling is related to the characterizing...

Searching for A Semiclassical Shor’s Algorithm
We explore the feasibility of a two-step semiclassical approximation of Shor’s quantum algorithm based on coherent states. The first step is the implementation of a classical time-evolution for the spin 1/2 sy...

Coherent Dynamics and Solitary Waves in Ordered Monolayers
In a recent communication(1) we have studied the energy transfer in J-aggregates, and we have shown that the dynamical formation of coherent solitary waves may explain and fit the observations. In this chapter we...
