Relativistic Green functions in a plane wave gravitational background

We consider a massive relativistic particle in the background of a gravitational plane wave. The corresponding Green functions for both spinless and spin 1/2 cases, previously computed by A. Barducci and R. Giachetti \cite{Barducci3}, are reobtained here by alternative methods, as for example, the Fock-Schwinger proper-time method and the algebraic method. In analogy to the electromagnetic case, we show that for a gravitational plane wave background a semiclassical approach is also sufficient to provide the exact result, though the lagrangian involved is far from being a quadratic one.

Scattering and Bound State Green's Functions on a Plane via so(2,1) Lie Algebra

We calculate the Green's functions for the particle-vortex system, for two anyons on a plane with and without a harmonic regulator and in a uniform magnetic field. These Green's functions which describe scattering or bound states (depending on the specific potential in each case) are obtained exactly using an algebraic method related to the SO(2,1) Lie group. From these Green's functions we obtain the corresponding wave functions and for the bound states we also find the energy spectra.

Quantum Oscillators in the Canonical Coherent States

The main characteristics of the quantum oscillator coherent states including the two-particle Calogero interaction are investigated. We show that these Calogero coherent states are the eigenstates of the second-order differential annihilation operator which is deduced via R-deformed Heisenberg algebra or Wigner-Heisenberg algebraic technique and correspond exactly to the pure uncharged-bosonic states. They possess the important properties of non-orthogonality and completeness. The minimum uncertainty relation for the Calogero interaction coherent states is investigated. New sets of even and odd Wigner oscillator coherent states are pointed out.
