Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, mathematical modelling is an indispensable tool for the successful description and simulation of systems in natural sciences and engineering. Within the field of theoretical physics, applications of relativity and quantum theory are at the forefront of active research and can also be combined with applied mathematics. Numerical relativity, which includes dealing with gravitational wave simulation, and quantum field theory, which describes higher order perturbative corrections of interacting particles, are utilized in  specific mathematical models of ongoing and outstanding importance. Moreover, models for global positioning systems with their engineering challenges, or simulations of elementary mechanical devices in strong gravitational fields that display unprecedented phenomena, are intriguing physical systems to model.

This Special Issue welcomes contributions on applications of relativity and quantum theory, aiming at the description and simulation of interesting physical systems in both realms.

In this paper, we introduce new classes of functions defined within the open unit disk by integrating the concepts of (λ,γ)-symmetrical functions, generalized Janowski functions, and quantum calculus. We derive a structural formula and a representation theorem for [...] Read more.
In this paper, we introduce new classes of functions defined within the open unit disk by integrating the concepts of (λ,γ)-symmetrical functions, generalized Janowski functions, and quantum calculus. We derive a structural formula and a representation theorem for the class Sqλ,γ(x,y,z). Utilizing convolution techniques and quantum calculus, we investigate convolution conditions supported by examples and corollary, establishing sufficient conditions. Additionally, we derive properties related to coefficient estimates, which further elucidate the characteristics of the defined function classes. Full article

This paper presents a quantum formulation for classical abstract dynamical systems (ADS), defined by coupled sets of first-order differential equations. They are referred to as “abstract” because their dynamical variables can be of different interrelated natures, not necessarily corresponding to physics, such as populations, socioeconomic variables, behavioral variables, etc. A classical linear Hamiltonian can be derived for ADS by using Dirac’s dynamics for singular Hamiltonian systems. Also, a corresponding first-order Schrödinger equation (which involves the existence of a system Planck constant particular of each system) can be derived from this Hamiltonian. However, Madelung’s reinterpretation of quantum mechanics, followed by the Bohm and Hiley work, produces no further information about the mathematical formulation of ADS. However, a classical quadratic Hamiltonian can also be derived for ADS, as well as a corresponding second-order Schrödinger equation. In this case, the Madelung reinterpretation of quantum mechanics provides a quantum Hamiltonian that does provide the quantum formulation for ADS, which provides new quantum variables interrelated dynamically with the classical variables. An application case is presented: the one-dimensional autonomous system given by the logistic dynamics. The differences between the classical and the quantum trajectories are highlighted in the context of this application case. Full article
