Facts and Fictions about Anti deSitter Spacetimes with Local Qantum Matter

It is natural to analyse the AdS$_{d+1}$-CQFT$_{d}$ correspondence in the context of the conformal- compactification and covering formalism. In this way one obtains additional inside about Rehren's rigorous algebraic holography in connection with the degree of freedom issue which in turn allows to illustrates the subtle but important differences beween the original string theory-based Maldacena conjecture and Rehren's theorem in the setting of an intrinsic field-coordinatization-free formulation of algebraic QFT. I also discuss another more generic type of holography related to light fronts which seems to be closer to 't Hooft's original ideas on holography. This in turn is naturally connected with the generic concept of ``Localization Entropy'', a quantum pre-form of Bekenstein's classical black-hole surface entropy.Comment: this final version is identical to the one which appeared in Commun.

Localization and the interface between quantum mechanics, quantum field theory and quantum gravity I (The two antagonistic localizations and their asymptotic compatibility)

It is shown that there are significant conceptual differences between QM and QFT which make it difficult to view the latter as just a relativistic extension of the principles of QM. At the root of this is a fundamental distiction between Born-localization in QM (which in the relativistic context changes its name to Newton-Wigner localization) and modular localization which is the localization underlying QFT, after one separates it from its standard presentation in terms of field coordinates. The first comes with a probability notion and projection operators, whereas the latter describes causal propagation in QFT and leads to thermal aspects of locally reduced finite energy states. The Born-Newton-Wigner localization in QFT is only applicable asymptotically and the covariant correlation between asymptotic in and out localization projectors is the basis of the existence of an invariant scattering matrix. In this first part of a two part essay the modular localization (the intrinsic content of field localization) and its philosophical consequences take the center stage. Important physical consequences of vacuum polarization will be the main topic of part II. Both parts together form a rather comprehensive presentation of known consequences of the two antagonistic localization concepts, including the those of its misunderstandings in string theory.Comment: 63 pages corrections, reformulations, references adde

Set-Valued Analysis

This Special Issue contains eight original papers with a high impact in various domains of set-valued analysis. Set-valued analysis has made remarkable progress in the last 70 years, enriching itself continuously with new concepts, important results, and special applications. Different problems arising in the theory of control, economics, game theory, decision making, nonlinear programming, biomathematics, and statistics have strengthened the theoretical base and the specific techniques of set-valued analysis. The consistency of its theoretical approach and the multitude of its applications have transformed set-valued analysis into a reference field of modern mathematics, which attracts an impressive number of researchers
