Entanglement, Symmetrisation Principle
The Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP), reflecting the spin-statistics connection, represents a fundamental principle of the modern physics. Even if today there are no compelling reasons to doubt its validity, it still spurs a lively debate on its possible limits, as testified by the abundant contributions found in the literature and in topical conferences. We present a method of searching for...

Entanglement, Symmetrisation Principle
The characterization of entanglement is a fundamental issue for
Quantum Information Theory. But the definition of entanglement depends
on the notion of locality, and thus on the tensor product structure of
the state space of the composite system. This notion is affected by
the presence of superselection rules that restrict the accessible
Hilbert space to a direct sum of subspaces. ...

Entanglement, Symmetrisation Principle
I show how basic questions of quantum mechanics can be investigated for systems in high energy physics. In particular the massive kaon-antikaon system is specially suitable as it offers a unique laboratory to tests various aspects of particle physics as well to test the foundations of quantum mechanics (e.g tests of Bell inequalities, local realistic theories, quantum marking and erasure...

Entanglement, Symmetrisation Principle
There is an energy-parity symmetry hidden in the Liouville equation, which resembles the one proposed recently by Randall and Sundrum as protective symmetry for the cosmological constant. We argue heuristically that this symmetry should be broken due to the coarse-graining which is inherent in physics, say, of the Standard Model, when the fundamental scale related to spacetime is the Planck...

Entanglement, Symmetrisation Principle
We discuss the origin of exotic statistics, in the sense of Tsallis, in the context of certain models of string cosmology, in which the dilaton expectation value, and hence the string coupling, are "fuzzy".Situations like this can characterize some versions of string spacetime foam. The effect of such stochastically fluctuating spacetimes on particle statistics is examined, determining the...

The central theme of the talk is the study of a quantum particle, constrained to move
in the neighborhood of a space curve, and its backreaction on the curve, viewed, in its turn, as a quantum system. In particular, the effect of this symbiosis on the canonical commutation relations of the 1+1 effective quantum field theory of the curve is studied, and potential implications are outlined.
