Problem of constructing discrete and finite quantum theory
  We consider in detail an approach (proposed by the author earlier) where quantum states are described by elements of a linear space over a Galois field, and operators of physical quantities - by linear operators in this space. The notion of Galois fields (which is extremely simple and elegant) is discussed in detail and we also discuss the conditions when our description gives the same predictions as the conventional one. In quantum theory based on a Galois field, all operators are well defined and divergencies cannot not exist in principle. A particle and its antiparticle are described by the same modular irreducible representation of the symmetry algebra. This automatically explains the existence of antiparticles and shows that a particle and its antiparticle are the different states of the same object. As a consequence, a new symmetry arises, and the structure of the theory is considerably simplified. In particular, one can work with only creation operators or only annihilation ones since they are no more independent. In our approach the problem arises whether the existence of neutral elementary particles (e.g. the photon) is compatible with the usual relation between spin and statistics, or in other words whether neutral particles can be elementary or only composite.
