We give a deformation of the Weingarten calculus introduced by Benoît Collins and Piotr Sniady. We study the asymptotic behavior of Brownian motion on compact Lie groups in high dimensions and obtain new fluctuations results. Two new objects called the planar gaussian master field and the planar oriented master field are introduced here to describe the asymptotic behavior of the Yang-Mills measure as the dimension of the structure group is large.

Amplitudes in QFT and CFT

Faller, Josua 11 November 2019 (has links)
In dieser Dissertationsschrift werden Amplituden in QFTs und CFTs studiert. Zunächst wird mittels der »double copy«-Methode gezeigt, inwiefern Integranden von Gravitationsamplituden aus Integranden von Eichtheorien gewonnen werden können. Um diese Methode anzuwenden, bedarf es einer konkreten Darstellung der Eichtheorieintegranden, sodass die kinematischen Faktoren des Integranden die gleichen algebraischen Relationen erfüllen wie die Strukturkonstanten der Eichtheorie. Mithilfe dieser Methode werden Vierpunktsamplituden in N = 0 Supergravitation gekoppelt mit Yang-Mills in erster Ordnung der Störungsreihe berechnet, welche als asymptotische Zustände Gravitonen oder Gluonen positiver Helizität enthalten. Das Analogon der Amplituden in konform invarianten Theorien, genannt Mellinamplituden, wird anschließend im zweiten Teil diskutiert. Nicht nur durch ihre Beschreibung als Funktionen »lorentzinvarianter« Variablen, welche durch eine Art »LSZ-Reduktion« gewonnen werden, weisen Mellinamplituden eine formal heuristische Ähnlichkeit zu Amplituden auf, sondern auch können alle physikalischen Größen einer CFT aus ihnen berechnet werden. D.h., ebenso wie Amplituden einen Streuprozess vollständig charakterisieren, ist eine CFT eindeutig über ihre Mellinamplituden festgelegt. Fermionische Mellinamplituden wurden zum ersten Mal, in der Veröffentlichung worauf diese Dissertationsschrift basiert, studiert. Jede Komponente der fermionischen Mellinamplituden ist einer bestimmen Tensorstruktur zugeordnet, deren Polstruktur im einzelnen diskutiert wird. Es werden die analytische Eigenschaften der fermionischen Mellinamplituden der gemischten Vierpunktskorrelationsfunktion von zwei Fermionen und Skalaren, sowie von vier Fermionen studiert und darauffolgend werden diese Resultate durch störungstheoretische Rechnungen bei schwacher und starker Kopplung bestätigt. / In this thesis, amplitudes in QFT and CFT are studied. In the first chapter a modern technique to obtain integrands for gravity theories from gauge theory integrands is discussed. This formalism is called the doubly copy method and it can be applied if the gauge theory integrand is given in a specific representation where the kinematic numerator factors obey the same algebraic relations as the colour factors, e.g. the Jacobi identity. This method is applied to obtain the positive helicity sector of amplitudes in N = 0 supergravity coupled to Yang-Mills with external gravitons and gluons at one loop. Only the special case of four external particles is studied. Partial results are also obtained for pure Einstein-Yang-Mills amplitudes, where the axion and dilaton as virtual particles have been removed. In the second chapter, the natural analogue of amplitudes in CFTs is studied. These mathematical objects are called Mellin amplitudes. Mellin amplitudes can be understood as the CFT analogue of QFT amplitudes, because they are functions of “Lorentz invariant” quantities of their “momenta”. In addition all the CFT data is encoded in the Mellin amplitudes as all the data of a scattering process is included in usual amplitudes. The study of fermionic Mellin amplitudes has been carried out for the first time in the associated publication. These Mellin amplitudes have several components each associated to a certain tensor structure. The analytic properties of fermionic Mellin amplitudes corresponding to mixed four fermion-scalar conformal correlators and four fermion conformal correlators are deduced and finally these general results are confirmed by explicit perturbative calculations at weak and strong coupling.

Solitons on lattices and curved space-time

Kotecha, Vinay January 2001 (has links)
This thesis is concerned with solitons (solutions of certain nonlinear partial differential equations) in certain cases when the underlying space is either a lattice or curved. Chapter 2 of the thesis is concerned with the outcome of collisions between a kink (a 1-dimensional soliton) and an antikink for certain topological discrete (TD) systems. The systems considered are the TD sine-Gordon and the TD ø(^4) For the TD sine-Gordon system it is found that the kink can support an internal shape mode which plays an important role during the collisions. In particular, this mode can be excited during collisions and this leads to spectacular resonance effects. The outcome of any particular collision has sensitive dependence on the initial conditions and could be either a trapped kink-antikink state, a "reflection" or a "transmission”. Such resonance effects are already known to exist for the conventional discrete ø(^4) system, and the TD ø(^4) system is no different, though the results for the two are not entirely similar. Chapter 3 considers the question of the existence of explicit travelling kink solutions for lattice systems. In particular, an expression for such a solution for the integrable lattice sine-Gordon system is derived. In Chapter 4, by reducing the Yang-Mills equations on the (2 + 2)-dimensional ultrahyperbolic space-time, an integrable Yang-Mills-Higgs system on (2 + 1) dimensional de Sitter space-time is derived. It represents the curved space-time version of the Bogomolny equations for monopoles on R(^3) . Using twister methods, various explicit solutions with gauge groups U(l) and SU(2) are constructed. A multi-solution SU(2) solution is also presented.

Des théories quantiques de champ topologiques aux théories de jauge supersymétriques

Bossard, Guillaume 25 October 2007 (has links) (PDF)
Cette thèse est constituée de deux contributions scientifiques qui ont donné lieu à deux séries d'articles. On construit dans la première une symétrie vectorielle dans les théories cohomologiques via une généralisation de l'équation de Baulieu-Singer, qui définit avec l'opérateur BRST topologique un sous ensemble de générateurs de supersymétrie admettant une représentation qui détermine l'action de la théorie de manière unique.<br /><br />La seconde série propose une méthode pour renormaliser les théories supersymétriques de Yang-Mills en l'absence de schéma de régularisation préservant à la fois l'invariance de jauge et la supersymétrie. La prescription de renormalisation est obtenue en définissant deux opérateurs de Slavnov-Taylor compatibles respectivement pour l'invariance de jauge et la supersymétrie. La construction de ces derniers nécessite l'introduction de champs additionnels que nous avons appelés les champs d'ombre. Nous avons ainsi été en mesure de démontrer la renormalisabilité des théories de Yang-Mills supersymétriques et l'annulation de la fonction beta dans le cas de la supersymétrie maximale. <br /><br />Après une brève introduction, le second chapitre propose une revue de la théorie de Yang-Mills de type cohomologique en huit dimensions. Le chapitre suivant examine les réductions dimensionnelles en sept et six dimensions de cette théorie. Le dernier chapitre propose quand à lui des résultats indépendants, sur une interprétation géométrique des champs d'ombre, ainsi que des travaux non publiés sur la gravité topologique en quatre dimensions, des considérations sur la symétrie superconforme et enfin la solution des contraintes dans le super-espace twisté.

Yang-Mills Theory in Gauge-Invariant Variables and Geometric Formulation of Quantum Field Theories

Slizovskiy, Sergey January 2010 (has links)
In Part I we are dealing with effective description of Yang-Mills theories based on gauge-invarint variables. For pure Yang-Mills we study the spin-charge separation varibles. The dynamics in these variables resembles the Skyrme-Faddeev model. Thus the spin-charge separation is an important intermediate step between the fundamental Yang-Mills theory and the low-energy effective models, used to model the low-energy dynamics of gluons. Similar methods may be useful for describing the Electroweak sector of the Standard Model in terms of gauge-invariant field variables called supercurrents. We study the geometric structure of spin-charge separation in 4D Euclidean space (paper III) and elaborate onconnection with gravity toy model. Such reinterpretation gives a way to see how effective flat background metric is created in toy gravity model by studying the appearance of dimension-2 condensate in the Yang-Mills (paper IV). For Electroweak theory we derive the effective gauge-invariant Lagrangian by doing the Kaluza-Klein reduction of higher-dimensional gravity with 3-brane, thus making explicit the geometric interpretation for gauge-invariant supercurrents. The analogy is then made more precise in the framework of exact supergravity solutions. Thus, we interpret the Higgs effect as spontaneous breaking of Kaluza-Klein gauge symmetry and this leads to interpretation of Higgs field as a dilaton (papers I and II). In Part II of the thesis we study rather simple field theories, called “geometric” or “instantonic”. Their defining property is exact localization on finite-dimensional spaces – the moduli spaces of instantons. These theories allow to account exactly for non-linearity of space of fields, in this respect they go beyond the standard Gaussian perturbation theory. In paper V we show how to construct a geometric theory of chiral boson by embedding it into the geometric field theory. In Paper VI we elaborate on the simplest geometric field theory – the supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics and construct new non-perturbative topological observables that have a transparent meaning both in geometric and in the Hamiltonian formalisms. In Paper VII we are motivated by making perturbations away from the simple instantonic limit. For that we need to carefully define the observables that are quadratic in momenta and develop the way to compute them in geometric framework. These correspond geometrically to bivector fields (or, in general, the polyvector fields). We investigate the local limit of polyvector fields and compare the geometric calculation with free-field approach.

In particular, we study energy transfer and equilibration processes among the gauge and Higgs sectors, calculate the maximal Liapunov exponents regarding to random initial conditions in the regime of weak coupling, where one expects them to be related to the high-temperature static plasmon damping rate, and investigate their energy and Higgs self-coupling parameter dependence. We further examine finite-time and finite-size errors, value the impact of the Higgs fields on the instabilty of constant non-abelian magnetic fields and comment on the implications of our obtained results for the thermalization properties of gauge fields at finite temperature in the presence of matter.

The Nicolai Map and its Application in Supersymmetric Field Theories

Malcha, Hannes 12 May 2023 (has links)
Supersymmetrische Feldtheorien können durch eine nicht-lineare und nicht-lokale Transformation der bosonischen Felder charakterisiert werden, der Nicolai-Abbildung. Sie bildet das wechselwirkende Funktionalmaß so auf das Maß der zugehörigen freien Theorie ab, dass die Jacobi-Determinante gleich dem Produkt der fermionischen Determinanten ist. Wir untersuchen die Nicolai-Abbildungen des 2-dimenionalen Wess-Zumino Modells und der N=1 sowie N=4 super Yang-Mills Theorien. Wir geben einen konstruktiven Beweis für die Existenz der Nicolai-Abbildung in diesen Theorien. Der Beweis beinhaltet die Herleitung des infinitesimalen Generators der inversen Abbildung, dem R-Operator. Wir benutzen diesen Operator, um die Nicolai-Abbildung im 2-dimensionalen Wess-Zumino Modell bis zur fünften Ordnung in der Kopplung zu berechnen. In der N=1 super Yang-Mills Theorie führen wir die Begriffe der on- bzw. off-shell Nicolai-Abbildungen ein. Die on-shell Abbildung existiert in d=3,4,6 und 10 Dimensionen aber nur für die Landau Eichung. Wir bestimmen sie bis zur vierten Ordnung. Die off-shell Abbildung existiert nur in d=4 Dimensionen aber für allgemeine Eichungen. Wir berechnen sie in der axialen Eichung bis zur zweiten Ordnung. Für die N=4 super Yang-Mills Theorie geben wir den R-Operator an und zeigen, dass man die N=4 Nicolai-Abbildung durch dimensionale Reduktion aus der N=1 Abbildung erhält. Inverse Nicolai-Abbildungen bilden Quantenkorrelationsfunktionen bosonischer Observablen auf freie Korrelationsfunktionen ab. Daher gestatten sie eine Quantisierung supersymmetrischer Theorien ohne die Verwendung von Fermionen oder Geistern. Wir benutzten diese Eigenschaft, um den Vakuum-Erwartungswert der Maldacena-Wilson Geraden bis zur sechsten Ordnung zu berechnen. Im zweiten Teil dieser Arbeit bestimmen wir die explizite Form aller Felder im 1/2-BPS Energie-Impuls-Tensor Multiplet in N=4 super Yang-Mills. Dieses Multiplet enthält den R-Symmetrie Fluss und den Energie-Impuls-Tensor. / Supersymmetric field theories can be characterized by the existence of a non-linear and non-local transformation of the bosonic fields, the Nicolai map. It maps the interacting functional measure to that of a free theory such that the Jacobian determinant of the transformation equals the product of the fermionic determinants. In this thesis, we study the Nicolai maps of the 2-dimensional Wess-Zumino model, N=1 super Yang-Mills and N=4 super Yang-Mills. We give a constructive proof for the existence of the Nicolai map in these theories. The proof includes the derivation of the infinitesimal generator of the inverse Nicolai map, called the R-operator. We use this operator to compute the Nicolai map of the 2-dimensional Wess-Zumino model up to the fifth order in the coupling. In N=1 super Yang-Mills, we introduce the notion of on- and off-shell Nicolai maps. The on-shell Nicolai map of N=1 super Yang-Mills exists in d=3,4,6 and 10 dimensions but is constrained to the Landau gauge. We compute this map up to the fourth order. The off-shell Nicolai map exists only in d=4 dimensions but for general gauges. We compute it in the axial gauge up to the second order. In N=4 super Yang-Mills, we give the R-operator and show that the Nicolai map can be obtained from the Nicolai map of 10-dimensional N=1 super Yang-Mills by dimensional reduction. Inverse Nicolai maps map quantum correlation functions of bosonic observables to free correlation functions. Hence, Nicolai maps allow for a fermion (and ghost) free quantization of supersymmetric (gauge) theories. We apply this property to compute the vacuum expectation value of the infinite straight line Maldacena-Wilson loop in N=4 super Yang-Mills to the sixth order. Thus extending the previous perturbative result by one order. In the second part of this thesis, we derive the explicit field content of the 1/2-BPS stress tensor multiplet in N=4 super Yang-Mills, which contains the R-symmetry current and the energy-momentum tensor.
