Massive or Massless Scalar Field and Confinement

Generalization of QCD motivated classical SU(2) Yang–Mills theory coupled to the scalar field is discussed. The massive scalar field, corresponding the scalar glueball, provides a confining potential for static, point–like, external sources. In case of massless scalar field screening solutions are found. However, there is a confining sector as well. Both, massive and massless confining solution...

A Spinorial Perspective on Massless Photons

We exploit the fact that, in Minkowski space-time, γ-matrices are possibly more fundamental than the metric to describe how gauge invariance at perturbative level enforces a Lagrangian for spinor electrodynamics with massless photons. The term quadratic in the potential arises naturally in the gauge-fixed Lagrangian but has vanishing coefficient.

Massive Particles from Massless Spinors

Spinors are lightlike. How do they combine to make massive particles? We visit the zoo of Lagrangian singularities, or caustics, in spacetime projections from spin spacethe phase space of lightlike, 8spinor flows. We find that the species living there are the elementary particles. Codimension J = (1, 2, 3, 4) phase singularities vortex lines, sheets, tubes, and knots, are classified by the Coxe...

HOW MASSLESS ARE MASSLESS FIELDS IN AdSd

Massless fields of generic Young symmetry type in AdSd space are analyzed. It is demonstrated that in contrast to massless fields in Minkowski space whose physical degrees of freedom transform in irreps of o(d−2) algebra, AdS massless mixed symmetry fields reduce to a number of irreps of o(d− 2) algebra. From the field theory perspective this means that not every massless field in flat space ad...

On SQCD with massive and massless flavors

We consider supersymmetric QCD in the free magnetic phase with massless and massive flavors. The theory has a supersymmetry breaking pseudo-moduli space of vacua and a runaway behavior far away from the origin. A two-loop computation reveals that the origin is destabilized and there is no meta-stable SUSY breaking solution. We also study the embedding of this model in type IIA string theory and...
