Diffeomorphism group and conformal fields
Conformal fields are a new class of V ect(N) modules which are more general than tensor fields. The corresponding diffeomorphism group action is constructed. Conformal fields are thus invariantly defined. PACS numbers: 02.20, 02.40
متن کاملOn Diffeomorphism Invariance and Black Hole Entropy
The Noether-charge realization and the Hamiltonian realization for the diff(M) algebra in diffeomorphism invariant gravitational theories are studied in a covariant formalism. For the Killing vector fields, the Nother-charge realization leads to the mass formula as an entire vanishing Noether charge for the vacuum black hole spacetimes in general relativity and the corresponding first law of th...
متن کاملOsterwalder-Schrader Reconstruction and Diffeomorphism Invariance
The Osterwalder-Schrader reconstruction theorem enables one to obtain a Hilbert space quantum field theory from a measure on the space of (Euclidean) histories of a scalar quantum field. In this note we observe that, in an appropriate setting, this result can be extended to include more general theories. In particular, one can allow gauge fields and consider theories which are invariant under d...
متن کاملAlgebraic structure of Lorentz and diffeomorphism anomalies
The Wess-Zumino consistency conditions for Lorentz and diffeomorphism anomalies are discussed by introducing an operator δ which allows to decompose the exterior space-time derivative as a BRS commutator. Supported in part by the ”Fonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung”, M008-Lise Meitner Fellowship.
متن کاملConformal invariance from non-conformal gravity
We discuss the conditions under which classically conformally invariant models in four dimensions can arise out of non-conformal (Einstein) gravity. As an ‘existence proof’ that this is indeed possible we show how to derive N = 4 super Yang Mills theory with any compact gauge group G from non-conformal gauged N = 4 supergravity as a special flat space limit. We stress the role that the anticipa...
