Emergent gauge symmetries: Yang-Mills theory

چکیده
Gauge symmetries remove unphysical states and guarantee that field theories are free from the pathologies associated with these states. In this work we find a set of general conditions removal in describing interacting vector fields. These obtained through extension mechanism for emergence gauge proposed previous article [C. Barcel\'o J. High Energy Phys. 10 (2016) 084] order to account non-Abelian symmetries, following: low-energy Lorentz invariance, massless fields describable by an action quadratic those their derivatives, self-coupling conserved current specific rigid symmetries. Using bootstrapping procedure, prove equivalent and, therefore, any theory satisfying them must be Yang-Mills at low energies.

D-branes in Yang-Mills theory and Emergent Gauge Symmetry
Four-dimensional supersymmetric SU(N) Yang-Mills theory on a sphere has highly charged baryon-like states built from anti-symmetric combinations of the adjoint scalars. We show that these states, which are equivalently described as holes in a free fermi sea of a reduced matrix model, are D-branes. Their excitations are stringlike and effectively realize Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions...
متن کاملAsymptotic symmetries of Yang-Mills theory
Asymptotic symmetries at future null infinity (I+) of Minkowski space for electrodynamics with massless charged fields, as well as nonabelian gauge theories with gauge group G, are considered at the semiclassical level. The possibility of charge/color flux through I+ suggests the symmetry group is infinite-dimensional. It is conjectured that the symmetries include a G Kac-Moody symmetry whose g...
متن کاملYang-Mills Theory In Axial Gauge
The Yang-Mills functional integral is studied in an axial variant of ’t Hooft’s maximal Abelian gauge. In this gauge Gauß’ law can be completely resolved resulting in a description in terms of unconstrained variables. Compared to previous work along this line starting with work of Goldstone and Jackiw one ends up here with half as many integration variables, besides a field living in the Cartan...
متن کاملQuantum Criticality and Yang-Mills Gauge Theory
We present a family of nonrelativistic Yang-Mills gauge theories in D+1 dimensions whose free-field limit exhibits quantum critical behavior with gapless excitations and dynamical critical exponent z = 2. The ground state wavefunction is intimately related to the partition function of relativistic Yang-Mills in D dimensions. The gauge couplings exhibit logarithmic scaling and asymptotic freedom...
متن کاملYang-Mills theory as an Abelian theory without gauge fixing
A general procedure to reveal an Abelian structure of Yang-Mills theories by means of a (nonlocal) change of variables, rather than by gauge fixing, in the space of connections is proposed. The Abelian gauge group is isomorphic to the maximal Abelian subgroup of the Yang-Mills gauge group, but not its subgroup. A Maxwell field of the Abelian theory contains topological degrees of freedom of ori...
