Anomalies in PT -Symmetric Quantum Field Theory
It is shown that a version of PT -symmetric electrodynamics based on an axial-vector current coupling massless fermions to the photon possesses anomalies and so is rendered nonrenormalizable. An alternative theory is proposed based on the conventional vector current constructed from massive Dirac fields, but in which the PT transformation properties of electromagnetic fields are reversed. Such ...
متن کاملAnomalies in Quantum Field Theory and Cohomologies of Configuration Spaces
In this paper we study systematically the Euclidean renormalization in configuration spaces. We investigate also the deviation from commutativity of the renormalization and the action of all linear partial differential operators. This deviation is the source of the anomalies in quantum field theory, including the renormalization group action. It also determines a Hochschild 1–cocycle and the re...
متن کاملAnomalies in Quantum Field Theory Properties and Characterization
We consider the Adler-Bardeen anomaly of the U (1) axial current in abelian and non-abelian gauge theories and present its algebraic characterization as well as an explicit evaluation proving regularization scheme independence of the anomaly. By extending the gauge coupling to an external space-time dependent field we get a unique definition for the quantum corrections of the topological term. ...
متن کاملGravitational Anomalies in Noncommutative Field Theory
Gravitational axial and chiral anomalies in a noncommutative space are examined through the explicit perturbative computation of one-loop diagrams in various dimensions. The analysis depend on how gravity is coupled to noncommutative matter fields. DelbourgoSalam computation of the gravitational axial anomaly contribution to the pion decay into two photons, is studied in detail in this context....
متن کاملAspects of Anomalies in Field Theory
We discuss some formal aspects of quantum anomalies with an emphasis on the regularization of field theory. We briefly review how ambiguities in perturbation theory have been resolved by various regularization schemes. To single out the true quantum anomaly among ambiguities, the combined ideas of PCAC, soft pion limit and renormalizability were essential. As for the formal treatment of quantum...
