Irreversibility and Higher-spin Conformal Field Theory
I discuss the properties of the central charges c and a for higher-derivative and higher-spin theories (spin 2 included). Ordinary gravity does not admit a straightforward identification of c and a in the trace anomaly, because it is not conformal. On the other hand, higherderivative theories can be conformal, but have negative c and a. A third possibility is to consider higher-spin conformal f...
متن کاملSpin in Quantum Field Theory
I introduce spin in field theory by emphasizing the close connection between quantum field theory and quantum mechanics. First, I show that the spin–statistics connection can be derived in quantum mechanics without relativity or field theory. Then, I discuss path integrals for spin without using spinors. Finally, I show how spin can be quantized in a path–integral approach, without introducing ...
متن کاملQuaternion Spin 2 Field Theory
Abstract In this paper I propose solutions to the nature of Dark matter, Dark energy, Matter and the Matter-Antimatter asymmetry. The real spin representations of a 7d complex space are assumed to be the source of a chiral gauge group SU(8)xU(1) and a spin 2 quaternion field. The integral of the probability density of the spin 2 field results in a lower bound for r and consequently the Schwarzs...
متن کاملStandard Model as a Double Field Theory.
We show that, without any extra physical degree introduced, the standard model can be readily reformulated as a double field theory. Consequently, the standard model can couple to an arbitrary stringy gravitational background in an O(4,4) T-duality covariant manner and manifest two independent local Lorentz symmetries, Spin(1,3)×Spin(3,1). While the diagonal gauge fixing of the twofold spin gro...
متن کاملHigher Spin Field Equations in a Virtual Black Hole Metric
In a quantum theory of gravity, fluctuations about the vacuummay be considered as Planck scale virtual black holes appearing and annihilating in pairs. Incident fields scattering from such fluctuations would lose quantum coherence. In a recent paper Hawking & Ross obtained an estimate for the magnitude of this loss in the case of a scalar field. Their calculation exploited the separability of t...
