A charge operator is constructed for a quantum field theory with an abelian discrete gauge symmetry, and a non-local order parameter is formulated that specifies how the gauge symmetry is realized. If the discrete gauge symmetry is manifest, then the charge inside a large region can be detected at the boundary of the region, even in a theory with no massless gauge fields. This long-range effect...
متن کاملLocal Discrete Symmetry in the Brane Neighborhood
With the ansatz that there exist local or global discrete symmetries in the special branes’ neighborhoods, we can construct the extra dimension models with only zero modes, or the models which have large extra dimensions and arbitrarily heavy KK modes because there is no simple relation between the mass scales of extra dimensions and the masses of KK states. In addition, the bulk gauge symmetry...
متن کاملQuantum spherical spins with local symmetry.
We construct a quantum system of spherical spins with a continuous local symmetry. The model is exactly soluble in the thermodynamic limit and exhibits a number of interesting properties. We show that the local symmetry is spontaneously broken at finite as well as zero temperatures, implying the existence of classical and quantum phase transitions with a nontrivial critical behavior. The dynami...
متن کاملQuantum Discrete Symmetry and the Strong CP Problem
We study a 2N -flavor effective theory of N -flavor QCD. With the axial anomaly accounted for in the effective theory by a ’t Hooft interaction, only QCD conserved currents survive. However, there is a residual discrete symmetry with interesting properties. With non-vanishing quark masses, this S2 symmetry is broken unless θ̄=0 or π. We further show that there is a sense in which hadrons in the ...
متن کاملLocal Automorphisms of Some Quantum Mechanical Structures
Let H be a separable infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space. We prove that every continuous 2-local automorphism of the poset (that is, partially ordered set) of all idempotents on H is an automorphism. Similar results concerning the orthomodular poset of all projections and the Jordan ring of all selfadjoint operators on H without the assumption on continuity are also presented. Date: Febr...
