Spinor fields in Causal Set Theory
The goal of this paper is to define fermionic fields on causal set. This is done by the use of holonomies to define vierbines, and then defining spinor fields by taking advantage of the leftover degrees of freedom of holonomies plus additional scalar fields. Grassmann nature is being enforced by allowing measure to take both positive and negative values, and also by introducing a vector space t...
متن کاملOn Cosmological Constant in Causal Set Theory
Resolution of the cosmological constant problem based on Causal Set theory is discussed. It is argued that one should not observe any spacetime variations in Λ if Causal Set approach is correct. It’s been known since late 1990’s that expansion of our Universe appears to be accelerating. [1] The most commonly agreed upon explanation of this expansion is a small but non-zero cosmological constant...
متن کاملGravity and matter in causal set theory
The goal of this paper is to propose an approach to the formulation of dynamics for causal sets and coupled matter fields. We start from the continuum version of the action for a Klein-Gordon field coupled to gravity, and rewrite it first using quantities that have a direct correspondent in the case of a causal set, namely volumes, causal relations, and timelike lengths, as variables to describ...
متن کاملCausal Sets and Frame-Valued Set Theory
In spacetime physics any set C of events—a causal set—is taken to be partially ordered by the relation ≤ of possible causation: for p, q ∈ C, p ≤ q means that q is in p’s future light cone. In her groundbreaking paper The internal description of a causal set: What the universe looks like from the inside, Fotini Markopoulou proposes that the causal structure of spacetime itself be represented by...
متن کاملCausal construction of the massless vertex diagram
In the traditional approach to quantum field theory, one starts from classical fields and a Lagrangean which describes the interaction. These objects get quantized and S-matrix elements or Greens functions are constructed with the help of the Feynman rules. A typical example which is used in this paper as a model theory is the massless Φ3-theory, where the interaction Hamiltonian density is giv...
