Thermodynamic gauge-theory cascade
It is proposed that the cooling of a thermalized SU(N) gauge theory can be formulated in terms of a cascade involving three effective theories with successively reduced (and spontaneously broken) gauge symmetries, SU(N)→ U(1)N−1 →Z(N). The approach is based on the assumption that away from a phase transition the bulk of the quantum interaction inherent to the system is implicitly encoded in the...
متن کاملGauge Theory as Hodge Theory
In the framework of an extended BRST formalism, it is shown that the four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) free Abelian 2-form (notoph) gauge theory presents an example of a tractable field theoretical model for the Hodge theory.
متن کاملGauge Theory Is Dead!–Long Live Gauge Theory!
NOTICES OF THE AMS 335 I n late October and early November 1994 many mathematicians received e-mail from colleagues trumpeting the death of gauge theory. More than a decade earlier, S. K. Donaldson (Oxford) had found a deep but mysterious link between Yang-Mills theory from mathematical physics on the one hand and 4-dimensional differential topology on the other. Since then, many topologists ha...
متن کاملSemianalytic Cascade Theory
We give a simple, semianalytic theory of the development of the hadronic and neutrino/muon components of a cascade induced by a primary which produces hadrons at the initial interaction. The main purpose of the theory is to allow the user to obtain quick, but reasonably reliable estimates of the longitudinal properties of such cascades developing in a medium, such as a stellar interior, the atm...
متن کاملThermodynamic theory of kinetic overshoots
Everything that is not prohibited is permissible. So, what is prohibited in the course of chemical reactions, heat transfer and other dissipative processes? Is it possible to “overshoot” the equilibrium, and if yes, then how far? Thermodynamically allowed and prohibited trajectories of processes are discussed by the example of effects of equilibrium encircling. The complete theory of thermodyna...
