A Variational Principle in Discrete Space-Time – Existence of Minimizers
We formulate a variational principle for a collection of projectors in an indefinite inner product space. The existence of minimizers is proved in various situations. In a recent book it was proposed to formulate physics with a new variational principle in space-time [2]. In the present paper we construct minimizers of this variational principle. In order to make the presentation self-contained...
متن کاملSpace and time from translation symmetry
We show that the notions of space and time in algebraic quantum field theory arise from translation symmetry if we assume asymptotic commutativity. We argue that this construction can be applied to string theory. The goal of the present paper is to understand better the foundations of string theory. I will start with the question ”What is quantum field theory?” I hope to explain that in quantum...
متن کاملSuperfluidity and space-time translation symmetry breaking.
I present a simple model that exhibits a temporal analogue of superconducting crystalline (Larkin-Ovchinnikov-Ferrell-Fulde) ordering, with a time-dependent order parameter. I sketch designs for minimally dissipative ac circuits, all based on time translation symmetry (τ) invariant dynamics, exploiting weak links (Josephson effects). These systems violate τ spontaneously. I also discuss effecti...
متن کاملThe Principle of the Fermionic Projector: A New Variational Principle in Space-Time
In this short review, we introduce the mathematical framework of the principle of the fermionic projector and set up a variational principle in discrete space-time. The connection to the continuum theory is outlined. Recent results and open problems are discussed. The principle of the fermionic projector [1] provides a new model of space-time together with the mathematical framework for the for...
متن کاملSpace-Time Variation of Physical Constants and the Equivalence Principle
Location-dependence of physical parameters such as the electromagnetic fine structure constant and Newton’s G produce body accelerations which violate universality of free fall rates testable with laboratory and space experiments. Theoretically related cosmological time variation of these same parameters are also constrained by experiments such as lunar laser ranging, and these time variations ...
