The fate of ‘particles’ in quantum field theories with interactions
Most philosophical discussion of the particle concept that is afforded by quantum field theory has focused on free systems. This paper is devoted to a systematic investigation of whether the particle concept for free systems can be extended to interacting systems. The possible methods of accomplishing this are considered and all are found unsatisfactory. Therefore, an interacting system cannot ...
متن کاملMassless integrable quantum field theories and massless scattering in 1+1 dimensions
These lecture notes provide an elementary introduction to the study of massless inte-grable quantum field theory in 1+1 dimensions using " massless scattering ". Some previously unpublished results are also presented, including a non-perturbative study of Virasoro conserved quantities. A massless quantum field theory has no gap in the excitation spectrum. This can be seen, for example, in the L...
متن کاملKinks and Particles in Non-integrable Quantum Field Theories
In this talk we discuss an elementary derivation of the semi-classical spectrum of neutral particles in two field theories with kink excitations. We also show that, in the non-integrable cases, each vacuum state cannot generically support more than two stable particles, since all other neutral exitations are resonances, which will eventually decay.
متن کاملQuantum field theories in classical spacetimes and particles
According to a Received View, relativistic quantum field theories (RQFTs) do not admit particle interpretations. This view requires that particles be localizable and countable, and that these characteristics be given mathematical expression in the forms of local and unique total number operators. Various results (the Reeh-Schlieder theorem, the Unruh Effect, Haag’s theorem) then indicate that f...
متن کاملLimit cycles in quantum theories.
Renormalization group limit cycles and more chaotic behavior may be commonplace for quantum Hamiltonians requiring renormalization, in contrast to experience based on classical models with critical behavior, where fixed points are far more common. We discuss the simplest quantum model Hamiltonian identified so far that exhibits a renormalization group with both limit cycle and chaotic behavior....
