Wess-Zumino terms for relativistic fluids, superfluids, solids, and supersolids.

چکیده
We use the coset construction of low-energy effective actions to systematically derive Wess-Zumino (WZ) terms for fluid and isotropic solid systems in two, three, and four spacetime dimensions. We recover the known WZ term for fluids in two dimensions as well as the very recently found WZ term for fluids in three dimensions. We find two new WZ terms for supersolids that have not previously appeared in the literature. In addition, by relaxing certain assumptions about the symmetry group of fluids we find a number of new WZ terms for fluids with and without charge, in all dimensions. We find no WZ terms for solids and superfluids.

A Note on Wess-Zumino Terms and Discrete Symmetries
Sigma models in which the integer coefficient of the Wess-Zumino term vanishes are easy to construct. This is the case if all flavor symmetries are vectorlike. We show that there is a subset of SU(N)× SU(N) vectorlike sigma models in which the Wess-Zumino term vanishes for reasons of symmetry as well. However, there is no chiral sigma model in which the Wess-Zumino term vanishes for reasons of ...
متن کاملWess-Zumino actions and Dirichlet Boundary Conditions for Super p-branes with Exotic Fractions of Supersymmetry
The general solutions in the models of closed and open superstring and super p-branes with exotic fractions of the N = 1 supersymmetry are considered and the spontaneously broken character of the OSp(1, 2M) symmetry of the models is established. It is shown that extending these models by Wess-Zumino terms generates the Dirichlet boundary conditions for superstring and super p-branes. Using the ...
متن کاملCrystalline Cohomology of Superschemes
We introduce a notion of crystalline cohomology for superschemes and show that it is isomorphic to the usual crystalline cohomology of the underlying commutative scheme if 2 is invertible on the base. Wess-Zumino terms play a crucial role in the matching of theoretical predictions in the framework of Quantum Chromodynamics of the decay of the neutral pion π into two photons π −→ γ + γ and the e...

متن کاملWess-Zumino model is renormalizable
The Wess-Zumino model on N = 1 2 nonanticommutative superspace, which contains the dimension-6 term F , is shown to be renormalizable to all orders in perturbation theory, upon adding F and F 2 terms to the original Lagrangian. Our result generalizes the recent work hep-th/0307099, which proved renormalizability up to two loops.
