Fermion propagators in QED3 with velocity anisotropies
نویسنده
چکیده
QED3 with fermi and gap anisotropies is considered to be a candidate effective field theory of high temperature superconductors. Simulations of a variant of the theory have demonstrated that there is evidence consistent with a phase transition to a chirally restored phase as the velocity anisotropy increases, and that the correlation lengths of pions in spatial directions behave in a manner consistent with the anisotropy being a relevant parameter of the theory. We present the first measurements of the fermion propagator in Landau gauge for this theory and suggest that the structure of this theory is more complex than previously thought.

The e −-e + bound state spectrum of QED3 is investigated in the quenched ladder approximation to the homogeneous Bethe-Salpeter equation with fermion propagators from a Rainbow approximation Schwinger-Dyson solution with variable fermion mass. A detailed analysis of the analytic structure of the fermion propagator is performed so as to test the appropriateness of the methods employed. The large...
متن کاملChiral symmetry breaking in three-dimensional quantum electrodynamics in the presence of irrelevant interactions: A renormalization group study
Motivated by recent theoretical approaches to high temperature superconductivity, we study dynamical mass generation in three-dimensional quantum electrodynamics !QED3" in the presence of irrelevant four-fermion quartic terms. The problem is reformulated in terms of the renormalization group flows of certain four-fermion couplings and charge, and then studied in the limit of a large number of f...
متن کاملDynamical mass generation of a two-component fermion in Maxwell-Chern-Simons QED3: The lowest ladder approximation
Dynamical mass generation of a two-component fermion in QED3 with a ChernSimons term is investigated by solving the Schwinger-Dyson equation formulated in the lowest ladder approximation. Dependence of the dynamical fermion mass on a gauge-fixing parameter, a gauge coupling constant, and a topological mass is examined by approximated analytical and also numerical methods. The inclusion of the C...

Yuichi Hoshino Kushiro National College of Technology, Otanoshike Nishi 2-32-1,Kushiro City,HOkkaido 084,Japan (Dated:) Abstract To remove the linear infrared divergences in quenched approximation we include the massive fermion loop to the photon spectral function.Spectral function of fermion has no one particle singularity if we fix the anomalous dimension to be unity.In the case of N flavour,...
متن کاملFermion Propagator in Quenched QED3 in the Light of the Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin Tranformation
We study the gauge dependence of the fermion propagator in quenched QED3, with and without dynamical symmetry breaking, in the light of its Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin transformation (LKFT). In the former case, starting with the massive bare propagator in the Landau gauge, we obtain non perturbative propagator in an arbitrary covariant gauge. Carrying out a perturbative expansion of this result,...
