Group approach to quantization of Yang–Mills theories: a cohomological origin of mass
نویسنده
چکیده
New clues for the best understanding of the nature of the symmetry-breaking mechanism are revealed in this paper. A revision of the standard gauge transformation properties of Yang–Mills fields, according to a group approach to the quantization scheme, enables the gauge group coordinates to acquire dynamical content outside the null mass shell. The corresponding extra (internal) field degrees of freedom are transferred to the vector potentials to conform massive vector bosons.

‘Third’ Quantization of Vacuum Einstein Gravity and Free Yang-Mills Theories
Certain pivotal results from various applications of Abstract Differential Geometry (ADG) to gravity and gauge theories are presently collected and used to argue that we already possess a geometrically (pre)quantized, second quantized and manifestly background spacetime manifold independent vacuum Einstein gravitational field dynamics. The arguments carry also mutatis mutandis to the case of fr...
متن کاملOn the Cohomological Structure of Supersymmetric Lagrangeans With and Without Auxiliary Fields
The origin of non-renormalization theorems in field theories with global supersymmetry can be traced to the fact that supersymmetric actions can be viewed as the highest components of respective supermultiplets. Supersymmetric interactions in particular can therefore be represented as supersymmetry variations of lower dimensional field polynomials. We investigate here this algebraic structure i...
متن کاملYang-Mills Matrix Theory
In this thesis, we discuss bosonic and supersymmetric Yang-Mills matrix models with compact semi-simple gauge group. We begin by finding convergence properties for the models. In the supersymmetric case, we show that the partition function converges when D = 4, 6 and 10, and that correlation functions of degree k < kc = 2(D− 3) are convergent independently of the group. In the bosonic case we s...

Gauge symmetries generally appear as a constraint algebra, under which one expects all physical states to be singlets. However, quantum anomalies and boundary conditions introduce central charges and change this picture, thus causing gauge/diffeomorphism modes to become physical. We expose a cohomological (Higgs-less) generation of mass in U (N)-gauge invariant Yang-Mills theories through non-t...
متن کاملEnergy-mass spectrum of Yang-Mills bosons is infinite and discrete
Anti-normal quantization of relativistic Yang-Mills fields with a compact semisimple gauge group mathematically produces an infinite discrete energymass spectrum of Z′ gauge bosons. In particular, quantum Yang-Mills theory existence and mass gap problem is solved. To I. M. Gelfand with gratitude.
