Graded KMS Functionals and the Breakdown of Supersymmetry
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is shown that the modulus of any graded or, more generally, twisted KMS functional of a C∗–dynamical system is proportional to an ordinary KMS state and the twist is weakly inner in the corresponding GNS–representation. If the functional is invariant under the adjoint action of some asymptotically abelian family of automorphisms, then the twist is trivial. As a consequence, such functionals do not exist for supersymmetric C∗–dynamical systems. This is in contrast with the situation in compact spaces where super KMS functionals occur as super-Gibbs functionals. ∗Supported in part by GNAFA and MURST.

متن کاملAlgebraic Supersymmetry: A case study
The treatment of supersymmetry is known to cause difficulties in the C∗–algebraic framework of relativistic quantum field theory; several no–go theorems indicate that super–derivations and super–KMS functionals must be quite singular objects in a C∗–algebraic setting. In order to clarify the situation, a simple supersymmetric chiral field theory of a free Fermi and Bose field defined on R is an...
متن کاملبررسی مفهوم نظام مدیریت دانش
Purpose: Lack of enough understanding of the Knowledge Management System (KMS), including the definition, components as well as the success factors in it, is among the main elements of failure in the knowledge management projects. The present work attempts to enlighten the concept of KMS and the related components. Methodology: This work in addition to detailed reviewing of the KMS , studies t...
متن کاملZZn-Graded Topological Generalizations of Supersymmetry and Orthofermion Algebra
We review various generalizations of supersymmetry and discuss their relationship. In particular, we show how supersymmetry, parasupersymmetry, fractional supersymmetry, orthosupersymmetry, and the ZZn-graded topological symmetries are related.
متن کاملNotes for a Quantum Index Theorem
We view DHR superselection sectors with finite statistics as Quantum Field Theory analogs of elliptic operators where KMS functionals play the role of the trace composed with the heat kernel regularization. We extend our local holomorphic dimension formula and prove an analogue of the index theorem in the Quantum Field Theory context. The analytic index is the Jones index, more precisely the mi...
