Quantum Cosmology with Yang-Mills Fields
نویسنده
چکیده
We examine an extension of the ideas of quantum cosmology and, in particular, the proposal of Hartle and Hawking for the boundary conditions of the Universe, to models which incorporate Yang-Mills fields. Inhomogeneous perturbations about a homogeneous, isotropic minisuperspace background model are considered, by expanding the Yang-Mills fields in harmonics of the spatial directions which are taken to be three-spheres. The expansions are made explicit for SO(N) gauge fields thereby obtaining formulae compatible with the formalism conventionally used in quantum cosmology. We apply these results to the gauge group SO(3) and derive the Lagrangian and the semi-classical wave function for this special case.

We consider quantum N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory interacting in a covariant way with N = 4 conformal supergravity. The induced large N effective action for such a theory is calculated on a dilaton-gravitational background using the conformal anomaly found via AdS/CFT correspondence. Considering such an effective action as a quantum correction to the classical gravity action we study quantum co...
متن کاملStability of Yang-Mills-Higgs field system in the homogeneous self-dual vacuum field
Classical dynamics of SU(2) model gauge field system with Higgs field is considered in the homogeneous nonperturbative self-dual vacuum field. The regions of instability in parametric space are detected and described analytically. Introduction Much attention has been paid in the last decade to chaos in quantum field theory. At first, non-abelian Yang-Mills gauge fields were investigated without...
متن کاملThe influence of quantum field fluctuations on chaotic dynamics of Yang-Mills system II. The role of the centrifugal term
We have considered SU(2) ⊗ U(1) gauge field theory describing electroweak interactions. We have demonstrated that centrifugal term in model Hamiltonian increases the region of regular dynamics of Yang-Mills and Higgs fields system at low densities of energy. Also we have found analytically the approximate relation for critical density of energy of the order to chaos transition on centrifugal co...
متن کاملMatrix universality of gauge and gravitational dynamics
A simple cubic matrix model is presented, which has truncations that, it is argued, lead at the classical level to a variety of theories of gauge fields and gravity. The latter includes Chern-Simons theory in d = 3, and BF theory and general relativity in d = 4. General relativity coupled to Yang-mills theory for any SU(N) may also arise from quantum corrections. On the basis of these results w...
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.
