Global effects in quaternionic quantum field theory

چکیده
We present some striking global consequences of a model quaternionic quantum field theory which is locally complex. We show how making the quaternionic structure a dynamical quantity naturally leads to the prediction of cosmic strings and non-baryonic hot dark matter candidates.

متن کاملQuaternionic Analysis, Representation Theory and Physics
We develop quaternionic analysis using as a guiding principle representation theory of various real forms of the conformal group. We first review the Cauchy-Fueter and Poisson formulas and explain their representation theoretic meaning. The requirement of unitarity of representations leads us to the extensions of these formulas in the Minkowski space, which can be viewed as another real form of...
متن کاملQuaternionic Quantum Mechanics and Noncommutative Dynamics
In this talk I shall first make some brief remarks on quaternionic quantum mechanics, and then describe recent work with A.C. Millard in which we show that standard complex quantum field theory can arise as the statistical mechanics of an underlying noncommutative dynamics. In quaternionic quantum mechanics, the Dirac transition amplitudes 〈ψ|φ〉 are quaternion valued, that is, they have the for...
متن کاملAnti De Sitter Deformation of Quaternionic Analysis and the Second Order Pole
This is a continuation of a series of papers [FL1, FL2, FL3], where we develop quaternionic analysis from the point of view of representation theory of the conformal Lie group and its Lie algebra. In this paper we continue to study the quaternionic analogues of Cauchy’s formula for the second order pole. These quaternionic analogues are closely related to regularization of infinities of vacuum ...
متن کاملExperimental Status of Quaternionic Quantum Mechanics
Analysis of the logical foundations of quantum mechanics indicates the possibility of constructing a theory using quaternionic Hilbert spaces. Whether this mathematical structure reflects reality is a matter for experiment to decide. We review the only direct search for quaternionic quantum mechanics yet carried out and outline a recent proposal by the present authors to look for quaternionic e...
