Temparature as Order Parameter of Broken Scale Invariance
نویسنده
چکیده
In algebraic quantum field theory the (inverse) temperature is shown to be a macroscopic order parameter arising from the broken scale invariance associated with renormalization group to parametrize mutually disjoint thermal sectors. This is accomplished in a mathematical formalism for the consistent treatment of explicitly broken symmetries such as broken scale invariance, on the basis of a clear-cut criterion for the symmetry breakdown in a unified scheme for sectors proposed recently by the author.

Estimation of Scale Parameter Under a Bounded Loss Function
The quadratic loss function has been used by decision-theoretic statisticians and economists for many years. In this paper the estimation of scale parameter under a bounded loss function, which is adequate for assessing quality and quality improvement, is considered with restriction to the principles of invariance and risk unbiasedness. An implicit form of minimum risk scale equivariant ...
متن کاملElectroweak Higgs as a pseudo-Goldstone boson of broken scale invariance
We point out that it is possible to associate the electroweak Higgs boson with the pseudoGoldstone boson of broken scale invariance, thus resolving the hierarchy problem in a technically natural way. We illustrate this idea with two specific gauge models. Besides being consistent with all currently available experimental data, both models maintain the predictive power of the standard model, sin...
متن کاملBreaking the scale invariance of the primordial spectrum or not: the new WMAP data
It seems that new WMAP data require a fit with a primordial spectrum containing small negative tilt index in addition to the featureless Harrison-Zeljdovič-Peebles spectrum thus implying a broken scale invariance. We show that the data could be otherwise interpreted by a scale invariant primordial spectrum with the scale noninvariant evolution of density contrast using the Press-Schechter forma...
متن کاملTwo-loop effective potential for a general renormalizable theory and softly broken supersymmetry
I compute the two-loop effective potential in the Landau gauge for a general renormalizable field theory in four dimensions. Results are presented for the MS renormalization scheme based on dimensional regularization, and for the DR and DR ′ schemes based on regularization by dimensional reduction. The last of these is appropriate for models with softly broken supersymmetry, such as the Minimal...
متن کاملImprovement of energy-momentum tensor and non-Gaussianities in holographic cosmology
In holographic models of cosmology based on the (A)dS/CFT correspondence, conformal symmetry is implicit in the dual description of the Universe. Generically, however, one cannot expect the (broken) conformal invariance in the cosmic fluctuations as only the scale invariance is manifest in experiments. Also, in order for the prediction of the holographic models to make sense, the conformal symm...
