Ghost condensates in Yang - Mills theories in nonlinear gauges
The existence of ghost condensates of dimension two in a class of nonlinear gauges is discussed in pure Yang-Mills theories. These condensates are related to the dynamical symmetry breaking of the ghost number, giving rise to a vacuum configuration which leaves invariant the maximal Abelian subgroup.
متن کاملOn the SL(2, R) symmetry in Yang-Mills Theories in the Landau, Curci-Ferrari and Maximal Abelian Gauge
The existence of a SL(2, R) symmetry is discussed in SU(N) YangMills in the maximal Abelian Gauge. This symmetry, also present in the Landau and Curci-Ferrari gauge, ensures the absence of tachyons in the maximal Abelian gauge. In all these gauges, SL(2, R) turns out to be dynamically broken by ghost condensates. Research Assistant of The Fund For Scientific Research-Flanders, Belgium. David.Du...
متن کاملThe anomalous dimension of the gluon-ghost mass operator in Yang-Mills theory
The local composite gluon-ghost operator ( 1 2 AA μ + αcc ) is analysed in the framework of the algebraic renormalization in SU(N) Yang-Mills theories in the Landau, CurciFerrari and maximal abelian gauges. We show, to all orders of perturbation theory, that this operator is multiplicatively renormalizable. Furthermore, its anomalous dimension is not an independent parameter of the theory, bein...
متن کاملGauges and Hamiltonian approach to Yang – Mills Theories
A variety of unitary gauges for perturbation theory in a background field is considered in order to find those most suitable for a Hamiltonian treatment of the system. We select two convenient gauges and derive the propagators Dμν for gluonic quantum fluctuations immersed in background configurations. The first one is a unitary generalization of the usual Coulomb gauge in QED which preserves th...
متن کاملCondensation for Su (2) Yang-mills Theories in the Maximal Abelian Gauge
In the framework of the formalism of Cornwall et all. for composite operators I study the ghost-antighost condensation in SU(2) Yang-Mills theories quantized in the Maximal Abelian Gauge and I derive analytically a condensating effective potential at two ghost loops. I find that in this approximation the one loop pairing ghost-antighost is not destroyed but no mass is generated if the ansatz fo...
