Modular Nuclearity: A Generally Covariant Perspective
نویسندگان
چکیده
A quantum field theory in its algebraic description may admit many irregular states. So far, selection criteria to distinguish physically reasonable states have been restricted to free fields (Hadamard condition) or to flat spacetimes (e.g., Buchholz-Wichmann nuclearity). We propose instead to use a modular `p-condition, which is an extension of a strengthened modular nuclearity condition to generally covariant theories. The modular nuclearity condition was previously introduced in Minkowski space, where it played an important role in constructive two dimensional algebraic QFT’s. We show that our generally covariant extension of this condition makes sense for a vast range of theories, and that it behaves well under causal propagation and taking mixtures. In addition we show that our modular `p-condition holds for every quasi-free Hadamard state of a free scalar quantum field (regardless of mass or scalar curvature coupling). However, our condition is not equivalent to the Hadamard condition.

Modular Nuclearity and Localization
Within the algebraic setting of quantum field theory, a condition is given which implies that the intersection of algebras generated by field operators localized in wedge–shaped regions of two–dimensional Minkowski space is non–trivial; in particular, there exist compactly localized operators in such theories which can be interpreted as local observables. The condition is based on spectral (nuc...

We present the computation modulo p2 and explicit formulas for the unique isogeny covariant differential modular form of order one and weight χ−p−1,−p called fjet, an isogeny covariant differential modular form of order two and weight χ−p2−p,−1,−1 denoted by fjethjet, and an isogeny covariant differential modular form hjet of order two and weight χ1−p2,0,−1.
متن کاملProblems of Dynamics in
Problems connected with the structural aspects of dynamics are addressed in the context of the algebraic approach to generally covariant quantum eld theory. It is argued that the dynamical structure of observables in a generally covariant context becomes fundamentally state dependent. This makes it necessary to relate the entire dynamics to state dependent automorphisms of the algebra of observ...

Regularized Algebraic Nets for General Covariant QFT on Differentiable Manifolds
Quantum general relativity may be considered as generally covariant QFT on differentiable manifolds, without any a priori metric structure. The kinematically covariance group acts by general diffeomorphisms on the manifold and by automorphisms on the isotonic net of ∗-algebras encoding the QFT, while the algebra of observables is covariant under the dynamical subgroup of the general diffeomorph...
