Smooth Bosonization as a Quantum Canonical Transformation
We consider a 1 + 1 dimensional field theory which contains both a complex fermion field and a real scalar field. We then construct a unitary operator that, by a similarity transformation, gives a continuum of equivalent theories which smoothly interpolate between the massive Thirring model and the sineGordon model. This provides an implementation of smooth bosonization proposed by Damgaard et ...
متن کاملPoisson–Lie T–plurality as canonical transformation
We generalize the prescription realizing classical Poisson–Lie T–duality as canonical transformation to Poisson–Lie T–plurality. The key ingredient is the transformation of left–invariant fields under Poisson–Lie T–plurality. Explicit formulae realizing canonical transformation are presented and the preservation of canonical Poisson brackets and Hamiltonian density is shown. PACS: 02.30.Ik, 04....
متن کاملS-Duality in Gauge Theories as a Canonical Transformation
We show that S-duality in four dimensional non-supersymmetric abelian gauge theories can be formulated as a canonical transformation in the phase space of the theory. This transformation is the usual interchange between electric and magnetic degrees of freedom. It is shown that in phase space the modular anomaly emerges as the result of integrating out the momenta degrees of freedom. The genera...
متن کاملThe Background Field Method beyond One Loop
The background field approach to multi-loop calculations in gauge field theories is presented. A relation between the gauge-invariant effective action computed using this method and the effective action of the conventional functional approach is derived. Feynman rules are given and renormalization is discussed. It is shown that the renormalization programme can be carried out without any refere...
متن کاملThe background field method on the lattice
The background field method has been used successfully to determine hadron electromagnetic polarizabilities. Recently questions have been raised regarding the proper way to deal with the electric field on the lattice. In this paper, we show how the presence of a background electric field affects the quark hopping matrix. We use this formulation to carry out simulations on quenched configuration...
