0 Boundary Operators in Quantum Field Theory
The fundamental laws of physics can be derived from the requirement of invariance under suitable classes of transformations on the one hand, and from the need for a well-posed mathematical theory on the other hand. As a part of this programme, the present paper shows under which conditions the introduction of pseudo-differential boundary operators in one-loop Euclidean quantum gravity is compat...
متن کاملBoundary Operators in Quantum Field Theory
When quantum fields are studied on manifolds with boundary, the corresponding one-loop quantum theory for bosonic gauge fields with linear covariant gauges needs the assignment of suitable boundary operators for elliptic differential operators of Laplace type. It is here shown that, on requiring that the full boundary operator should be a projector, at least two sets of such operators are found...
متن کاملSome Boundary Effects in Quantum Field Theory *
We have constructed a quantum field theory in a finite box, with periodic boundary conditions, using the hypothesis that particles living in a finite box are created and/or annihilated by the creation and/or annihilation operators, respectively, of a quantum harmonic oscillator on a circle. An expression for the effective coupling constant is obtained showing explicitly its dependence on the di...
متن کاملBoundary bound states in integrable quantum field theory
The purpose of this talk is to sketch some recent progress which has been made in calculating non-perturbatively the reflection factors for the sinh-Gordon model restricted to a half-line by integrable boundary conditions. The essential idea is to calculate the energy spectrum of boundary breathers in two independent ways; firstly by using the boundary bootstrap and secondly by quantizing the c...
متن کاملBoundary Reflection Matrix in Perturbative Quantum Field Theory
We study boundary reflection matrix for the quantum field theory defined on a half line using Feynman’s perturbation theory. The boundary reflection matrix can be extracted directly from the two-point correlation function. This enables us to determine the boundary reflection matrix for affine Toda field theory with the Neumann boundary condition modulo ‘a mysterious factor half’. jideog.kim@dur...
