Gravity from Breaking of Local Lorentz Symmetry
We present a model of gravity based on spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking. We start from a model with spontaneously broken symmetries for a massless 2-tensor with a linear kinetic term and a nonderivative potential, which is shown to be equivalent to linearized general relativity, with the Nambu-Goldstone (NG) bosons playing the role of the gravitons. We apply a bootstrap procedure to the mo...
متن کاملCpt-and Lorentz-symmetry Breaking: a Review
The breakdown of spacetime symmetries has recently been identified as a promising candidate signal for underlying physics, possibly arising through quantum-gravitational effects. This talk gives an overview over various aspects of CPTand Lorentz-violation research. Particular emphasis is given to the interplay between CPT, Lorentz, and translation symmetry, mechanisms for CPT and Lorentz breaki...
متن کاملLorentz symmetry breaking effects on relativistic EPR correlations
Lorentz symmetry breaking effects on relativistic EPR (Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen) correlations are discussed. From the modified Maxwell theory coupled to gravity, we establish a possible scenario of the Lorentz symmetry violation and write an effective metric for the Minkowski spacetime. Then we obtain the Wigner rotation angle via the Fermi–Walker transport of spinors and consider the WKB (Wentz...
متن کاملUnruh’s detector in the presence of Lorentz symmetry breaking
We investigate the quantum field theory of a Lorentz non-invariant model with a massive nonlinear dispersion relation in Minkowski space. The model involves some non-causal signals in the form of wave packets propagating with super-luminal group velocities. To avoid the problems with causality we characterize the causal sector of the theory by a cutoff condition excluding all super-luminal grou...
متن کاملSpontaneous breaking of Lorentz symmetry in (2+1)-dimensional QED
The phase diagram of quantum electrodynamics in three space-time dimensions as a function of fermion flavor number N exhibits two well-known phases: at large N > N c the system is in a conformal state with anomalous exponents, while for small N < N c the fermions are expected to develop a dynamical mass due to spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking. Using expansion near the lower critical dimensi...
