Two-Dilaton Theories in Two Dimensions from Dimensional Reduction
Dimensional reduction of generalized gravity theories or string theories generically yields dilaton fields in the lower-dimensional effective theory. Thus at the level of D=4 theories, and cosmology many models contain more than just one scalar field (e.g. inflaton, Higgs, quintessence). Our present work is restricted to two-dimensional gravity theories with only two dilatons which nevertheless...
متن کاملObstructions to dimensional reduction in hot QCD
I describe results on screening masses in hot gauge theories. Wilsonian effective long distance theories called dimensionally reduced (DR) theories describe very well the longest screening length in pure gauge theories. In the presence of fermions, meson-like screening lengths dominate the long-distance physics for 3Tc/2 ≤ T < 3Tc, and thus obstruct perturbative DR. Extrapolation of our results...
متن کاملDimensional Reduction without Continuous Extra Dimensions
We describe a novel approach to dimensional reduction in classical field theory. Inspired by ideas from noncommutative geometry, we introduce extended algebras of differential forms over spacetime, generalized exterior derivatives, and generalized connections associated with the “geometry” of space-times with discrete extra dimensions. We apply our formalism to theories of gaugeand gravitationa...
متن کاملQcd: from Four to Two Dimensions
I review some work done in the past four years concerning the transition of Yang-Mills theories from 1+3 to 1+1 dimensions. The problem is considered both in a perturbative context and in exact solutions when available. Several interesting features are discussed, mainly in relation to the phenomenon of confinement, and some controversial issues are clarified. I would like to report on some work...
متن کاملMaximum Entropy Estimation of Probability Distribution of Variables in Higher Dimensions from Lower Dimensional Data
A common statistical situation concerns inferring an unknown distribution Q(x) from a known distribution P(y), where X (dimension n), and Y (dimension m) have a known functional relationship. Most commonly, n ≤ m, and the task is relatively straightforward for well-defined functional relationships. For example, if Y1 and Y2 are independent random variables, each uniform on [0, 1], one can deter...
