Asymptotic Freedom Cosmology
For a general class of scalar–tensor gravity theories, we discuss how to recover asymptotic freedom regimes when cosmic time t → ±∞. Such a feature means that the effective gravitational coupling Geff → 0, while cosmological solutions can asymptotically assume de Sitter or power–law behaviours. In our opinion, through this mechanism, it is possible to cure some shortcomings in inflationary and ...
متن کاملAsymptotic Freedom in a Scalar Field Theory on the Lattice
An alternative model to the trivial φ4-theory of the standard model of weak interactions is suggested, which embodies the Higgs-mechanism, but is free of the conceptual problems of standard φ4-theory. We propose a N -component, O(N)-symmetric scalar field theory, which is originally defined on the lattice. The model can be motivated from SU(2) gauge theory. Thereby the scalar field arises as a ...
متن کاملAsymptotic Freedom from Induced Gravity Cosmology
We give conditions to obtain cosmological asymptotic freedom in scalar–tensor theories of gravity. We show that this feature can be achieved in FRW flat spacetimes since we obtain singularity free solutions where the effective gravitational constant Geff → 0 for t → −∞ and, for some of them, Geff → GN for t → ∞, where GN is the Newton constant.

متن کاملThe Problem of Asymptotic Freedom *
There is a growing body of evidence that the running of αs predicted by perturbation (PT) theory is not correctly describing the accelerator experiments at the highest energies. A natural explanation is provided by the authors’ 1992 proposal that in fact the true running predicted by the nonperturbatively defined lattice QCD is different, leading to an ultraviolet fixed point near αs = .1. It i...
متن کاملInitial-Value Problem in Quantum Field Theory: an Application to the Relativistic Scalar Plasma
A framework to describe the real-time evolution of interacting fermion-scalar field models is set up. On the basis of the general dynamics of the fields, we derive formal equations of kinetic-type to the set of one-body dynamical variables. A time-dependent projection technique is used then to generate a nonperturbative mean-field expansion leading to a set of self-consistent equations of motio...
