Deriving Gauge Symmetry and Spontaneous Lorentz Violation
We consider a class of field theories with a four-vector field Aμ(x) in addition to other fields supplied with a global charge symmetry theories which have partial gauge symmetry in the sense of only imposing it on those terms in the Lagrangian density which have derivatives as factors in them. We suppose that spontaneous Lorentz invariance breaking occurs in such a theory due to the four-vecto...
متن کاملModels of Baryogenesis via Spontaneous Lorentz Violation
In the presence of background fields that spontaneously violate Lorentz invariance, a matter-antimatter asymmetry can be generated even in thermal equilibrium. In this paper we systematically investigate models of this type, showing that either high-energy or electroweak versions of baryogenesis are possible, depending on the dynamics of the Lorentz-violating fields. In addition to the previous...
متن کاملCPT violation implies violation of Lorentz invariance.
A interacting theory that violates CPT invariance necessarily violates Lorentz invariance. On the other hand, CPT invariance is not sufficient for out-of-cone Lorentz invariance. Theories that violate CPT by having different particle and antiparticle masses must be nonlocal.
متن کاملInduced Lorentz & CPT invariance violations in QED
We consider QED in a constant axial vector background. Lorentz invariance violation(LIV) occurs through radiative corrections. A detailed study of the phenomenology of the model is carried out, clarifying important issues related to the various regularizations employed . In this context, the physical meaning of the cutoffs induced by LIV is emphasized. Finally, finite temperature radiative corr...
متن کاملZ-string global gauge anomaly and Lorentz non-invariance
Certain (3+1)-dimensional chiral non-abelian gauge theories have been shown to exhibit a new type of global gauge anomaly, which in the hamiltonian formulation is due to the fermion zeromodes of a Z-string-like configuration of the gauge potential and the corresponding spectral flow. Here, we clarify the relation between this Z-string global gauge anomaly and other anomalies in both 3+1 and 2+1...
