Topological Correlation Functions in Minkowski Spacetime
We consider a class of non-unitary Toda theories based on the Lie superalgebras A(1)(n, n) in two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, which can be twisted into a topological sector. In particular we study the simplest example with n = 1 and real fields, and show how this theory can be treated as an integrable perturbation of the A(1, 0) superconformal model. We construct the conserved currents and...
متن کاملTopological Gravity in Minkowski
The two-category with three-manifolds as objects, h-cobordisms as morphisms, and diffeomorphisms of these as two-morphisms, is extremely rich; from the point of view of classical physics it defines a nontrivial topological model for general relativity. A striking amount of work on pseudoisotopy theory [Hatcher, Waldhausen, Cohen-Carlsson-Goodwillie-Hsiang-Madsen . . . ] can be formulated as a T...
متن کاملCommunicating with accelerated observers in Minkowski spacetime
Our goal here is to determine the spatial and temporal constraints on communication between two observers at least one of which moves with constant proper acceleration in two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. We take as a simplified model of communication one observer bouncing a light signal off another observer. Our derivations use only elementary mathematics and spacetime diagrams, and hence a...
متن کاملQuantum inequalities in two dimensional Minkowski spacetime
We generalize some results of Ford and Roman constraining the possible behaviors of the renormalized expected stressenergy tensor of a free massless scalar field in two dimensional Minkowski spacetime. Ford and Roman showed that the energy density measured by an inertial observer, when averaged with respect to the observers proper time by integrating against some weighting function, is bounded ...
متن کاملMinkowski Formulae and Alexandrov Theorems in Spacetime
The classical Minkowski formula is extended to spacelike codimension-two submanifolds in spacetimes which admit “hidden symmetry” from conformal KillingYano two-forms. As an application, we obtain an Alexandrov type theorem for spacelike codimension-two submanifolds in a static spherically symmetric spacetime: a codimensiontwo submanifold with constant normalized null expansion (null mean curva...
