Gauge Fixing in the Partition Function for Generalized Quantum Dynamics
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss the problem of gauge fixing for the partition function in generalized quantum (or trace) dynamics, deriving analogs of the De WittFaddeev-Popov procedure and of the BRST invariance familiar in the functional integral context.

Canonical thermostatics of ideal gas in the frame work of generalized uncertainty principle
The statistical consequences of minimal length supposition are investigated for a canonical ensemble of ideal gas. These effects are encoded in the so-called Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) of the second order. In the frame work of the considered GUP scenario, a unique partition function is obtained by using of two different methods of quantum and classical approaches. It should be noti...
متن کاملPerturbative expansion in gauge theories on compact manifolds
A geometric formal method for perturbatively expanding functional integrals arising in quantum gauge theories is described when the spacetime is a compact riemannian manifold without boundary. This involves a refined version of the Faddeev-Popov procedure using a generalised Lorentz gauge-fixing condition with background gauge field chosen to be a general critical point for the action functiona...
متن کاملOn non-trivial spectra of trivial gauge theories
It is usually said that two-dimensional (1+1) gauge theories are trivial. In the continuum there are no transverse degrees of freedom to sustain any dynamics. Likewise, in the lattice formulation, the system factorizes (after gauge fixing) and a partition function reduces to a simple one-plaquette integral [1–3]. This picture neglects boundary conditions. It is well known [4] that, e.g., Quantu...

The QCD partition function in the external stationary gluomag-netic field is computed in the third order in external field invariants in arbitrary dimension and arbitrary covariant gauge. The contributions proportional to third order invariants in gluon field strength are shown to be dependent on covariant quantum gauge fixing parameter α.
متن کاملChern–Simons Perturbation Theory
We study the perturbation theory for three dimensional Chern–Simons quantum field theory on a general compact three manifold without boundary. We show that after a simple change of variables, the action obtained by BRS gauge fixing in the Lorentz gauge has a superspace formulation. The basic properties of the propagator and the Feynman rules are written in a precise manner in the language of di...
