چکیده

Many features of dimensional reduction schemes are determined by the breaking of higher dimensional general covariance associated with the selection of a particular subset of coordinates. By investigating residual covariance we introduce lower dimensional tensors, that successfully generalize to one side Kaluza-Klein gauge fields and to the other side extrinsic curvature and torsion of embedded spaces, thus fully characterizing the geometry of dimensional reduction. We obtain general formulas for the reduction of the main tensors and operators of Riemannian geometry. In particular, we provide what is probably the maximal possible generalization of Gauss, Codazzi and Ricci equations and various other standard formulas in Kaluza-Klein and embedded spacetimes theories. After general covariance breaking, part of the residual covariance is perceived by effective lower dimensional observers as an infinite dimensional gauge group. This reduces to finite dimensions in Kaluza-Klein and other few remarkable backgrounds, all characterized by the vanishing of appropriate lower dimensional tensors.

Chiral phase transitions in strong chromomagnetic fields at finite temperature and dimensional reduction

Dynamical fermion mass generation in external chromomagnetic fields is considered at non–zero temperature. The general features of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (DχSB) are investigated for several field configurations in relation to their symmetry properties and the form of the quark spectrum. According to the fields, there arises dimensional reduction by one or two units. In all cases the...

Partial breaking of global D = 4 supersymmetry, constrained superfields, and 3-brane actions

We show that the connection between partial breaking of supersymmetry and nonlinear actions is not accidental and has to do with constraints that lead directly to nonlinear actions of the Born-Infeld type. We develop a constrained superfield approach that gives a universal way of deriving and using these actions. In particular, we find the manifestly supersymmetric form of the action of the 3-b...

Asymptotic Efficiencies of the MLE Based on Bivariate Record Values from Bivariate Normal Distribution

Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) estimation based on bivariate record data is considered as the general inference problem. Assume that the process of observing k records is repeated m times, independently. The asymptotic properties including consistency and asymptotic normality of the Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimates of parameters of the underlying distribution is then established, when m is ...

Fast Covariance Computation and Dimensionality Reduction for Sub-window Features in Images

This paper presents algorithms for efficiently computing the covariance matrix for features that form sub-windows in a large multidimensional image. For example, several image processing applications, e.g. texture analysis/synthesis, image retrieval, and compression, operate upon patches within an image. These patches are usually projected onto a low-dimensional feature space using dimensionali...
