Nambu mass hierarchies in strings

چکیده
We show that a recent proposal by Nambu to generate a hierarchy among Yukawa couplings in the standard model may be easily implemented in su-perstring models. In such models, two of the main ingredients of the Nambu proposal find a natural explanation: minimising with respect to the Yukawas amounts to a minimisation with respect to the underlying moduli fields and a constraint on the Yukawas of the type of the Veltman condition may be attributed to the relaxation process to a phenomenologically viable string vacuum. 0 1 Introduction.

Non-divergence of Gravitational Self Interactions for Goto-nambu Strings
The classical linearised gravitational self interaction of a Goto-Nambu string is examined in four spacetime dimensions. Using a conveniently gauge independent tensorial treatment, the divergent part of the self-force is shown to be exactly zero. This is due to cancelation by a contribution that was neglected in the previous treatments. This result has implications for many applications. Relati...
متن کاملNambu mass hierarchies in low energy string models
This paper explores a recent idea of Nambu to generate hierarchies among Yukawa couplings in the context of effective supergravity and superstrings models. The Yukawa couplings are homogeneous functions of the moduli and a geometrical constraint between them with a crucial role in the Nambu mechanism is found in a class of models of no-scale type. The Yukawas are dynamical variables at low ener...
متن کاملNambu–Goto Strings from SU( N ) Born-Infeld model
The spectrum of quenched Yang-Mills theory in the large–N limit displays strings and higher dimensional extended objects. The effective dynamics of string-like excitations is encoded into area preserving Schild action. In this letter, we bridge the gap between SU(N ) gauge models and fully reparametrization invariant Nambu–Goto string models by introducing an extra matrix degree of freedom in t...
متن کاملQuantum Effects for Extrinsic Geometry of Strings via the Generalized Weierstrass Representation
The generalized Weierstrass representation for surfaces in R is used to study quantum effects for strings governed by Polyakov-Nambu-Goto action. Correlators of primary fields are calculated exactly in one-loop approximation for the pure extrinsic Polyakov action. Geometrical meaning of infrared singularity is discussed. The Nambu-Goto and spontaneous curvature actions are treated perturbatively.

We calculate in the SU(6) gauge theory the mass of the lightest flux loop that winds around a spatial torus, as a function of the torus size, taking care to achieve control of the main systematic errors. For comparison we perform a similar calculation in SU(4). We demonstrate approximate linear confinement and show that the leading correction is consistent with what one expects if the flux tube...
