Lagrangian quantization versus representation-theoretical approach to QFT
نویسنده
چکیده
This is a pedagogical attempt to elucidate the conceptual and mathematical differences between Lagrangian quantization, causal perturbation theory guided by the setting of algebraic QFT and some recent developments of nonperturbative intrinsic constructions of QFT based on the conceptual setting of AQFT.

Motivations and Physical Aims of Algebraic QFT
We present illustrations which show the usefulness of algebraic QFT. In particular in low-dimensional QFT, when Lagrangian quantization is not available or is useless (e.g. in chiral conformal theories), the algebraic method is beginning to reveal its strength. This work is dedicated to the memory of Claude Itzykson
متن کاملConstructive use of holographic projections Dedicated to Klaus Fredenhagen on the occasion of his 60th birthday
Revisiting the old problem of existence of interacting models of QFT with new conceptual ideas and mathematical tools, one arrives at a novel view about the nature of QFT. The recent success of algebraic methods in establishing the existence of factorizing models suggests new directions for a more intrinsic constructive approach beyond Lagrangian quantization. Holographic projection simplifies ...
متن کاملWigner Particle Theory and Local Quantum Physics Lucio
Wigner’s theory of positive energy representations of the Poincaré group has been often used to give additional justifications for the Lagrangian quantization approach to QFT. Here we show that by extension with a modular localization structure it can directly lead to the net of local algebras without the use of any pointlike field-coordinatization. The same modular methods reveal that among th...
متن کاملRelativistic Bound States
In this contribution, I will give a brief survey of present techniques to treat the bound state problem in relativistic quantum field theories. In particular, I will discuss the Bethe–Salpeter equation, various quasi–potential equations, the Feynman–Schwinger representation, and similarity transformation methods for Hamiltonian approaches in light–front quantization. Finally, I will comment on ...
متن کاملColor image watermarking using quaternion Fourier transform
This paper presents a digital color image watermarking scheme using the hypercomplex numbers representation and the Quaternion Fourier Transform (QFT). Previous color image watermarking methods are first presented and the quaternion representation is then described. In this framework RGB pixel values are associated with an unique quaternion number having three imaginary parts. The QFT is presen...
