Quantum Field Theory*
Quantum Field Theory y Frank Wilczek Institute for Advanced Study, School of Natural Science, Olden Lane, Princeton, NJ 08540 I discuss the general principles underlying quantum eld theory, and attempt to identify its most profound consequences. The deep est of these consequences result from the in nite number of degrees of freedom invoked to implement lo cality.Imention a few of its most striking successes, b oth achieved and prosp ective. Possible limitation s of quantum eld theory are viewed in the light of its history. I. SURVEY Quantum eld theory is the framework in which the regnant theories of the electroweak and strong interactions, which together form the Standard Mo del, are formulated. Quantum electro dynamics (QED), b esides providing a com- plete foundation for atomic physics and chemistry, has supp orted calculations of physical quantities with unparalleled precision. The exp erimentally measured value of the magnetic dip ole moment of the muon, 11 (g 2) = 233 184 600 (1680) 10 ; (1) exp: for example, should b e compared with the theoretical prediction 11 (g 2) = 233 183 478 (308) 10 : (2) theor: In quantum chromo dynamics (QCD) we cannot, for the forseeable future, aspire to to comparable accuracy.Yet QCD provides di erent, and at least equally impressive, evidence for the validity of the basic principles of quantum eld theory. Indeed, b ecause in QCD the interactions are stronger, QCD manifests a wider variety of phenomena characteristic of quantum eld theory. These include esp ecially running of the e ective coupling with distance or energy scale and the phenomenon of con nement. -
Covariant Momentum Map for Non-Abelian Topological BF Field
Covariant momentum map for non-Abelian topological BF field theory Alberto Molgado1,2 and Angel´ Rodr´ıguez–L´opez1 1 Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autonoma de San Luis Potosi Campus Pedregal, Av. Parque Chapultepec 1610, Col. Privadas del Pedregal, San Luis Potosi, SLP, 78217, Mexico 2 Dual CP Institute of High Energy Physics, Colima, Col, 28045, Mexico E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. We analyze the inherent symmetries associated to the non-Abelian topological BF theory from the geometric and covariant perspectives of the Lagrangian and the multisymplectic formalisms. At the Lagrangian level, we classify the symmetries of the theory as natural and Noether symmetries and construct the associated Noether currents, while at the multisymplectic level the symmetries of the theory arise as covariant canonical transformations. These transformations allowed us to build within the multisymplectic approach, in a complete covariant way, the momentum maps which are analogous to the conserved Noether currents. The covariant momentum maps are fundamental to recover, after the space plus time decomposition of the background manifold, not only the extended Hamiltonian of the BF theory but also the generators of the gauge transformations which arise in the instantaneous Dirac-Hamiltonian analysis of the first-class constraint structure that characterizes the BF model under study. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first non-trivial physical model associated to General Relativity for which both natural and Noether symmetries have been analyzed at the multisymplectic level. Our study shed some light on the understanding of the manner in which the generators of gauge transformations may be recovered from the multisymplectic formalism for field theory. -

Box 586, 34014 Trieste, Italy Abstract We carry out the first step of a program conceived, in order to build a realistic model, having the particle spectrum of the standard model and renormalized masses, interaction terms and couplings, etc. which include the class of quantum gravity corrections, obtained by handling gravity as an effective theory. This provides an adequate picture at low energies, i.e. much less than the scale of strong gravity (the Planck mass). Hence our results are valid, irrespectively of any proposal for the full quantum gravity as a fundamental theory. We consider only non-analytic contributions to the one-loop scattering matrix elements, which provide the dominant quantum effect at long distance. These contributions are finite and independent from the finite value of the renormalization counter terms of the effective lagrangian. We calculate the interaction of two heavy scalar particles, i.e. close to rest, due to the effective quantum gravity to the one loop order and compare with similar results in the literature.

Chapter 1 Introduction and Overview
Chapter 1 Introduction and Overview Particle physics is the most fundamental science there is. It is the study of the ultimate constituents of matter (the elementray particles) and of how these particles interact with one another (the fundamental forces). The primary aim of this module is to introduce you to what people mean when they refer to the Standard Model of Particle Physics To do this we need to describe the very small (via quantum mechanics) and the very fast since when elementary particles move, they travel at or close to the speed of light (via special relativity). These requirements demand we work in the language of Quantum Field Theory(QFT). QFT as a subject is a huge (and rather advanced) subject in its own right but thankfully we will be able to use a prescriptive (and rather simple) approach to the QFT which is embodied in the Feynman Rules - for those who want to go further into the theoretical structure of the Standard Model see module PX430 - Gauge Theories of Particle Physics. It is a remarkable fact that, theoretically, the fundamental interactions derive from an invariance of the QFT with respect to certain internal symmetry transformations known as local gauge transformations. The resulting dynamical theories of electromagnetism, the weak interaction and the strong interaction and known respectively as Quantum Elec- trodynamics(QED), the electroweak (or Glashow-Weinberg-Salam) theory and Quantum Chromodynamics(QCD). It is this collection of local gauge theories which have become known as the Standard Model(SM). N.B. Gravity plays a negligible role in Particle Physics and a workable quantum theory of gravity does not exist. -

It incorporates all the characteristics of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian descriptions of these systems ͑including dynamical equations and solutions, constraints, Legendre map, evolution operators, equiva- lence, etc.͒. In this work we extend this unified framework to first-order classical field theories, and show how this description comprises the main features of the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms, both for the regular and singular cases.

Lectures on Classical Mechanics
Lectures on Classical Mechanics John C. Baez Derek K. Wise (version of September 7, 2019) i c 2017 John C. Baez & Derek K. Wise ii iii Preface These are notes for a mathematics graduate course on classical mechanics at U.C. River- side. I've taught this course three times recently. Twice I focused on the Hamiltonian approach. In 2005 I started with the Lagrangian approach, with a heavy emphasis on action principles, and derived the Hamiltonian approach from that. This approach seems more coherent. Derek Wise took beautiful handwritten notes on the 2005 course, which can be found on my website: http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/classical/ Later, Blair Smith from Louisiana State University miraculously appeared and volun- teered to turn the notes into LATEX . While not yet the book I'd eventually like to write, the result may already be helpful for people interested in the mathematics of classical mechanics. The chapters in this LATEX version are in the same order as the weekly lectures, but I've merged weeks together, and sometimes split them over chapter, to obtain a more textbook feel to these notes. For reference, the weekly lectures are outlined here. Week 1: (Mar. 28, 30, Apr. 1)|The Lagrangian approach to classical mechanics: deriving F = ma from the requirement that the particle's path be a critical point of the action. The prehistory of the Lagrangian approach: D'Alembert's \principle of least energy" in statics, Fermat's \principle of least time" in optics, and how D'Alembert generalized his principle from statics to dynamics using the concept of \inertia force". -

Executive Summary Research Hub for Fundamental Symmetries
Section A - Executive Summary Research Hub for Fundamental Symmetries, Neutrinos, and Applications to Nuclear Astrophysics: The Inner Space/Outer Space/Cyber Space Connections of Nuclear Physics Intellectual Merit: The first goal of this proposal is to create a coordinated NSF national theory effort at the nuclear physics core of three of the most exciting \discovery" areas of physics: ◦ Neutrino Physics: Beyond-the-standard model (BSM) physics of neutrinos, including their mixing phenomena on earth and in extreme astrophysical environments; the absolute mass scale and the eigenstate behavior under particle-antiparticle conjugation, and the implication of mass and lepton number violation for cosmological evolution; and the relevance of neutri- nos to astrophysics both in transporting energy and lepton number, and as a probe of the otherwise hidden physics that governs the cores of stars and compact objects. ◦ Dense Matter: The recent start of Advanced LIGO Run 1 could well lead to the observation of the gravitational wave signatures from neutron star (NS) mergers by the end of the decade. This follows the observation of a NS of nearly two solar masses by Shapiro delay, and of \black-widow" systems hinting of even higher masses. Current and anticipated observations provide unprecedented opportunities to determine nuclear matter properties at densities and isospins not otherwise reachable, and to relate them to those we measure in laboratory nuclei. ◦ Dark Matter: Definitive evidence that dark matter (DM) dominates our universe is the second demonstration of BSM physics. Nuclear physics can play an important role in this field by helping direct-detection experimenters understand the variety and nature of the possible responses of their nuclear targets, by connecting the stellar processes we study to the feedback mechanisms that can alter galactic structure, and by contributing to the understanding of composite dark matter in cases where lattice QCD methods are relevant.
