Looks bad, but we’ll see the the energy scale where it blows up is so fantastically large that we don’t need to worry (something new should fix it in the UV, e.g. grand unification can do the job). It does not run to zero in the IR, because there are no massless charged particles. It runs toward zero until it gets to the energy scale of the 3 lightest charged particle, me =0.5MeV , and then it stops running. So 137 = 3π ln(Λ/me). Gives Λ = me exp(137π), which too huge to worry about the apparent Landau pole there. (Other charged particles will bring the scale of Λ down to Λ = me exp(137π/Nf ) where Nf is the effective number of charged particles, but it’s still huge.)

  • Finite Quantum Gauge Theories
    Finite quantum gauge theories Leonardo Modesto1,∗ Marco Piva2,† and Les law Rachwa l1‡ 1Center for Field Theory and Particle Physics and Department of Physics, Fudan University, 200433 Shanghai, China 2Dipartimento di Fisica “Enrico Fermi”, Universit`adi Pisa, Largo B. Pontecorvo 3, 56127 Pisa, Italy (Dated: August 24, 2018) We explicitly compute the one-loop exact beta function for a nonlocal extension of the standard gauge theory, in particular Yang-Mills and QED. The theory, made of a weakly nonlocal kinetic term and a local potential of the gauge field, is unitary (ghost-free) and perturbatively super- renormalizable. Moreover, in the action we can always choose the potential (consisting of one “killer operator”) to make zero the beta function of the running gauge coupling constant. The outcome is a UV finite theory for any gauge interaction. Our calculations are done in D = 4, but the results can be generalized to even or odd spacetime dimensions. We compute the contribution to the beta function from two different killer operators by using two independent techniques, namely the Feynman diagrams and the Barvinsky-Vilkovisky traces. By making the theories finite we are able to solve also the Landau pole problems, in particular in QED. Without any potential the beta function of the one-loop super-renormalizable theory shows a universal Landau pole in the running coupling constant in the ultraviolet regime (UV), regardless of the specific higher-derivative structure. However, the dressed propagator shows neither the Landau pole in the UV, nor the singularities in the infrared regime (IR). We study a class of new actions of fundamental nature that infinities in the perturbative calculus appear only for gauge theories that are super-renormalizable or finite up to some finite loop order.

We account for the 3-loop renormalization group evolution of the couplings of the Standard Model and for a part of two-loop corrections that involve the QCD coupling αs to initial conditions for their running. This is one step above the current state of the art procedure (\one-loop matching{two-loop running"). This results in reduction of the theoretical uncertainties in the Higgs boson mass bounds and predictions, associated with the Standard Model physics, to 1−2 GeV. We find that with the account of existing experimental uncertainties in the mass of the top quark and αs (taken at 2σ level) the bound reads MH ≥ Mmin (equality corresponds to the asymptotic safety prediction), where Mmin = 129 ± 6 GeV. We argue that the discovery of the SM Higgs boson in this range would be in arXiv:1205.2893v1 [hep-ph] 13 May 2012 agreement with the hypothesis of the absence of new energy scales between the Fermi and Planck scales, whereas the coincidence of MH with Mmin would suggest that the electroweak scale is determined by Planck physics.

  • Physics and Mathematics of Quantum Field Theory
    Physics and Mathematics of Quantum Field Theory Jan Derezinski´ (University of Warsaw), Stefan Hollands (Leipzig University), Karl-Henning Rehren (Gottingen¨ University) July 29, 2018 – August 3, 2018 1 Overview of the Field The origins of quantum field theory (QFT) date back to the early days of quantum physics. Having developed quantum mechanics, describing non-relativistic systems of a finite number of degrees of freedom, physicists tried to apply similar ideas to relativistic classical field theories such as electrodynamics following early attempts already made by the founding fathers of quantum mechanics. Since quantum mechanics is usually “derived” from classical mechanics by a procedure called quantization, the first attempts tried to mimick this procedure for classical field theories. But it was clear almost from the beginning that this endeavor would not work without qualitatively new ideas, owing both to the new difficulties presented by relativistic kinematics, as well as to the fact that field theories, while possessing a Lagrangian/Hamiltonian formulation just as classical mechanics, effectively describe infinitely many degrees of freedom. In particular, QFT completely dissolved the classical distinction between “particles” (like the electron) and “fields” (like the electromagnetic field). Instead, the dichotomy in nomenclature acquired a very different meaning: Fields are the fundamental entities for all sorts of matter, while particles are manifestations when the fields arise in special states. Thus, from the outset, one is dealing with systems with an unlimited number of particles. Early successes of quantum field theory consolidated by the early 50’s, such as precise computations of the Lamb shifts of the Hydrogen and of the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron, were accompanied around the same time by the first attempts to formalize this theory in a more mathematical fashion.

  • Renormalization of Dirac's Polarized Vacuum
    RENORMALIZATION OF DIRAC’S POLARIZED VACUUM MATHIEU LEWIN Abstract. We review recent results on a mean-field model for rela- tivistic electrons in atoms and molecules, which allows to describe at the same time the self-consistent behavior of the polarized Dirac sea. We quickly derive this model from Quantum Electrodynamics and state the existence of solutions, imposing an ultraviolet cut-off Λ. We then discuss the limit Λ → ∞ in detail, by resorting to charge renormaliza- tion. Proceedings of the Conference QMath 11 held in Hradec Kr´alov´e(Czechia) in September 2010. c 2010 by the author. This paper may be reproduced, in its entirety, for non-commercial purposes. For heavy atoms, it is necessary to take relativistic effects into account. However there is no equivalent of the well-known N-body (non-relativistic) Schr¨odinger theory involving the Dirac operator, because of its negative spectrum. The correct theory is Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). This theory has a remarkable predictive power but its description in terms of perturbation theory restricts its range of applicability. In fact a mathemat- ically consistent formulation of the nonperturbative theory is still unknown. On the other hand, effective models deduced from nonrelativistic theories (like the Dirac-Hartree-Fock model [40, 16]) suffer from inconsistencies: for instance a ground state never minimizes the physical energy which is always unbounded from below. Here we present an effective model based on a physical energy which can be minimized to obtain the ground state in a chosen charge sector. Our model describes the behavior of a finite number of particles (electrons), cou- pled to that of the Dirac sea which can become polarized.

  • Is the Higgs Boson Composed of Neutrinos?
    Is the Higgs Boson Composed of Neutrinos? Jens Krog1, ∗ and Christopher T. Hill2, y 1CP3-Origins, University of Southern Denmark Campusvej 55, 5230 Odense M, Denmark 2Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory P.O. Box 500, Batavia, Illinois 60510, USA (Dated: January 16, 2020) We show that conventional Higgs compositeness conditions can be achieved by the running of large Higgs-Yukawa couplings involving right-handed neutrinos that become active at ∼ 1013 − 1014 GeV. Together with a somewhat enhanced quartic coupling, arising by a Higgs portal interaction to a dark matter sector, we can obtain a Higgs boson composed of neutrinos. This is a "next-to-minimal" dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking scheme. PACS numbers: 14.80.Bn,14.80.-j,14.80.Da I. INTRODUCTION treatment indicates that a tt composite Higgs boson re- quires (i) a Landau pole at scale Λ in the running top HY Many years ago it was proposed that the top quark coupling constant, yt(µ), (ii) the Higgs-quartic coupling λH must also have a Landau pole, and (iii) compositeness Higgs-Yukawa (HY) coupling, yt, might be large and 4 conditions must be met, such as λH (µ)=gt (µ) ! 0 and governed by a quasi-infrared-fixed point behavior of the 2 renormalization group [1, 2]. This implied, using the min- λH (µ)=gt (µ) !(constant) as µ ! Λ, [5]. This predicts a imal ingredients of the Standard Model, a top quark mass Higgs boson mass of order ∼ 250 GeV with a heavy top quark of order ∼ 220 GeV, predictions that come within of order 220−240 GeV for the case of a Landau pole in yt at a scale, Λ, of order the GUT to Planck scale.

This is based on a number of evidences, both numerical and analytical. One of the strong indications for triviality of QED is the existence of the Landau pole for the running coupling. We show that by treating QED as the leading order approximation of an effective field theory and including the next-to-leading order corrections, the Landau pole is removed. Therefore, we conclude that the conjecture, that for reasons of self- consistency, QED needs to be trivial is a mere artefact of the leading order approximation to the corresponding effective field theory.

  • Quantum Mechanics Renormalization
    Quantum Mechanics_renormalization In quantum field theory, the statistical mechanics of fields, and the theory of self- similar geometric structures, renormalization is any of a collection of techniques used to treat infinities arising in calculated quantities. When describing space and time as a continuum, certain statistical and quantum mechanical constructions are ill defined. To define them, thecontinuum limit has to be taken carefully. Renormalization establishes a relationship between parameters in the theory when the parameters describing large distance scales differ from the parameters describing small distances. Renormalization was first developed in Quantum electrodynamics (QED) to make sense of infiniteintegrals in perturbation theory. Initially viewed as a suspicious provisional procedure even by some of its originators, renormalization eventually was embraced as an important andself-consistent tool in several fields of physics andmathematics. Self-interactions in classical physics Figure 1. Renormalization in quantum electrodynamics: The simple electron-photon interaction that determines the electron's charge at one renormalization point is revealed to consist of more complicated interactions at another. The problem of infinities first arose in the classical electrodynamics of point particles in the 19th and early 20th century. The mass of a charged particle should include the mass-energy in its electrostatic field (Electromagnetic mass). Assume that the particle is a charged spherical shell of radius . The mass-energy in the field is which becomes infinite in the limit as approaches zero. This implies that the point particle would have infinite inertia, making it unable to be accelerated. Incidentally, the value of that makes equal to the electron mass is called the classical electron radius, which (setting and restoring factors of and ) turns out to be where is the fine structure constant, and is the Compton wavelength of the electron.

  • Landau Poles in Condensed Matter Systems
    PHYSICAL REVIEW RESEARCH 2, 023310 (2020) Landau poles in condensed matter systems Shao-Kai Jian ,1 Edwin Barnes ,2 and Sankar Das Sarma1 1Condensed Matter Theory Center and Joint Quantum Institute, Department of Physics, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742, USA 2Department of Physics, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia 24061, USA (Received 12 March 2020; revised manuscript received 7 May 2020; accepted 21 May 2020; published 9 June 2020) The existence or not of Landau poles is one of the oldest open questions in nonasymptotic quantum field theories. We investigate the Landau pole issue in two condensed matter systems whose long-wavelength physics is described by appropriate quantum field theories: the critical quantum magnet and Dirac fermions in graphene with long-range Coulomb interactions. The critical quantum magnet provides a classic example of a quantum phase transition, and it is well described by the φ4 theory. We find that the irrelevant but symmetry-allowed couplings, such as the φ6 potential, can significantly change the fate of the Landau pole in the emergent φ4 theory. We obtain the coupled β functions of a φ4 + φ6 potential at both small and large orders. Already from the one-loop calculation, the Landau pole is replaced by an ultraviolet fixed point. A Lipatov analysis at large orders reveals that the inclusion of a φ6 term also has important repercussions for the high-order expansion of the β functions. We also investigate the role of the Landau pole in a very different system: Dirac fermions in 2 + 1 dimensions with long-range Coulomb interactions, e.g., graphene.
