Hodge理论的场论模型

A field-theoretic model for Hodge theory

Saurabh Gupta, R. P. Malik

摘要:

我们证明了4(3 + 1)维自由阿贝尔2-形式规范理论为Hodge理论提供了一个易于处理的场论模型,其中定义良好的对称变换对应于微分几何的de Rham上同调算子.对应于上述连续对称变换的守恒电荷服从一个代数,这让人想起上同调算子所服从的代数。该理论的离散对称变换代表了存在于微分几何的外导数和余外导数之间关系中的霍奇对偶运算的实现。因此,我们提供了所有的数学量的实现,与德拉姆上同调算子,在目前的四维自由阿贝尔2-形式规范理论的对称性的语言。

英文摘要:

We demonstrate that the four (3 + 1)-dimensional free Abelian 2-form gauge theory presents a tractable field theoretical model for the Hodge theory where the well-defined symmetry transformations correspond to the de Rham cohomological operators of differential geometry. The conserved charges, corresponding to the above continuous symmetry transformations, obey an algebra that is reminiscent of the algebra obeyed by the cohomological operators. The discrete symmetry transformation of the theory represents the realization of the Hodge duality operation that exists in the relationship between the exterior and co-exterior derivatives of differential geometry. Thus, we provide the realizations of all the mathematical quantities, associated with the de Rham cohomological operators, in the language of the symmetries of the present 4D free Abelian 2-form gauge theory.
