具有物质场的因果集的动力学:基于拉格朗日的方法

Dynamics for causal sets with matter fields: A Lagrangian-based approach

Roman Sverdlov, Luca Bombelli

摘要:

我们提出了一个因果集和耦合物质场的动力学框架,这是我们最近提出的一种方法的简化和推广。给定一组包括引力场在内的场,实现我们的建议的主要步骤是用因果序和体积元作为时空几何的变量,写出它们基于连续统的作用量。然后,离散化的结果表达,与一个程序设计,以保持协方差。在讨论了一般框架之后,我们详细讨论了标量场、杨-米尔斯规范场和引力场的情形。

英文摘要:

We present a framework for the dynamics of causal sets and coupled matter fields, which is a simplification and generalization of an approach we recently proposed. Given a set of fields including the gravitational one, the main step in implementing our proposal consists in writing their continuum-based action using as variables for the spacetime geometry the causal order and volume element. One then discretizes the resulting expression, with a procedure designed to maintain covariance. After a discussion of the general framework, we treat in detail the case of scalar fields, Yang-Mills gauge fields and the gravitational field.
