Quantization Rules for Dynamical Systems

Quantization of Non-Polynomial Field Theories

We re-examine the quantization of a class of non-polynomial scalar field theories which interpolates continuously from a free one to $ϕ^4$ theory. The quantization of such theories is problematic because the Feynman rules may not be directly obtained. We give a means for calculating the correlation functions in this theory. The Feynman rules developed here shall enable further progress in the understanding of the triviality of $ϕ^4$ theory in four dimensions.

Quantization of kappa-deformed free fields and kappa-deformed oscillators

We describe the deformed E.T. quantization rules for kappa-deformed free quantum fields, and relate these rules with the kappa-deformed algebra of field oscillators.

BFFT quantization and dynamical solutions of a fluid field theory

We study a field theory formulation of a fluid mechanical model. We implement the Hamiltonian formalism by using the BFFT conjecture in order to build a gauge invariant fluid field theory. We also generalize previous known classical dynamical field solutions for the fluid model.

Are quantization rules for horizon areas universal?

Doubts have been expressed on the universality of holographic/string-inspired quantization rules for the horizon areas of stationary black holes or the products of their radii, already in simple 4-dimensional general relativity. Realistic black holes are not stationary but time-dependent. Using two examples of 4D general-relativistic spacetimes containing dynamical black holes for at least part of the time, it is shown that the quantization rules (even counting virtual horizons) cannot hold, except possibly at isolated instants of time, and do not seem to be universal.

Exactness of Semiclassical Quantization Rule for Broken Supersymmetry

Semiclassical methods provide important tools for approximating solutions in quantum mechanics. In several cases these methods are intriguingly exact rather than approximate, as has been shown by direct calculations on particular systems. In this paper we prove that the long-conjectured exactness of the supersymmetry-based semiclassical quantization condition for broken supersymmetry is a consequence of the additive shape invariance for the corresponding potentials.

Stochastic Quantization Approach for Causal Dynamical Triangulation String Field Theory

We construct a 2-dimensional Causal Dynamical Triangulation (CDT) model from a matrix model which represents the loop gas model of closed string. The target-space index is reinterpreted as time or geodesic distance. We apply stochastic quantization method to the model to obtain the Generalized CDT (GCDT), which has additional interaction of creating baby universe. If we take a specific scaling in continuum limit, we realize an extended GCDT model characterized by the non-critical string field theory.

Canonical Quantization of Noncommutative Field Theory

A simple method to canonically quantize noncommutative field theories is proposed. As a result, the elementary excitations of a (2n+1)-dimensional scalar field theory are shown to be bilocal objects living in an (n+1)-dimensional space-time. Feynman rules for their scattering are derived canonically. They agree, upon suitable redefinitions, with the rules obtained via star-product methods. The IR/UV connection is interpreted within this framework.

Dynamical Zero Modes and Criticality in Continuous Light Cone Quantization of Phi^{4}_{1+1}

Critical behaviour of the 2D scalar field theory in the LC framework is reviewed. The notion of dynamical zero modes is introduced and shown to lead to a non trivial covariant dispersion relation only for Continuous LC Quantization (CLCQ). The critical exponent $η$ is found to be governed by the behaviour of the infinite volume limit under conformal transformations properties preserving the local LC structure. The $β$-function is calculated exactly and found non-analytic, with a critical exponent $ω=2$, in agreement with the conformal field theory analysis of Calabrese et al.

Solving the Insoluble: A New Rule for Quantization

The rules of canonical quantization normally offer good results, but sometimes they fail, e.g., leading to quantum triviality ($=$ free) for certain examples that are classically nontrivial ($\ne$ free). A new procedure, called Enhanced Quantization, relates classical models with their quantum partners differently and leads to satisfactory results for all systems. This paper features enhanced quantization procedures and provides highlights of two examples, a rotationally symmetric model and an ultralocal scalar model, for which canonical quantization fails while enhanced quantization succeeds.

A proposal for a generalized canonical osp(1,2) quantization of dynamical systems with constraints

The aim of this paper is to consider a possibility of constructing for arbitrary dynamical systems with first-class constraints a generalized canonical quantization method based on the osp(1,2) supersymmetry principle. This proposal can be considered as a counterpart to the osp(1,2)-covariant Lagrangian quantization method introduced recently by Geyer, Lavrov and Mülsch. The gauge dependence of Green's functions is studied. It is shown that if the parameter m^2 of the osp(1,2) superalgebra is not equal to zero then the vacuum functional and S-matrix depend on the gauge. In the limit $m\to 0$ t…

Canonical quantization of the string with dynamical geometry and anomaly free nontrivial string in two dimensions

Hamiltonian formulation of the string with dynamical geometry and two-dimensional gravity with torsion is given. Canonical Hamiltonian equals to the linear combination of first class constraints satisfying closed algebra. It is the semidirect sum of the Virasoro algebra and the abelian subalgebra corresponding to the local Lorentz rotation. After making the canonical transformation the theory is quantized. It is proved that there exists Fock space representation of pure two-dimensional gravity with torsion containing no central charge in the Virasoro algebra. Also constructed is the new Fock r…

Supersymmetry breaking in M-theory and quantization rules

We analyze in detail supersymmetry breaking by compactification of the fifth dimension in M-theory in the compactification pattern $11d \to 5d \to 4d$ and find that a superpotential is generated for the complex fields coming from $5d$ hypermultiplets, namely the dilaton $S$ and the complex structure moduli. Using general arguments it is shown that these fields are always stabilized such that they don't contribute to supersymmetry breaking, which is completely saturated by the Kähler moduli coming from vector multiplets. It is shown that this mechanism is the strong-coupling analog of the Rohm-…

Superfield formulation of the Lagrangian BRST quantization method

Lagragian quantization rules for general gauge theories are proposed on a basis of a superfield formulation of the standard BRST symmetry. Independence of the $S$-matrix on a choice of the gauge is proved. The Ward identities in terms of superfields are derived.

Para-Generalization of Peierls Bracket Quantization

A convenient formalism is developed to treat classical dynamical systems involving $(p=2)$ parafermionic and parabosonic dynamical variables. This is achieved via the introduction of a parabracket which summarizes the paracommutation relations of the corresponding Green components in a unified manner. Furthermore, it is shown that Peierls quantization scheme may be applied to such systems provided that one uses the above mentioned parabracket to express the quantum paracommutation relations. Application of the Peierls scheme also provides the form of the parafermionic and parabosonic kinetic t…

Dynamical invariants and quantization of the one-dimensional time-dependent, damped, and driven harmonic oscillator

In this paper, it is proposed a quantization procedure for the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator with time-dependent frequency, time-dependent driven force, and time-dependent dissipative term. The method is based on the construction of dynamical invariants previously proposed by the authors, in which fundamental importance is given to the linear invariants of the oscillator.

Selection rules for splitting strings

It has been pointed out that Nielsen-Olesen vortices may be able to decay by pair production of black holes. We show that when the abelian Higgs model is embedded in a larger theory, the additional fields may lead to selection rules for this process - even in the absence of fermions - due to the failure of a charge quantization condition. We show that, when there is topology change, the criterion based on the charge quantization condition supplements the usual criterion based on $π_0(H)$. In particular, we find that, unless $2\sin^2θ_W$ is a rational number, the thermal splitting of electrowea…

The non-triviality of the vacuum in light-front quantization: An elementary treatment

It is often stated that the vacuum is trivial when light-front (null-plane) quantization is applied to a quantum field theory, in contrast to the situation with equal-time quantization. In fact, it is has long been known that the statement is false, and that in certain cases the standard rules for light-front perturbation theory need modification. This paper gives an elementary review of these issues, including an explanation of how and when there is a failure of the elementary derivation of the rules for light-front perturbation theory.

Deterministic Quantization by Dynamical Boundary Conditions

We propose an unexplored quantization method. It is based on the assumption of dynamical space-time intrinsic periodicities for relativistic fields, which in turn can be regarded as dual to extra-dimensional fields. As a consequence we obtain a unified and consistent interpretation of Special Relativity and Quantum Mechanics in terms of Deterministic Geometrodynamics.

Canonical Quantization of the Maxwell-Chern-Simons Theory in the Coulomb Gauge

The Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory is canonically quantized in the Coulomb gauge by using the Dirac bracket quantization procedure. The determination of the Coulomb gauge polarization vector turns out to be intrincate. A set of quantum Poincaré densities obeying the Dirac-Schwinger algebra, and, therefore, free of anomalies, is constructed. The peculiar analytical structure of the polarization vector is shown to be at the root for the existence of spin of the massive gauge quanta.The Coulomb gauge Feynman rules are used to compute the Möller scattering amplitude in the lowest order of perturbatio…

Superstar in Noncommutative Superspace via Covariant Quantization of the Superparticle

A covariant quantization method is developed for the off-shell superparticle in 10 dimensions. On-shell it is consistent with lightcone quantization, while off-shell it gives a noncommutative superspace that realizes non-linearly a hidden 11-dimensional super Poincare symmetry. The non-linear commutation rules are then used to construct the supersymmetric generalization of the covariant Moyal star product in noncommutative superspace. As one of the possible applications, we propose this new product as the star product in supersymmetric string field theory. Furthermore, the formalism introduces…

Dynamical Quantization of Contact Structures

We construct a dynamical quantization for contact manifolds in terms of a flat connection acting on a Hilbert tractor bundle. We show that this contact quantization, which is independent of the choice of contact form, can be obtained by quantizing the Reeb dynamics of an ambient strict contact manifold equivariantly with respect to an R+-action. The contact quantization further determines a certain contact tractor connection whose parallel sections determine a distinguished choice of Reeb dynamics and their quantization. This relationship relies on tractor constructions from parabolic geometri…

Quantization of non-Hamiltonian and Dissipative Systems

A generalization of canonical quantization which maps a dynamical operator to a dynamical superoperator is suggested. Weyl quantization of dynamical operator, which cannot be represented as Poisson bracket with some function, is considered. The usual Weyl quantization of observables is a specific case of suggested quantization. This approach allows to define consistent quantization procedure for non-Hamiltonian and dissipative systems. Examples of the harmonic oscillator with friction (generalized Lorenz-Rossler-Leipnik-Newton equation), the Fokker-Planck-type system and Lorenz-type system are…

Batalin-Tyutin quantization of dynamical boundary of AdS$_2$

In a two-dimensional AdS space, a dynamical boundary of AdS space was described by a one-dimensional quantum-mechanical Hamiltonian with a coupling between the bulk and boundary system. In this paper, we present a Lagrangian corresponding to the Hamiltonian through the Legendre transformation with a constraint. In Dirac's constraint analysis, we find two primary constraints without secondary constraints; however, they are fully second-class. In order to make the second-class constraint system into a first-class constraint system, we employ the Batalin-Tyutin Hamiltonian method, where the exten…

Quantization of Four-form Fluxes and Dynamical Neutralization of the Cosmological Constant

A four-form gauge flux makes a variable contribution to the cosmological constant. This has often been assumed to take continuous values, but we argue that it has a generalized Dirac quantization condition. For a single flux the steps are much larger than the observational limit, but we show that with multiple fluxes the allowed values can form a sufficiently dense `discretuum'. Multiple fluxes generally arise in M theory compactifications on manifolds with non-trivial three-cycles. In theories with large extra dimensions a few four-forms suffice; otherwise of order 100 are needed. Starting fr…

Quantization on space-like surfaces

We give a mathematical definition of dynamical evolution in quantum field theory, including evolution on space-like surfaces, and show its relationship with the axiomatic and perturbative approaches to QFT.

Quantum and Classical Fields in the Finite-Dimensional Formalism

The quantization rules recently proposed by M. Navarro (and independently I.V. Kanatchikov) for a finite-dimensional formulation of quantum field theory are applied to the Klein-Gordon and the Dirac fields to obtain the quantum equations of motion of both fields. In doing so several problems arise. Solving these difficulties leads us to propose a new classical canonical formalism, which, in turn, leads us to new, improved rules of quantization. We show that the new classical equations of motion and rules of quantization overcome several known unsatisfactory features of the previous formalism. …

BV quantization of dynamical fuzzy spectral triples

This paper provides a systematic study of gauge symmetries in the dynamical fuzzy spectral triple models for quantum gravity that have been proposed by Barrett and collaborators. We develop both the classical and the perturbative quantum BV formalism for these models, which in particular leads to an explicit homological construction of the perturbative quantum correlation functions. We show that the relevance of ghost and antifield contributions to such correlation functions depends strongly on the background Dirac operator $D_0$ around which one perturbs, and in particular on the amount of ga…

Canonical Quantization of Noncompact Spin System

We consider spin system defined on the coadjoint orbit with noncompact symmetry and investigate the quantization. Classical spin with noncompact SU(N,1) symmetry is first formulated as a dynamical system and the constraint analysis is performed to reduce the system from the group space to the coadjoint orbit which is a symplectic manifold with Kahler structure. We achieve this by solving the constraint directly. It is shown that the dynamical variables describing the noncompact spins can be written as functions of canonically conjugate variables and canonical quantization is possible on the re…

Quantization of Constrained Systems

The present article is primarily a review of the projection-operator approach to quantize systems with constraints. We study the quantization of systems with general first- and second-class constraints from the point of view of coherent-state, phase-space path integration, and show that all such cases may be treated, within the original classical phase space, by using suitable path-integral measures for the Lagrange multipliers which ensure that the quantum system satisfies the appropriate quantum constraint conditions. Unlike conventional methods, our procedures involve no $δ$-functionals of …
