量子时空的谱维数和维数谱

Spectral dimensions and dimension spectra of quantum spacetimes

Michał Eckstein, Tomasz Trześniewski

摘要:

量子引力的不同方法通常预测基本水平的时空维度不是4。测量理论的IR和UV尺度之间的维度如何变化的主要工具是光谱维度。另一方面,非对易几何的观点表明,量子时空的特征应该是一个离散的复集合--维数谱。在这里,我们表明,这两个概念相互补充,尺寸谱是非常有用的解开光谱尺寸的UV行为。我们进行了一个扩展的分析,突出的麻烦点,并说明了一般的结果与两个具体的例子:量子球和$κ$ -闵可夫斯基时空,为几个不同的拉普拉斯算子。特别是,我们发现前者的谱维数表现出对数周期振荡,其振幅迅速衰减的变形参数趋于经典值。相比之下,在$κ$ -闵可夫斯基时空中的三个拉普拉斯算子都没有发生这样的振荡。

英文摘要:

Different approaches to quantum gravity generally predict that the dimension of spacetime at the fundamental level is not 4. The principal tool to measure how the dimension changes between the IR and UV scales of the theory is the spectral dimension. On the other hand, the noncommutative-geometric perspective suggests that quantum spacetimes ought to be characterised by a discrete complex set -- the dimension spectrum. Here we show that these two notions complement each other and the dimension spectrum is very useful in unravelling the UV behaviour of the spectral dimension. We perform an extended analysis highlighting the trouble spots and illustrate the general results with two concrete examples: the quantum sphere and the $κ$-Minkowski spacetime, for a few different Laplacians. In particular, we find out that the spectral dimensions of the former exhibit log-periodic oscillations, the amplitude of which decays rapidly as the deformation parameter tends to the classical value. In contrast, no such oscillations occur for either of the three considered Laplacians on the $κ$-Minkowski spacetime.
