We consider a gauge theory of vector fields in 3D Minkowski space. At the free level, the dynamical variables are subjected to the extended Chern–Simons (ECS) equations with higher derivatives. If the color index takes n values, the third-order model admits a 2n-parameter series of second-rank conserved tensors, which includes the canonical energy–momentum. Even though the canonical energy is unbounded, the other representatives in the series have a bounded from below the 00-component. The theory admits consistent self-interactions with the Yang–Mills gauge symmetry. The Lagrangian couplings preserve the energy–momentum tensor that is unbounded from below, and they do not lead to a stable non-linear theory. The non-Lagrangian couplings are consistent with the existence of a conserved tensor with a 00-component bounded from below. These models are stable at the non-linear level. The dynamics of interacting theory admit a constraint Hamiltonian form. The Hamiltonian density is given by the 00-component of the conserved tensor. In the case of stable interactions, the Poisson bracket and Hamiltonian do not follow from the canonical Ostrogradski construction. Particular attention is paid to the “triply massless” ECS theory, which demonstrates instability even at the free level. It is shown that the introduction of extra scalar field, serving as Higgs, can stabilize the dynamics in the vicinity of the local minimum of energy. The equations of motion of the stable model are non-Lagrangian, but they admit the Hamiltonian form of dynamics with a Hamiltonian that is bounded from below.

The 4D Maxwell theory with single-sided planar boundary is considered. As a consequence of the presence of the boundary, two broken Ward identities are recovered, which, on-shell, give rise to two conserved currents living on the edge. A Kaç-Moody algebra formed by a subset of the bulk fields is obtained with central charge proportional to the inverse of the Maxwell coupling constant, and the degrees of freedom of the boundary theory are identified as two vector fields, also suggesting that the 3D theory should be a gauge theory. Finally the holographic contact between bulk and boundary theory is reached in two inequivalent ways, both leading to a unique 3D action describing a new gauge theory of two coupled vector fields with a topological Chern-Simons term with massive coefficient. In order to check that the 3D projection of 4D Maxwell theory is well defined, we computed the energy-momentum tensor and the propagators. The role of discrete symmetries is briefly discussed.

Abstract It is shown that the self-duality constraint on the scalar field (combined with the equations of motion) by itself leads to the critical forms for the potential that minimizes the energy functional in the Chern-Simons-Higgs (CSH) system. If we have only the Chern-Simons (CS) term in the SL (2, R) gauge group one obtains a formalism that yields the equations of motion of a variety on non-linear models in two dimensions when the curvature is set equal to zero.

Heisenberg and Pauli (1) have shown how to quantize field theories derived from a Lagrangian containing first derivatives of the field quantities only. The present paper extends the theory of quantization of fields to the case of higher order Lagrangians, i.e. Lagrangians in which higher derivatives than the first appear. It is shown how such field equations can be put into Hamiltonian form and how the quantization can subsequently be carried out. Both the cases of Einstein-Bose and Fermi-Dirac quantization are discussed. It is established that the quantization is relativistically invariant and consistent with the field equations. An interesting feature of the present theory is that the Hamiltonian proves to be different, in general, from the integral of the 4–4 component of the energy momentum tensor.

Abstract We explore the role of torsion as source of spin current in strongly interacting conformal fluids using holography. We establish the constitutive relations of the basic hydrodynamic variables, the energy-momentum tensor and the spin current based on the classification of the spin sources in irreducible Lorentz representations. The fluids we consider are assumed to be described by the five dimensional Lovelock-Chern-Simons gravity with independent vielbein and spin connection. We construct a hydrodynamic expansion that involves the stress tensor and the spin current and compute the corresponding one-point functions holographically. As a byproduct we find a class of interesting analytic solutions to the Lovelock-Chern-Simons gravity, including blackholes, by mapping the equations of motion into non-linear algebraic constraints for the sources. We also derive a Lee-Wald entropy formula for these blackholes in Chern-Simons theories with torsion. The blackhole solutions determine the thermodynamic potentials and the hydrodynamic constitutive relations in the corresponding fluid on the boundary. We observe novel spin induced transport in these holographic models: a dynamical version of the Barnett effect where vorticity generates a spin current and anomalous vortical transport transverse to a vector-like spin source.

A classical theory of a spinning particle with charge and dipole moment in an electromagnetic field is obtained by working symmetrically with respect to retarded and advanced fields, and with respect to the ingoing and outgoing fields. The equations are in a simpler form than those of Bhabha and Corben or those of Bhabha, and involve fewer constants. On the assumption that the spin angular momentum tensor θμν satisfies the equation θ2 ≡ θμν θμν = constant, the value of the dipole moment Zμν is chosen to be Cθμν, where C is a constant. The theory is generalized to the case of several particles with charge and dipole moment. By using a suitable Hamiltonian equation, the classical equations of motion, obtained on the assumption that θ is a constant, are put into Hamiltonian form by means of the ‘Wentzel field’ and the λ-limiting process. The passage to the quantum theory is effected by the usual rules of quantization. The theory is extended to the case of particles with charge and dipole moment in the generalized wave field by defining the Wentzel potential in terms of the generalized relativistic δ-function.

This chapter covers the equations governing the evolution of particle distribution and relates the macroscopic thermodynamical quantities to the distribution function. The motion of N particles is governed by 6N equations of motion of first order in time, written in either Hamiltonian form or in terms of Poisson brackets. Thus, as this chapter shows, as the number of particles grows it becomes necessary to resort to a statistical description. The chapter first introduces the Liouville equation, which states the conservation of the probability density, before turning to the Boltzmann–Vlasov equation. Finally, it discusses the Jeans equations, which are the equations obtained by taking various averages over velocities.

Abstract We investigate the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ -like flows for non-linear electrodynamic theories in D(=2n)-dimensional spacetime. Our analysis is restricted to the deformation problem of the classical free action by employing the proposed $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ operator from a simple integration technique. We show that this flow equation is compatible with $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformation of a scalar field theory in D = 2 and of a non-linear Born-Infeld type theory in D = 4 dimensions. However, our computation discloses that this kind of $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ flow in higher dimensions is essentially different from deformation that has been derived from the AdS/CFT interpretations. Indeed, the gravity that may be exist as a holographic dual theory of this kind of effective Born-Infeld action is not necessarily an AdS space. As an illustrative investigation in D = 4, we shall also show that our construction for the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ operator preserves the original SL(2, ℝ) symmetry of a non-supersymmetric Born-Infeld theory, as well as $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 supersymmetric model. It is shown that the corresponding SL(2, ℝ) invariant action fixes the relationship between the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ operator and quadratic form of the energy-momentum tensor in D = 4.

ABSTRACTIt is suggested, on heuristic grounds, that the energy-momentum tensor of a material field with non-zero spin and non-zero rest-mass should be non-symmetric. The usual relationship between energy-momentum tensor and gravitational potential then implies that the latter should also be a non-symmetric tensor. This suggestion has nothing to do with unified field theory; it is concerned with the pure gravitational field.A theory of gravitation based on a non-symmetric potential is developed. Field equations are derived, and a study is made of Rosenfeld identities, Bianchi identities, angular momentum and the equations of motion of test particles. These latter equations represent the geodesics of a Riemannian space whose contravariant metric tensor is gij–, in agreement with a result of Lichnerowicz(9) on the bicharacteristics of the Einstein–Schrödinger field equations.

We find the relationship between the Jackiw-Teitelboim model of two-dimensional gravity and the SL (2, R) induced gravity. These are shown to be related to a two-dimensional gauge theory obtained by dimensionally reducing the Chern-Simons action of the 2+1 dimensional gravity. We present an explicit solution to the equations of motion of the auxiliary field of the Jackiw-Teitelboim model in the light-cone gauge. A renormalization of the cosmological constant is also given.

Fall Arrest

Sports and mountaineering activities are becoming more and more popular. Equipment constructors seek to develop products and devices that are easy to use and that take into account all safety recommendations. PETZL and INSA have collaborated to develop a model for the simulation of displacements and efforts involved during the fall of a climber in the “safety chain”. The model is based on the classical equations of motion, in which climber and belayer are considered as rigid masses, while the rope is considered as a series of non-linear stiffness passing through several devices as brakes and runners. The main goal is to predict the forces in the rope and on the return anchor at the first rebound of the fall. Experiments were first performed in order to observe and determine the dynamic characteristics of the rope, and then to validate results stemming from simulations. Several fall configurations are simulated, and the model performs satisfactorily. It also provides a close approximation of the phenomena observed experimentally. The model enables the assessment of the existing equipments and the improved design of the future one.
