Lévy differential operators and Gauge invariant equations for Dirac and Higgs fields

We study the Lévy infinite-dimensional differential operators (differential operators defined by the analogy with the Lévy Laplacian) and their relationship to the Yang–Mills equations. We consider the parallel transport on the space of curves as an infinite-dimensional analogue of chiral fields and show that it is a solution to the system of differential equations if and only if the associated connection is a solution to the Yang–Mills equations. This system is an analogue of the equations of motion of chiral fields and contains the Lévy divergence. The systems of infinite-dimensional equations containing Lévy differential operators, that are equivalent to the Yang–Mills–Higgs equations and the Yang–Mills–Dirac equations (the equations of quantum chromodynamics), are obtained. The equivalence of two ways to define Lévy differential operators is shown.

Stochastic Lévy differential operators and Yang–Mills equations

The relationship between the Yang–Mills equations and the stochastic analogue of Lévy differential operators is studied. The value of the stochastic Lévy–Laplacian is found by means of Cèsaro averaging of directional derivatives on the stochastic parallel transport. It is shown that the Yang–Mills equations and the Lévy–Laplace equation for such Laplacian are not equivalent in contrast to the deterministic case. An equation equivalent to the Yang–Mills equations is obtained. The equation contains the Lévy divergence. It is proved that the Yang–Mills action functional can be represented as an infinite-dimensional analogue of the Direchlet functional of a chiral field. This analogue is also derived using Cèsaro averaging.

HIERARCHY OF LÉVY–LAPLACIANS AND QUANTUM STOCHASTIC PROCESSES

We consider a family of infinite dimensional Laplace operators which contains the classical Lévy–Laplacian. We prove a representation of these operators as a quadratic functions of quantum stochastic processes. Particularly, for the classical Lévy–Laplacian, the following formula is proved: ΔL = lim ε→0 ∫‖s-t‖<ε bsbtdsdt, where bt is the annihilation process.

THE EXOTIC (HIGHER ORDER LÉVY) LAPLACIANS GENERATE THE MARKOV PROCESSES GIVEN BY DISTRIBUTION DERIVATIVES OF WHITE NOISE

We introduce, for each a ∈ ℝ+, the Brownian motion associated to the distribution derivative of order a of white noise. We prove that the generator of this Markov process is the exotic Laplacian of order 2a, given by the Cesàro mean of order 2a of the second derivatives along the elements of an orthonormal basis of a suitable Hilbert space (the Cesàro space of order 2a). In particular, for a = 1/2 one finds the usual Lévy Laplacian, but also in this case the connection with the 1/2-derivative of white noise is new. The main technical tool, used to achieve these goals, is a generalization of a result due to Accardi and Smolyanov5 extending the well-known Cesàro theorem to higher order arithmetic means. These and other estimates allow to prove existence of the heat semi-group associated to any exotic Laplacian of order ≥ 1/2 and to give its explicit expression in terms of infinite dimensional Fourier transform.
