Alternative Frenkel liquid Lagrangian
Based on the Caldirola-Canai approach, we endeavor to propose a dissipative scalar field theory in Minkowski space-time. We present its free particle solutions for complex $ω^μ$ components, and we find three profiles of dispersion relations, two of them support gapped momentum states. We also present an alternative view of this model, where dissipation acts as a geometric effect, and an effective negative scalar curvature space-time emerges. Finally, we illustrate how the present model could be adapted to describe shear waves in Frenkel liquids.
