In this paper we give explicit construction of massive N=1 supermultiplets in flat d=4 Minkowski space-time. We work in a component on-shell formalism based on gauge invariant description of massive integer and half-integer spin particles where massive supermultiplets are constructed out of appropriate set of massless ones.
In this paper we construct massive supermultiplets out of appropriate set of massless ones in the same way as massive spin s particle could be constructed out of massless spin s,s-1,... ones leading to gauge invariant description of massive particle. Mainly we consider massive spin 3/2 supermultiplets in a flat d=4 Minkowski space both without central charge for N=1,2,3 as well as with central charge for N=2,4. Besides, we give two examples of massive N=1 supermultiplets with spin 3/2 and 2 in AdS_4 space.
In this paper we use a constructive approach based on gauge invariant description of massive high spin particles for investigation of possible interactions of massive spin 2 particle. We work with general case of massive spin 2 particle living in constant curvature $(A)dS_d$ background, which allows us carefully consider all flat space, massless or partially massless limits. In the linear approximation (cubic terms with no more than two derivatives in the Lagrangians and linear terms with no more than one derivative in gauge transformations) we investigate possible self-interaction, interaction with matter (i.e. spin 0, 1 and 1/2 particles) and interaction with gravity.
In this note we construct a dual formulation of gravity where the main dynamical object is affine connection. We start with the well known first order Palatini formulation but in (Anti) de Sitter space instead of flat Minkowski space as a background. The final result obtained by solving equations for the metric is the Lagrangian written by Eddington in his book in 1924. Also there is an interesting connection with attempts to construct gravitational analog of Born-Infeld electrodynamics.
In this paper we consider a possibility to construct dual formulation of gravity where the main dynamical field is the Lorentz connection ω_μ^{ab} and not that of tetrad e_μ^a or metric g_μν. Our approach is based on the usual dualization procedure which uses first order parent Lagrangians but in (Anti) de Sitter space and not in the flat Minkowski one. It turns out that in d=3 dimensions such dual formulation is related with the so called exotic parity-violating interactions for massless spin-2 particles.
In this paper we investigate dual formulations for massive tensor fields. Usual procedure for construction of such dual formulations based on the use of first order parent Lagrangians in many cases turns out to be ambiguous. We propose to solve such ambiguity by using gauge invariant description of massive fields which works both in Minkowski space as well as (Anti) de Sitter spaces. We illustrate our method by two concrete examples: spin-2 "tetrad" field h_{μa}, the dual field being "Lorentz connection" ω_{μ,ab} and "Riemann" tensor R_{μν,ab} with the dual Σ_{μν,abc}.
In this paper we extend our recent results (hep-th/0304067) on the first order formulation for the massless mixed symmetry tensor fields to the case of massive fields both in Minkowski as well as in (Anti) de Sitter spaces (including all possible massless and partially massless limits). Main physical results are essentially the same as in hep-th/0211233.
In this paper we give explicit first order Lagrangian formulation for mixed symmetry tensor fields Φ_{[μν],α}, T_{[μνα],β} and R_{[μν],[αβ]}. We show that such Lagrangians could be written in a very suggestive form similar to the well known tetrad formalism in gravity. Such description could simplify the investigations of possible interactions for these fields. Some examples of interactions are given.
In this paper we give explicit gauge invariant Lagrangian formulation for massive theories based on mixed symmetry tensors Φ_{[μν],α}, T_{[μνα],β} and R_{[μν],[αβ]} both in Minkowski as well as in (Anti) de Sitter spaces. In particular, we study all possible massless and partially massless limits for such theories in (A)dS.
In this paper we construct explicit Lagrangian formulation for the massive spin-2 supermultiplets with N = k supersymmetries k = 1,2,3,4. Such multiplets contain 2k particles with spin-3/2, so there must exist N = 2k local supersymmetries in the full nonlinear theories spontaneously broken so that only N = k global supersymmetries remain unbroken. In this paper we unhide these hidden supersymmetries by using gauge invariant formulation for massive high spin particles. Such formulation, operating with the right set of physical degrees of freedom from the very beginning and having non-singular massless limit, turns out to be very well suited for construction of massive supermultiplets from the well known massless ones. For all four cases considered we have managed to show that the massless limit of the supertransformations for N = k massive supermultiplet could be uplifted to N = 2k supersymmetry. This, in turn, allows one to investigate which extended supergravity models such massive multiplets could arise from. Our results show a clear connection of possible models with the five-dimensional extended supergravities.
In this Letter we consider the problem of partial masslessness and unitarity in (A)dS using gauge invariant description of massive high spin particles. We show that for S = 2 and S = 3 cases such formalism allows one correctly reproduce all known results. Then we construct a gauge invariant formulation for massive particles of arbitrary integer spin s in arbitrary space-time dimension d. For d = 4 our results confirm the conjecture made recently by Deser and Waldron.
We suggest the new definition of the magnetization. For the two - dimensional Ising model with the free boundary conditions we calculate any derivative of this magnetization for zero magnetic field.
The correlation functions are calculated for the three - dimensional Z_2 electrodynamics for the particular values of the ineraction energies and for the free boundary conditions.
The main object of the proposed theory is not a pseudometric, but a symmetric affine connection on the Minkowski space. The coefficients of this connection have one upper and two lower indices. These coefficients are symmetric with respect to the permutation of the lower indices. We identify the convolution of the connection coefficients with the vector - potential of the electromagnetic field. Then the gravity is the Lorentz force of this electromagnetic field.
The correlation functions are calculated for the two dimensional Ising model with free boundary conditions and the two dimensional Ising model with periodic boundary conditions.
The Onsager formula for the free energy of the two dimensional Ising model with periodic boundary conditions is proved.
U(1) gauge theory with the Villain action on a cubic lattice approximation of three- and four-dimensional torus is considered. The naturally chosen correlation functions converge to the correlation functions of the R-gauge electrodynamics on three- and four-dimensional torus as the lattice spacing approaches zero only for the special scaling. This special scaling depends on a choice of a correlation function system. Another scalings give the degenerate continuum limits. The Wilson criterion for the confinement is ambiguous. The asymptotics of the smeared Wilson loop integral for the large loop perimeters is defined by the density of the loop smearing over a torus which is transversal to the loop plane. When the initial torus radius tends to infinity the correlation functions converge to the correlation functions of the R-gauge Euclidean electrodynamics.
In this work we construct a gauge invariant description of free massive particle with an arbitrary integer spin. Such description allows one to investigate the problem of consistent interactions for massive high spin particles using the requirement that the whole interaction Lagrangian must be gauge invariant. As a first example of such approach, we consider the case of electromagnetic interaction of massive spin-2 particle: a linear approximation in a case of the arbitrary field and a full theory for the homogeneous electromagnetic field in the space-time of any dimensionality.
