    Spontaneous Breakdown of Conformal Symmetry

    Let us consider a scalar field φ(x) in a Minkowski space. Suppose that along with a conformally in variant vacuum % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+- % fea...

    Approximate Methods of Calculating Critical Indices

    Conformal symmetry is one of the principles underlying the modern phase transition theory. In this chapter we solve the problem of an approximate computation of critical indices by means of conformal theory me...

    Conformal Invariance in Gauge Theories

    Let A μ be a gauge field in a 4-dimensional Euclidean space with values in the algebra of the gauge group G. Let us consider the tensor field 1.1

    Global Conformal Symmetry and Hilbert Space

    This chapter has two goals: 1. To obtain general expressions for conformally invariant Wightman functions and Green functions; 2. To study the structure of a Hilbert space of conformally invariant field theory.

    Ward Identities

    Let φ(x) be a scalar field in Minkowski space. Consider its variations under the action of a group G, which is meant to represent either the space-time transformations group (Poincaré or conformal) or the interna...

    Goals and Perspectives

    The hypothesis that the fundamental laws in Nature have the scale and conformal symmetries has been very attractive to many physicists. The idea is interesting by the fact that the conformal symmetry is the hi...

    Euclidean Formulation of the Conformal Theory

    A conformal group of Euclidean space is locally isomorphic to the SO(D + 1, l) group. All its irreducible representations are classified by the values of Casimir operators, which have the same formal expressions ...
