A gauge invariant Debye mass and the complex heavy-quark potential

Yannis Burnier

Following the original idea of Debye, we define and extract a gauge-invariant screening mass from the complex static in-medium heavy-quark potential V-Q (Q) over bar, recently obtained from lattice QCD. To this end we derive a formula using concepts from b ...

Weyl and Ricci gauging from the coset construction

Alexander Monin, Georgios Karananas

In this paper we demonstrate how, using the coset construction, a theory can be systematically made Weyl invariant by gauging the scale symmetry. We show that an analog of the inverse Higgs constraint allows the elimination of the Weyl vector (gauge) field ...

A comment on the construction of the maximal globally hyperbolic Cauchy development

Willie Wai Yeung Wong

Under mild assumptions, we remove all traces of the axiom of choice from the construction of the maximal globally hyperbolic Cauchy development in general relativity. The construction relies on the notion of direct union manifolds, which we review. The con ...

Full-field drift Hamiltonian particle orbits in axisymmetric tokamak geometry

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper

A Hamiltonian/Lagrangian theory to describe guiding center orbit drift motion that is canonical in Boozer magnetic coordinates is developed to include full electrostatic and electromagnetic perturbed fields in axisymmetric tokamak geometry. Furthermore, th ...

A New Lagrangian Dynamic Reduction In Field Theory

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

For symmetric classical field theories on principal bundles there are two methods of symmetry reduction: covariant and dynamic. Assume that the classical field theory is given by a symmetric covariant Lagrangian density defined on the first jet bundle of a ...

Symmetry Reduced Dynamics of Charged Molecular Strands

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

The equations of motion are derived for the dynamical folding of charged molecular strands (such as DNA) modeled as flexible continuous filamentary distributions of interacting rigid charge conformations. The new feature is that these equations are nonloca ...
