Quasifree states of a linear Klein-Gordon quantum field on globally hyperbolic spacetime manifolds are considered. After a short mathematical review techniques from the theory of pseudodifferential operators and wavefront sets on manifolds are used to develop a criterion for a state to be an Hadamard state. It is proven that ground- and KMS-states on certain static spacetimes and adiabatic vacuum states on Robertson-Walker spaces are Hadamard states. A counterexample is given which shows that the idea of instantaneous positive energy states w.r.t. a Cauchy surface does in general not yield physical states. Finally, the problem of constructing Hadamard states on arbitrary curved spacetimes is solved in principle.

Abstract We perform a careful study of the infrared sector of massless non-abelian gauge theories in four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime using the covariant phase space formalism, taking into account the boundary contributions arising from the gauge sector of the theory. Upon quantization, we show that the boundary contributions lead to an infinite degeneracy of the vacua. The Hilbert space of the vacuum sector is not only shown to be remarkably simple, but also universal. We derive a Ward identity that relates the n-point amplitude between two generic in- and out-vacuum states to the one computed in standard QFT. In addition, we demonstrate that the familiar single soft gluon theorem and multiple consecutive soft gluon theorem are consequences of the Ward identity.

AbstractHere we report an epoch-making simple fabrication for wrinkle formation. The present wrinkle formation process is a solution for controlling the area, shape and direction of wrinkle area by forming wrinkles on the liquid state polydimethylsiloxane directly exposed to sputtered metal particles in the low vacuum plasma chamber in various vacuum states and deposition conditions. Also the process allows us to make extremely flexible metal thin film electrode with approved adhesion. These bring us possibilities of actual electrical and biological applications.

Several models of [Formula: see text] gravity have been proposed in order to address the dark side problem in cosmology. However, these models should be constrained also at ultraviolet scales in order to achieve some correct fundamental interpretation. Here, we analyze this possibility comparing quantum vacuum states in given [Formula: see text] cosmological backgrounds. Specifically, we compare the Bogolubov transformations associated to different vacuum states for some [Formula: see text] models. The procedure consists in fixing the [Formula: see text] free parameters by requiring that the Bogolubov coefficients can be correspondingly minimized to be in agreement with both high redshift observations and quantum field theory predictions. In such a way, the particle production is related to the value of the Hubble parameter and then to the given [Formula: see text] model. The approach is developed in both metric and Palatini formalism.
