Conserved Currents

AbstractA method is presented whereby all locally defined conserved currents of the Klein-Gordon field are found. The mathematical background to the method includes a generalization of the Poincaré lemma of the calculus of exterior differential forms. It is found that the only conserved currents are essentially a countably infinite set of functions, bilinear in the field, together with a single current in the case where the mass is zero. The usual energy-momentum tensor is included amongst these functions. The method does not depend on the use of any canonical formulation of the field theory.

Conserved Currents

As the space of solutions of the first-order Hamiltonian field theory has a presymplectic structure, we describe a class of conserved charges associated with the momentum map, determined by a symmetry group of transformations. A gauge theory is dealt with by using a symplectic regularization based on an application of Gotay’s coisotropic embedding theorem. An analysis of electrodynamics and of the Klein–Gordon theory illustrate the main results of the theory as well as the emergence of the energy–momentum tensor algebra of conserved currents.

Abstract In this article we probe the proposed holographic duality between $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformed two dimensional conformal field theory and the gravity theory of AdS3 with a Dirichlet cutoff by computing correlators of energy-momentum tensor. We focus on the large central charge sector of the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ CFT in a Euclidean plane and a sphere, and compute the correlators of energy-momentum tensor using an operator identity promoted from the classical trace relation. The result agrees with a computation of classical pure gravity in Euclidean AdS3 with the corresponding cutoff surface, given a holographic dictionary which identifies gravity parameters with $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ CFT parameters.

As a continuation of solving the equations governing the perturbation of the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson- Walker (FLRW) space-time in Newman-Penrose formalism, the behaviour of the massive Klein-Gordon (KG) field coupled to the FLRW has been investigated. The Equation of Motion has been written and solved separately for radial and temporal parts. The former solution has come to be in terms of the Gegenbauer polynomials and spherical harmonics and the latter being in the WKB approximation. The particle current, energy momentum tensor and potential have also been obtained.

We show that the Painlevé test is useful not only for probing (non)integrability but also for finding the values of spins of conserved currents (W currents) in Toda field theories (TFT’s). In the case of TFT’s based on simple Lie algebras the locations of resonances are shown to give precisely the spins of conserved W currents. We apply this test to TFT’s based strictly on hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras and show that there exist no resonance other than that at n = 2, which corresponds to the energy-momentum tensor, indicating their nonintegrability. We also check by direct calculation that there are no spin-3 or -4 conserved currents for all the hyperbolic TFT’s in agreement with the result of our Painlevé analysis.

Conserved Currents

We consider the relation between scale invariance and conformal invariance. In our analysis the variation of the metric is taken into account. By imposing some conditions on the trace of the energy–momentum tensor and on the variation of the action, we find that the scale dimensions of the fields are not affected. We also obtain the conserved currents. We find that the conditions for conformal invariance are stronger than for scale invariance.
