We introduce and study the four-dimensional analogue of a mass generation mechanism for non-Abelian gauge fields suggested in the paper, Phys. Lett. B403, 297 (1997), in the case of three-dimensional space–time. The construction of the corresponding quantized theory is based on the fact that some nonlocal actions may generate local expressions for Green functions. An example of such a theory is the ordinary Yang–Mills field where the contribution of the Faddeev–Popov determinant to the Green functions can be made local by introducing additional ghost fields. We show that the quantized Hamiltonian for our theory unitarily acts in a Hilbert space of states and prove that the theory is renormalizable to all orders of perturbation theory. One-loop coupling constant and mass renormalizations are also calculated.

Some perturbative aspects of Chern–Simons theories are analyzed in a geometric-regularization framework. In particular, we show that the independence from the gauge condition of the regularized theory, which insures its global meaning, does impose a new constraint on the parameters of the regularization. The condition turns out to be the one that arises in pure or topologically massive Yang–Mills theories in three-dimensional space–times. One-loop calculations show the existence of nonvanishing finite renormalizations of gauge fields and coupling constant which preserve the topological meaning of Chern–Simons theory. The existence of a (finite) gauge-field renormalization at one-loop level is compensated by the renormalization of gauge transformations in such a way that the one-loop effective action remains gauge-invariant with respect to renormalized gauge transformations. The independence of both renormalizations from the space–time volume indicates the topological nature of the theory.

The canonical formulation of general relativity (GR) is based on decomposition space–time manifold M into R × Σ , where R represents the time, and Ksi is the three-dimensional space-like surface. This decomposition has to preserve the invariance of GR, invariance under general coordinates, and local Lorentz transformations. These symmetries are associated with conserved currents that are coupled to gravity. These symmetries are studied on a three dimensional space-like hypersurface Σ embedded in a four-dimensional space–time manifold. This implies continuous symmetries and conserved currents by Noether’s theorem on that surface. We construct a three-form E i ∧ D A i (D represents covariant exterior derivative) in the phase space ( E i a , A a i ) on the surface Σ , and derive an equation of continuity on that surface, and search for canonical relations and a Lagrangian that correspond to the same equation of continuity according to the canonical field theory. We find that Σ i 0 a is a conjugate momentum of A a i and Σ i a b F a b i is its energy density. We show that there is conserved spin current that couples to A i , and show that we have to include the term F μ ν i F μ ν i in GR. Lagrangian, where F i = D A i , and A i is complex S O ( 3 ) connection. The term F μ ν i F μ ν i includes one variable, A i , similar to Yang–Mills gauge theory. Finally we couple the connection A i to a left-handed spinor field ψ , and find the corresponding beta function.

This work is related to the asymptotic approach in the renormalization theory and its problems. As the main example, the Yang-Mills theory in four-dimensional space-time is considered. It has been shown earlier [16] that using the asymptotic of the bare coupling constant one can find an expression for the renormalized effective action, however, this formula has problems (divergence ln " and infinite series). This work shows the relation of these values and provides an answer for the renormalized effective action.

By using a new Hamiltonian of interaction we have calculated the interaction energy for two-dimensional and three-dimensional lattices. We present also, approximate analytical formulae and the analytical formulae for the constant of the elastic force. The obtained results show that in the three-dimensional space, the two-dimensional lattice has the lattice constant and the cohesive energy which are smaller than that of the three-dimensional lattice. For appropriate values of the coupling constants, the two-dimensional lattice in a two-dimensional space has both the lattice constant and the cohesive energy, larger than that of the two-dimensional lattice in a three-dimensional space; this means that if there is a two-dimensional space in the Universe, this should be thinner than the three-dimensional space, while the interaction forces should be stronger. On the other hand, if the coupling constant in the two-dimensional lattice in the two-dimensional space is close to zero, the cohesive energy should be comparable with the cohesive energy from three-dimensional space but this two-dimensional space does not emit but absorbs radiation.
