The study of effective potential for the scalar Lee-Wick pseudo-electrodynamics in one-loop is presented in this letter. The planar and non-local Lee-Wick pseudo-electrodynamics is so coupled to a complex scalar field sector in 1+2…
I give a brief review of the Polyakov Loops Model and tests thereof. I concentrate especially on how in a pure SU(N) gauge theory, Polyakov loops with Z(N) charges two and three affect the effective potential for charge-one loops.
We discuss the imaginary-time formalism for field theories in thermal equilibrium in uniformly accelerating frames. We show that under a Wick rotation of Minkowski spacetime, the Rindler event horizon shrinks to a point in a two-dimensional…
