We develop an operator description, much like thermofield dynamics, for quantum field theories on a real time path with an arbitrary parameter $\sigma\,(0\leq\sigma\leq\beta)$. We point out new features which arise when $\sigma\neq…
The Coulomb gas representation of expectation values in SU(2) conformal field theory developed by Dotsenko is extended to the SL(2,R) WZW model and applied to bosonic string theory on AdS3 and to Type II superstrings on AdS3 x N. The…
We propose a new ``boundary'' term in free bosonic string field theory. Here, the term ``boundary'' refers to a contribution introduced to restore the cyclicity broken by the insertion of a stringy step-function operator, although it is not…
In this paper we thermalize the type II superstrings in the GS formulation by applying the TFD formalism. The thermal boundary conditions on the thermal Hilbert space are obtained from the BPS $D$-brane boundary conditions at zero…
A relevant part of the quantum algebra of observables for the closed bosonic strings moving in 1+3-dimensional Minkowski space is presented in the form of generating relations involving still one, as yet undetermined, real free parameter.
In this paper we study some aspects of thermodynamic formalism, more specifically topological pressure and, as a consequence, topological entropy for piecewise smooth vector fields, using topological conjugation with shift maps and the…
Euler hydrodynamics of perfect fluids can be viewed as an effective bosonic field theory. In cases when the underlying microscopic system involves Dirac fermions, the quantum anomalies should be properly described. In 1+1 dimensions the…
It is shown that a transition from a multidimensional cosmological model with one internal space of the dimension d_1 to the effective tree-level bosonic string corresponds to an infinite number of the internal dimensions: d_1 -> infinity.
The one-dimensional transverse field Ising model is solved by continuous unitary transformations in the high-field limit. A high accuracy is reached due to the closure of the relevant algebra of operators which we call string operators. The…
We investigate whether the symmetry transformations of a bosonic string are connected by T-duality. We start with a standard closed string theory. We continue with a modified open string theory, modified to preserve the symmetry…
We discuss thermodynamic properties of dark energy using the formalism of field theory at finite temperature. In particular, we apply our formalism to a purely kinetic type of k-essence. We show quite generally that the entropy associated…
We compute Araki's relative entropy associated to a bounded interval $I=(a,b)$ between a thermal state and a coherent excitation of itself in the bosonic U(1)-current model, namely the (derivative of the) chiral boson. For this purpose we…
An operator formalism for bosonic $\beta-\gamma$ systems on arbitrary algebraic curves is introduced. The classical degrees of freedom are identified and their commutation relations are postulated. The explicit realization of the algebra…
We revisit the construction of the tensionless limit of closed bosonic string theory in the covariant formulation in the light of Galilean conformal symmetry that rises as the residual gauge symmetry on the tensionless worldsheet. We relate…
Subject of this thesis is the study of a closed bosonic string: the treatment will follow an approach alternative with respect to the traditional one and stems from a research line pursued in by Eguchi. A description of the dynamics using…
The effect of world-sheet boundaries on the temperature-dependence of bosonic string theory is studied to first order in string perturbation theory. The high- temperature behaviour of a theory with Dirichlet boundary conditions has features…
In this letter we propose a new ansatz for the thermal string in the TFD formulation. From it, we derive the thermal vacuum for the closed bosonic string and calculate the thermal partition function in the blackhole $AdS$ background in the…
Consider a $d$-dimensional antiferromagnet with a quantum disordered ground state and a gap to bosonic excitations with non-zero spin. In a finite external magnetic field, this antiferromagnet will undergo a phase transition to a ground…
We present numerical results demonstrating the possibility of thermalization of single-particle observables in a one-dimensional integrable system (a quasicondensate of ultra-cold, weakly-interacting bosonic atoms being studied as a…
We investigate the dynamics of a 2-level atom (or spin-1/2) coupled to a mass-less bosonic field at positive temperature. We prove that, at small coupling, the combined quantum system approaches thermal equilibrium. Moreover we establish…
