摘要 本文研究了二维量子场论中局域场关联函数的演化。 \lambda T\overline{T} $$ λT 不 ¯ 变形,适当地规则化。我们表明,这可以被看作是在每个领域的演变,在每个无穷小的步骤与一个Dirac字符串连接。变形然后作为整个算子代数的导数,满足莱布尼茨规则。我们推导出一个明确的方程,它允许UV发散的分析,这可能被吸收到一个非本地的场重整化给相关函数是UV有限的所有订单,满足(变形)运营商的产品扩展和Callan-Symanzik方程。我们在变形的CFT的情况下解决了这个问题,表明傅立叶变换的重整化两点函数表现为k 2 +2 k2,其中是它们的IR共形维数。我们详细讨论变形Noether电流,包括能量动量张量,并表明,虽然他们也成为非本地的,适当改进时,他们仍然是有限的,保守的,并满足预期的沃德身份。最后,我们讨论了如何等效的 $$ T\overline{T} $$ 不 不 ¯ 变形到状态依赖的坐标变换出现在该图中。
Abstract We study the evolution of correlation functions of local fields in a two-dimensional quantum field theory under the $$ \lambda T\overline{T} $$ λT T ¯ deformation, suitably regularized. We show that this may be viewed in terms of the evolution of each field, with a Dirac-like string being attached at each infinitesimal step. The deformation then acts as a derivation on the whole operator algebra, satisfying the Leibniz rule. We derive an explicit equation which allows for the analysis of UV divergences, which may be absorbed into a non-local field renormalization to give correlation functions which are UV finite to all orders, satisfying a (deformed) operator product expansion and a Callan-Symanzik equation. We solve this in the case of a deformed CFT, showing that the Fourier-transformed renormalized two-point functions behave as k 2∆+2λk2, where ∆ is their IR conformal dimension. We discuss in detail deformed Noether currents, including the energy-momentum tensor, and show that, although they also become non-local, when suitably improved they remain finite, conserved and satisfy the expected Ward identities. Finally, we discuss how the equivalence of the $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ deformation to a state-dependent coordinate transformation emerges in this picture.
