On the covariant description of spontaneously broken symmetry in general field theory

Reducible fields A(x) with degenerate vacuum which allow the unitary- symmetry transformation U/sup -1/(c)A(x)U(c)=A(x)+c are analysed. The mathematical properties of the 'charge integral' related to the conserved current of this spontaneously broken symmetry are described. The structure o...

description Reducible fields A(x) with degenerate vacuum which allow the unitary- symmetry transformation U/sup -1/(c)A(x)U(c)=A(x)+c are analysed. The mathematical properties of the 'charge integral' related to the conserved current of this spontaneously broken symmetry are described. The structure of the S-matrix theory is discussed in such a generalized field theory as a guide-line for the treatment of more complex examples of spontaneously broken symmetries. (42 refs).
