Dynamical Lorentz symmetry breaking in a tensor bumblebee model

Abstract: In this paper, we formulate a theory of the second-rank antisymmetric (pseudo)tensor field minimally coupled to a spinor, calculate the one-loop effective potential of the (pseudo)tensor field, and, explicitly, demonstrate that it is positively defined and possesses a continuous set of minima, both for tensor and pseudotensor cases. Therefore, our model turns out to display the dynamical Lorentz symmetry breaking.We also argue that, contrarily to the derivative coupling we use here, derivative-free couplings o… Show more

“…Moreover, we find that the singularity occurs for the effective metrics (2.21)-(2.22) at α = ± 1 2 . As α = 1 2 , one can find the null geodesic condition in the effective metric (2.21) becomes 24) which implies that the dispersion relation for arbitrary photon does not depend on its fourvelocity componentsṙ andθ at the arbitrary spacetime point. Similarly, as α = − 1 2 , the dispersion relation for arbitrary photon in the effective metric (2.22) does not depend on its four-velocity componentsṫ andφ at arbitrary position.…”

“…There exist a class of models, which can be indicated as the related to the Einstein-aether theory. As an example of such model, we would like to consider the so-called bumblebee model (see, e.g., [27][28][29][30]). Such a model differs from the Einstein-aether theory by one term only: it is the term λ(g ik B i B k ± b 2 ) 2 introduced into the Lagrangian instead of the term λ(g ik U i U k − 1).…”

“…In 1989, Kostelecký and Samuel [2] proposed the bumblebee gravity theory as the simplest model for studying the spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB), in which a bumblebee field with a vacuum expectation value leads to spontaneous breaks in Lorentz symmetry. The interest towards in bumblebee gravity theory has increased over the years [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. In particular, some new exact solutions have been recently found.…”
