A test for emergent dynamics
A generalization of a-maximization is proposed that maximizes a subject to
inequalities rather than equalities. The implication of this conjecture is that
in the absence of emergent symmetries, there is a maximum R-charge for fields
appearing in the path integral. This maximum R-charge leads to a novel way of
detecting emergent Abelian symmetries and non-Abelian gauge symmetries.Comment: 16 page
Roger Parsons—Olin Palladium Award Medalist
The Olin Palladium Medal of this Society has such a distinguished set of former awardees that I suspect the person who has been asked to introduce each of the medal winners has probably felt as superfluous as I do today.
Roger Parsons has played so prominent a role in the development of fundamental electrochemistry in the last thirty years that his name and his ideas constantly pop up in discussions among electrochemists in Moscow and Buenos Aires, Delhi and Paris, College Station and Pasadena
