    Stochastic quantization and holographic Wilsonian renormalization group

    Full text link
    We study relation between stochastic quantization and holographic Wilsonian renormalization group flow. Considering stochastic quantization of the boundary on-shell actions with the Dirichlet boundary condition for certain AdSAdS bulk gravity theories, we find that the radial flows of double trace deformations in the boundary effective actions are completely captured by stochastic time evolution with identification of the AdSAdS radial coordinate `rr' with the stochastic time 'tt' as r=tr=t. More precisely, we investigate Langevin dynamics and find an exact relation between radial flow of the double trace couplings and 2-point correlation functions in stochastic quantization. We also show that the radial evolution of double trace deformations in the boundary effective action and the stochastic time evolution of the Fokker-Planck action are the same. We demonstrate this relation with a couple of examples: (minimally coupled)massless scalar fields in AdS2AdS_2 and U(1) vector fields in AdS4AdS_4.Comment: 1+30 pages, a new subsection is added, references are adde

    Quantizing Yang-Mills Theory: From Parisi-Wu Stochastic Quantization to a Global Path Integral

    Full text link
    Based on a generalization of the stochastic quantization scheme we recently proposed a generalized, globally defined Faddeev-Popov path integral density for the quantization of Yang-Mills theory. In this talk first our approach on the whole space of gauge potentials is shortly reviewed; in the following we discuss the corresponding global path integral on the gauge orbit space relating it to the original Parisi-Wu stochastic quantization scheme.Comment: 4 pages, Latex, uses espcrc2.sty; talk by Helmuth Huffel at the Third Meeting on Constrained Dynamics and Quantum Gravity, Villasimius, Sardinia, Italy, Sept. 13-17, 199

    Scale-dependent stochastic quantization

    Full text link
    Based on the wavelet-defined multiscale random noise proposed in [Doklady Physics 2003, v.48, 478], a multiscale version of the stochastic quantization procedure is considered. A new type of the commutation relations emerging from the multiscale decomposition of the operator-valued fields is derivedComment: Talk at FFP6 International Conference, Udine, Italy, Sep 2004.
