Physical states for QFT on curved space-times

  • On general curved space-times, no notion of vacuum state.
  • Substitute for vacuum state: Hadamard states, characterized

by the singularity structure of their two-point functions [Kay,

Wald, etc. ’70-’80];

  • Most important property: quantum stress-energy tensor can

be renormalized w.r.t. a Hadamard state;

  • Since [Radzikowski ’96], Hadamard condition formulated in

terms of wave front set.

Overview

  • We reconsider the construction of Hadamard states on

space-times with metric well-behaved at spatial infinity;

  • Working on a fixed Cauchy surface, we can use rather

standard pseudo-di↵erential analysis.

  • We construct a large class of Hadamard states with DO

two-point functions, in particular all pure Hadamard states.

  • We give a new construction of Hadamard states on general

globally hyperbolic space-times.

Plan Introduction Quasi-free Hadamard states Model Klein-Gordon equation General space-times

Outlook

  • Construction of Hadamard states on arbitrary

globally-hyperbolic space-times.

  • Transparent results if metric components well-behaved at

spatial infinity — explicit description of pure quasi-free states $ useful to investigate their local properties;

  • ambiguity in choosing a state encoded in a group of special

Bogoliubov transformations.

  • In progress:
  • replace space-like Cauchy surface by characteristic one;
  • generalize to other spins — spin-1 especially interesting.
  • Challenge:
  • implemention in semi-classical Einstein/Maxwell equations.
