It is shown that a unitary theory of interacting phonons with orthogonal polarization vectors can be described by a pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. The three orthogonal modes: the two transverse and one longitudinal mode for each value of the momentum must be dotted into the SU(2) generators for interactions to occur in a conveniently unitary form. Without this the commutation relations and the antisymmetry of the Field Strength Tensors results in all scattering vertices cancelling. This suggests that the electron states in strongly anharmonic crystals, which are the phonon source terms, may be non-trivial and consist of a many-body structure which is not describable in terms of single quasiparticles.
This work presents a method of grouping the electron spinors and the acoustic phonon modes of polar crystals such as metal oxides into an SU(2) gauge theory. The gauge charge is the electron spin, which is assumed to couple to the transverse acoustic
We prove that magnetic charge does not exist as a physical observable on the physical Hilbert space of the pure SU(2) gauge theory. The abelian magnetic monopoles seen in lattice simulations are then interpreted as artifacts of gauge fixing. The appa
We study the Schwinger process in a uniform non-Abelian electric field using a dynamical approach in which we evolve an initial quantum state for gluonic excitations. We evaluate the spectral energy density and number density in the excitations as fu
We explore a novel coupling mechanism of electrons with the transverse optical (TO) phonon branch in a regime when the TO mode becomes highly anharmonic and drives the ferroelectric phase transition. We show that this anharmonicity, which leads to a
Recently there has been paid much attention to phenomena caused by local anharmonic vibrations of the guest ions encapsulated in polyhedral cages of materials such as pyrochlore oxides, filled skutterdites and clathrates. We theoretically investigate
