A necessary and sufficient condition of positive definiteness for 4th order symmetric tensors defined in particle physics


الملخص بالإنكليزية

In this paper, we mainly discuss analytical expressions of positive definiteness for a special 4th order 3-dimensional symmetric tensor defined by the constructed model for a physical phenomenon. Firstly, an analytically necessary and sufficient conditions of 4th order 2-dimensional symmetric tensors are given to test its positive definiteness. Furthermore, by means of such a result, a necessary and sufficient condition of positive definiteness is obtained for a special 4th order 3-dimensional symmetric tensor. Such an analytical conditions can be used for verifying the vacuum stability of general scalar potentials of two real singlet scalar fields and the Higgs boson. The positive semi-definiteness conclusions are presented too.
