Bounded particle interactions driven by a nonlocal dual Chern-Simons model
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: Quantum electrodynamics (QED) of electrons confined in a plane and that yet can undergo interactions mediated by an unconstrained photon has been described by the so-called {it pseudo-QED} (PQED), the (2+1)-dimensional version of the equivalent dimensionally reduced original QED. In this work, we show that PQED with a nonlocal Chern-Simons term is dual to the Chern-Simons Higgs model at the quantum level. We apply the path-integral formalism in the dualization of the Chern-Simons Higgs model to first describe the interaction between quantum vortex particle excitations in the dual model. This interaction is explicitly shown to be in the form of a Bessel-like type of potential in the static limit. This result {it per se} opens exciting possibilities for investigating topological states of matter generated by interactions, since the main difference between our new model and the PQED is the presence of a nonlocal Chern-Simons action. Indeed, the dual transformation yields an unexpected square root of the d'Alembertian operator, namely, multiplied by the well-known Chern-Simons action. Despite the nonlocality, the resulting model is still gauge invariant and preserves the unitarity, as we explicitly prove. {}Finally, when coupling the resulting model to Dirac fermions, we then show that pairs of bounded electrons are expected to appear, with a typical distance between the particles being inversely proportional to the topologically generated mass for the gauge field in the dual model.
