Reprint of K. G. Wilson, Phys. Rev. 179 (1969), filed under the title Scale Invariance in a University of Utah 1977-1979 folder. It proposes models of current algebra based on broken scale invariance and operator-product expansions instead of Lagrangians. It discusses Weinberg sum rules, the Bjorken limit, and nonleptonic weak decays. The OCR is noisy, with run-together words.

Wilsom :paperreedNov1968omoperator product expansions 4
Fe) 1.Introduction. Attimeofwriting current algebra wasalltherage,withits
various equal time commutators. This paper will expand the realm of same by
assuming that scale invariance holds somehow athigh energy (small distances),
and that there exist operator product expansions. Paper will show why this is
reasonable. Idea istonot always sit right on top of sharp singularities, Paper
will doboth theory add applications,
2.Operator Product Expansions. Weshould beaware that ingeneral equal-time
commtators contain not just one term but derivatives ofdeltas and possibly
divergent constant coefficients ofsome ofthese deltas, asubject usually
referred to as"schwinger terms". Why not, says Witton, just consider the product
of two fields without any commtator orequal time. Perhaps for x-y small in
sense of(x-y)* youcanshowthatA(x)B(y) =sum0,(my)0,,(x)where0,is
somehow acomplete setofoperators. Ifyou assume that thefunctions C,have
acertain simple power form, then you will find the desirable property that
(A,B) vanishes outside light cone, And ther asyou approach the equal time
comtator ligit you can see how the delta functions arise and how infinite
fo)constants mightalsoarise,clearlydescribed ompage179.Soclearly, ifcorrect, operator product expansions allow clearer vision
ofwhat isgoing down, Obviously the thing todoisstudy expansions inmodel
theories to see what they look like.
3.Scdle Invariance. Suppose inadditiom tooperator product expansion you also
have exact scale invariance (ie, all operators transform imusual way ,each
operator having adimension d(m). Then you get the important result (3.4) which
says that you can utilize this scale transformation to access the lightcone
slingular region oftheCO,(zy)functions. Youlearnthattheoperators 0,(x)
oflowest dimension will then bemost important, ones ofhigher dimension less
so, ifyou are interested inthe lightcone limit. Inany situation you can always
group all your operators according todimension; for any finite dimension there
are only afinite number of operators under that dimension, sonow you have a
way toorganize your operator expansion, anotion ofconvergence. The operator
oflowest dimension andthus themost important oneisalways }0,(x)=»identity.
If, inaddition toscale invariance, you have some other symmetry generated
say by charge Q,you get interesting results shown on page 1502.

re) Anoverallcomment:This paper written in1969 isabout several different subjects. Onfirst reading
Iknew nothing sbout any ofthese subjects and had trouble following the paper.
Now Iknow alittle about some ofthe subjects. They are:
a)theory ofscale ordilatation invariance. (section 5)
b)theory ofconformal invariance (section 5)
¢)good Noether understanding, Belinfante symmetric tensor etc. (section 5)
d)derivation andmeaning of"Ward Identities" with Oy,inside theVEVTOP.
e)renormalization theory.
f)gravitational theory.
Atthis point Iknow pretty much about the first four topics. Gravitation isof
course the motivation for the paper, why you want renormalizeable stress tensor
soyou can dogravity. Myreal weakness is, asusual, renormalization.
8.26.78
re)Callan,Coleman,Jackiw:ANewImprovedEnergyMomentumTensor.(1281970)
Comment: this paper isvery peripheral towhat Iamnow doing. Ijust wanted tosee
something about scale transformations endthe conserved cutrett. However, jnline
with myphiloschvy that itishealthy toread papers that areaccepted as"famous"
Ihave read alittle ofthis thing anyway, although not presently relevent.
1.Introduction. Forasimvle g*scaler field theory they write downtheusual
canonical etree tensor T,,, andinvent their owntensor @,, which isequivalent
inthesense that ityields thesameP"andMY Poincare groupy currents. However,
this new tensor isnicer inthat its divergence is"soft" inseome sense. This
tensor ,,is,like T,,, conserved.
2.Continue: Theobject ofinterest is(2.8a), ie,theVEVTOP ofthetensor 0,
which isofcourse just afunction ofthe fields. Why they are interested in
matrix elements ofthis tensor Idonot know, but they want toprove that ifyou
take this tensor inplace ofthe usual one, then itispossible toarrive et
matrixelementswhicharecutoff-indesendent. Ie,insomesensetheobjectO., fo)is renormalizeable.
3.General case. Here itisclaimed that themost general renormalizable Lagrangian
can only have mesons, fermions, and vector bosons. Moreover, there has tobe
asymmetry tothat the vectors couple toconserved currents. This allows you to
replace N°withk?inthevector propagators, thereby retaining renormalizeability.
Forthis generel theory, the0,tensor isdafined asin(3.12) .They goonto
vrove insimiler fashion tothe special case treated above that the matrix elements
ofO,,areWfinite.
«Samvle Calculetion. The above proofs deal with renormalizability toall erders,
and are based oncounterterms and BHP theorems etc etc. Here they just want toshow
how things work tolowest order perturbation theory. They return tothe simple
guLagrangian andthey will compute thematrix elementx of@.,with twoexternal
varticles only. This involves doing some feynman graphs. Aninterestin gtrick I
had not peeveiously heard ofisthat ofhaving ficttious "regular" mesons fields
addedtothelagrangian, justawaytoimplement thecutoff,Thematrixelement 6 ofinterest isM,andthey goontoshow that asyouremove thecutoffs, Muy
is finite.
Again, Ihave very poor motivation here because Idont know why you want a“renormalizeable" streetensor inthefirstplace. g
5.Scie and Conformal Invariance. Now weare gettin gcloser tomycureent
interest. Suppose you have aLagrangian and you make ascale transformation.
Infancy generel matrix notation this isgiven by(5.1), butitmeans that you
stretch each field according toits canonical dimenSion. The claim, which seems
almost obvious, isthat ifyou have only dimensionless coupling constants in
your lagrangian, this scale transformation will beasymmetry. Asasymmetry,
there will ofcourse beaNoether conserved current J,. Theinteresting fact
isthatthiscurrent J,isprecisely thegiven by Jy=XYOywhere 0,
isthe tensor they have been describing aZl along. Probably Iwould dowell to
gustworkthisoutonmyom?
.
Asidelight ofthis section isadefinition ofthe conformal group. Itis
infact SO(4,2) and contains theusual Poincare group with its 10generators,
nlus there are5newgenerators oneofwhich isthescale generator. Theother
four are conformal generators ofsome wort.
&Gravity.HereIthinkmyquestionisanswered,RecallthattheEinstein 7]
equations tell youthat thespin-2 gravity field ismore orless 7.,,, thecenonical
stress tensor. Actually, this isthesource, andR,.,theRicci tensor canbe
taken asthegravity field (orh,,), similar tothefield ¢forameson. Now,
Ithink the point isthis: ifyou consider graviton emission between two states,
youaregoing toendupwith R,,andthen @T,, inyour VEVTOP, Ithink they
cleim that ifthey choose instead todrive gravity with the0,tensor, then
gravity iscloser tobeing renormalizeable. Ie,thefield 0,apoears inyour
matrix element because itisroughly the graviton field.
Sogravity istheir main motivation for having astress tensor that has
finite matrix elements, ie, which is "renormeilzaeable. "
Needless tosay Ihave not followed mich oftheir discussion. But atleast
their motivation is clear.

Appendix A: Basics ofScale and Conformal Trensformations.
ie] PartI:Dilatations. IhaveworkedthesedetailsoutonmyownunderDilatations
inGeneral Field Theory binder. The idea isthat the Poincare Group has 10 generators
called PY andMY .These are assocaited with translations androtations andboost
transformations onfunctions ofspacetime. Similarly, you can condider scale .
trensformations and invent anew generator D,Ihave worked out its relation to
the other generators, ie, commutation relations. Ifyour lagrangien has scale
invariance (anyregular andmassless field theory with dimensionless couplings
Ithink, you can just test tosee), then ofcourse there will be@conserved
cureent. Ihave shown inmyNoether notes how this current comes out being that
shown in(A.9a). Ifyou like, disaBiktle diagonal matrix which conbins the
correct canonical dimensions forthefields, oritisjust d,aspart ofthesum.
This isthe canonical dilatation current. Itisconserved inany scale invariant
theory.
Now, you canrewrite this diletation current interms oftheBelinfente symmetric
tensor which weknow is"equivalent" tothecanonical stress tensor. Dropping a
term which ha: noeffect onthe generated charge Dorthe conservation ofthe
Co) dilationcurrent,weredefinethecurrenttobe(A.15).Ie,BforBelinfante.Now, ifyouforthemoment assume that the"virial" VW"canbewritten asin(A.16),
then you canredefine your dilatation current once more toget (A.21). Ie,here
9isstill enother strees tensor beyond theBelin@nte one, andisgiven by(A.18).
So, the divergence ofthis finally established dilation current isthe trace
ofthis new stress tensor. Obviously ifyou have scale invariance this stress tensor
must be traceless.
But suppose you donot have scale invariance, ie,itisbroken saybysome
term(s) inthelagrengian. Then D=D(t) isnolonger aconserved chanrge and
yougetmodified commutators asin(A.24). Interestingly, though, [D(t), (x)]
is not affected.
This pert ofApendix Aends with aproof that themost general boson lagragian
that isscale invariant andsatisfies theassumption (A.16) isa+theory, aswe
might imagine. Moreover, the new symmetric tensor relevant tothis theory isjust
the new tensor this paper istalking about all along. Ie, their new tensor ofthe
paper maybeidentified with themodeified ciletation-current tensor ofthis appendix,
atleast forthe#+theory.

Part 2:Conformal Trensformations. This ismyfirst encounter with thie conformal
group. Ihave nofeel atthemoment forwhat thefour conformal transformations
fo) shownin(A.30)reallydo.Theirgenerators arecalledkK".Soifyoucombinetheregular Poincare group withDofdilatations andthefourKY,theconformal
generators, yougetthe15parameter "Conformal Group" which isEquivalent to
S0(4,2). Obviously there isaLiealgebra, this isgiven in(A.31) forthénew
commutators. Andthen youfigure outhowthefields transform under theK's,
answer given in(A.3h). Ie,thething appearing onthe right side ofA.34 Iwould
probably call#4similar toiydifferential operator.
Next, wewant tofind conditions for alagrangian tobeconformally invariant,
je,invariant just under theconformal generators (ahd Poincare ofcourse). The
result isthis: inorder tobeconformally invariant, your theory must bed scale
invariant anditmustbepossible towrite A.16. Well, alltheir theories have
this A.16 property, soyou can say that infact they are dealing with theories
offull conformal invariance, not just dilatation invariance.
Next, inA.38 the conserved (inconformal invariant theory) "canonical conformal
currents" are quoted, ie, Noether theorém. Itisnoted that scale implies conformal
asshown in(a.36). Then you goonand drop terms and soontomodify this
conformal current until itissimple. The result isA.40 orA.4l which Twill write
fo) downhere:

Theappendix goes ontodothecommutators ofKwhen itisK(t) inporesense of
conformal breaking, and does some other things Idont care about now.
This ismyonly reference onthis stuff, agood appandix, Iamglad they
decided toadd these self-contained appendices.
