Spontaneous breaking of the conformal group in the Abelian Higgs model
Description
It is analyzed a scalar, conformal invariant electrodynamics, in which the quantum theory is developed by expanding the fields around a classical configuration given by the 0(3,2) invariant classical solution of the scalar field. The programme is performed by projecting the theory into the 0(3,2) hypersphere and in the framework of this formalism the photon Green's function is computed
