Renormalization and quantum field theory
... If ( p1 , . . . pn ) is in the imaginary cotangent space of a point of M n , then we write ( p1 , . . . pn ) > 0 if p j > 0 for all j, and call it positive if it is not zero. Example 8. Over Minkowski space, most of the usual cut propagators are positive (except for ghost fields), local, and Hermiti ...

... ψ − (r ) = ψ (r ) − ψ (−r ) changes sign under inversion, so it has negative parity, or π = -1. The significance of (4.22) is that a physical solution of our quantum mechanical description should have definite parity, and this is the condition we have previously imposed on our solutions in solving t ...

Daniel Heineman Prize: The Quest for Quantum Gravity
... A correct theory must be • Renormalizable • Unitary • Lorentz invariant It is very hard to satisfy all three (e.g., a spatial smearing + Lorentz invariance would imply smearing in time as well, and loss of causality). (There are many solutions if we impose only two of the three). ...
