Abstract given by the source: Neste projeto iremos explorar o papel das simetrias na física quântica, e vamos nos concentrar em uma interseção de Teoria dos Campos Quânticos, Relatividade Geral e sistems integráveis quânticos. Em particular, estudaremos a formulação MacDowell-Mansouri (MDM) da Relatividade Geral e a quebra das simetrias internas e de Lorentz no caso da ação efetiva de um loop. Também exploraremos a integrabilidade do MDM modelos da simetria reduzida e os modelos BFCG correspondentes usando as técnicas dos sistemas quânticos integráveis. In this project we will explore the role of symmetries in quantum physics, and we will focus on an intersection of Quantum Field Theories, General Relativity and quantum integrable sistems. In particular we will study the MacDowell-Mansouri formulation of General Relativity and the issuses of internal and Lorentz symmetry breaking in the case of the one-loop effective action. We will also explore the integrability of the symmetry reduced MDM models and related BFCG models by using the techniques from the quantum integrable models.
