Statistical Symmetry Breaking and Emergent Colored Noise in a Stochastic Scalar-Doublet Field Theory
Abstract
We investigate a relativistic stochastic field theory in which a complex scalar doublet is coupled to a complex white-noise source. The action preserves Lorentz and U(1)×SU(2) symmetries at the statistical level, whereas the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations exhibit symmetry breaking along individual stochastic realizations. Within a gauge-field-free sector introduced to obtain analytical solutions, we show that the scalar doublet undergoes a noise-driven random walk in field space, leading to a finite, time-dependent ensemble average of its magnitude. As an illustrative application, we further investigate the coupling of the stochastic scalar field to fermions through a Yukawa interaction. The scalar-field solution naturally separates into a tail component, which contributes as an effective mass-like term, and a light-cone component, which acts as a colored-noise source that induces a spatially correlated stochastic phase in the fermion wave function. The statistical properties and correlation length of this emergent colored noise are derived analytically within the adopted approximations. The present work provides an exploratory study of statistical symmetry breaking and emergent colored-noise dynamics in a relativistic stochastic scalar-doublet field theory.
