Connections and Generalized Gauged Transformations
With the standard fibre being a coset manifold, the transformation of a connection form in a fibre bundle under the action of the isometry group includes a dependence on the fibre coordinate. Elimination of the fibre coordinate from the transformation rule implies that the standard fibre is a Lie group and that the bundle is a principal bundle. The dependence on the fibre coordinate is consider...
متن کاملTg–equivariance of Connections and Gauge Transformations
We consider the notion of a connection on a principal bundle P (M, G) from the point of view of the action of the tangential group TG. This leads to a new definition of a connection and allows to interpret gauge transformations as effect of the TG action.
متن کاملGauge Orbit Types for Generalized Connections
Different versions for defining Ashtekar’s generalized connections are investigated depending on the chosen smoothness category for the paths and graphs – the label set for the projective limit. Our definition covers the analytic case as well as the case of
متن کاملDiffeomorphism-invariant Generalized Measures On the Space of Connections Modulo Gauge Transformations
The notion of a measure on the space of connections modulo gauge transformations that is invariant under diffeomorphisms of the base manifold is important in a variety of contexts in mathematical physics and topology. At the formal level, an example of such a measure is given by the Chern-Simons path integral. Certain measures of this sort also play the role of states in quantum gravity in Asht...
متن کاملGeneralized gauge transformations: SU(2) Yang-Mills case.
Gauge transformations with Dirac point splitting are systematically discussed for the case of a pure YangMills theory. These generalized gauge transformations are based on two ingredients: a fixed four-vector, which defines the point splitting, and a weight function, which gives an average over the amount of point splitting and which provides a cutoff in momentum space in the direction of the p...
