چکیده

In a quantum mechanical treatment of gauge theories (including general relativity), one is led to consider a certain completion, A/G, of the space A/G of gauge equivalent connections. This space serves as the quantum configuration space, or, as the space of all Euclidean histories over which one must integrate in the quantum theory. A/G is a very large space and serves as a “universal home” for measures in theories in which the Wilson loop observables are well-defined. In this paper, A/G is considered as the

P - T H - 9 41 20 73 Di erential geometry on the space of connections via graphs and projective limits

Theories of connections are playing an increasingly important role in the current description of all fundamental interactions of Nature (including gravity [1]). They are also of interest from a purely mathematical viewpoint. In particular, many of the recent advances in the understanding of the topology of low dimensional manifolds have come from these theories. In the standard functional analy...

Triple factorization of non-abelian groups by two maximal subgroups

The triple factorization of a group $G$ has been studied recently showing that $G=ABA$ for some proper subgroups $A$ and $B$ of $G$, the definition of rank-two geometry and rank-two coset geometry which is closely related to the triple factorization was defined and calculated for abelian groups. In this paper we study two infinite classes of non-abelian finite groups $D_{2n}$ and $PSL(2,2^{n})$...

Introducing a Lightweight Structural Model via Simulation of Vernacular “Pa Tu Pa” Arch

The knowledge of Iranian vernacular structures is based on geometry, and there is a possibility of recreating such structural patterns aimed at producing movable structures. The purpose of this research was to utilize the patterns of vernacular structures to provide a lightweight structural model. The questions raised included how to create various forms based on the structural history of any r...

F eb 1 99 4 Description of moduli space of projective structures via fat graphs

We give an elementary explicit construction of cell decomposition of the mod-uli space of projective structures on a two dimensional surface, analogous to the decomposition of Penner/Strebel for moduli space of complex structures. The relations between projective structures and P GL(2, C) flat connections are also described.
