On the kernel of holonomy.

Ana Paula Caetano — 1996

Publicacions Matemàtiques

A connection on a principal G-bundle may be identified with a smooth group morphism : (M) → G, called a holonomy, where (M) is a group of equivalence classes of loops on the base M. The present article focuses on the kernel of this morphism, which consists of the classes of loops along which parallel transport is trivial. Use is made of a formula expressing the gauge potential as a suitable derivative of the holonomy, allowing a different proof of a theorem of Lewandowski’s,...
