Spinors in braided geometry

Mićo Đurđević, Zbigniew Oziewicz (1996)

Banach Center Publications

Let V be a ℂ-space, σ E n d ( V 2 ) be a pre-braid operator and let F l i n ( V 2 , ) . This paper offers a sufficient condition on (σ,F) that there exists a Clifford algebra Cl(V,σ,F) as the Chevalley F-dependent deformation of an exterior algebra C l ( V , σ , 0 ) V ( σ ) . If σ σ - 1 and F is non-degenerate then F is not a σ-morphism in σ-braided monoidal category. A spinor representation as a left Cl(V,σ,F)-module is identified with an exterior algebra over F-isotropic ℂ-subspace of V. We give a sufficient condition on braid σ that the spinor representation...

Stable blow up dynamics for the critical co-rotational Wave Maps and equivariant Yang-Mills Problems

Pierre Raphaël, Igor Rodnianski (2008/2009)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

This note summarizes the results obtained in [30]. We exhibit stable finite time blow up regimes for the energy critical co-rotational Wave Map with the 𝕊 2 target in all homotopy classes and for the equivariant critical S O ( 4 ) Yang-Mills problem. We derive sharp asymptotics on the dynamics at blow up time and prove quantization of the energy focused at the singularity.

String picture of gauge fields

Jacek Pawełczyk (1997)

Banach Center Publications

The article reviews attempts to formulate the theory of gauge fields in terms of a string theory.

The configuration space of gauge theory on open manifolds of bounded geometry

Jürgen Eichhorn, Gerd Heber (1997)

Banach Center Publications

We define suitable Sobolev topologies on the space 𝒞 P ( B k , f ) of connections of bounded geometry and finite Yang-Mills action and the gauge group and show that the corresponding configuration space is a stratified space. The underlying open manifold is assumed to have bounded geometry.

The Group of Large Diffeomorphisms in General Relativity

Domenico Giulini (1997)

Banach Center Publications

We investigate the mapping class groups of diffeomorphisms fixing a frame at a point for general classes of 3-manifolds. These groups form the equivalent to the groups of large gauge transformations in Yang-Mills theories. They are also isomorphic to the fundamental groups of the spaces of 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms, which are the analogues in General Relativity to gauge-orbit spaces in gauge theories.
