Representations of the holonomy algebras of gravity and nonAbelian gauge theories
Open accessAbstract
Holonomy algebras arise naturally in the classical description of Yang-Mills fields and gravity, and it has been suggested, at a heuristic level, that they may also play an important role in a nonperturbative treatment of the quantum theory. The aim of this paper is to provide a mathematical basis for this proposal. The quantum holonomy algebra is constructed, and, in the case of real connections, given the structure of a certain C*-algebra. A proper representation theory is then provided using the Gel'fand spectral theory. A corollary of these general results is a precise formulation of the 'loop transform' proposed by Rovelli and Smolin (1990). Several explicit representations of the holonomy algebra are constructed. The general theory developed here implies that the domain space of quantum states can always be taken to be the space of maximal ideals of the C*-algebra. The structure of this space is investigated and it is shown how observables labelled by 'strips' arise naturally.

“We develop the framework for the Higgs field, in the diffeomorphism invariant context, by pushing the analogy between a usual path holonomy and a 'point holonomy' constructed from a Higgs Field (see below) and can therefore translate step by step the framework [4, 5, 6, 7, 8] developed for gauge fields to arrive at the Higgs field Hilbert space.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
