Introduction to the Yang-Mills quantum theory
Abstract
A pedagogical discussion of the Yang-Mills quantum theory is presented. A somewhat unconventional description makes use of physical, quantum-mechanical ideas, rather than of formal, mathematical developments. The purpose is to highlight those aspects of the model which have been exposed in the last few years by semiclassical methods, but without using semiclassical approximations. This requires a careful treatment of the non-Abelian gauge symmetry present in the theory.

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.
