An Index Theorem for Gauge-invariant Families: the Case of Solvable Groups
We define the gauge-equivariant index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a family G → B of Lie groups (these families are called “gauge-invariant families” in what follows). If the fibers of G → B are simply-connected and solvable, we compute the Chern character of the gauge-equivariant index, the result being given by an AtiyahSinger type formula tha...
متن کاملGauge fixing, families index theory, and topological features of the space of lattice gauge fields
The recently developed families index theory for the overlap lattice Dirac operator is applied to demonstrate an interplay between topological features of the space of SU(N) lattice gauge fields on the 4-torus and the existence question for G0 gauge fixings which do not have the Gribov problem. The continuum version of our considerations leads to topological obstructions to the existence of suc...
متن کاملEquivariant Gauge Fixing of SU ( 2 ) Lattice Gauge Theory
I construct a Lattice Gauge Theory (LGT) with discrete Z2 structure group and an equivariant BRST symmetry that for gauge invariant observables is equivalent to the standard SU(2)-LGT. The measure of this Z2-LGT is invariant under all the discrete symmetries of the lattice. The SU(2) structure group of the original LGT is first reduced to an U(1) structure group by an equivariant BRST construct...
متن کاملQUANTALE-VALUED GAUGE SPACES
We introduce a quantale-valued generalization of approach spaces in terms of quantale-valued gauges. The resulting category is shown to be topological and to possess an initially dense object. Moreover we show that the category of quantale-valued approach spaces defined recently in terms of quantale-valued closures is a coreflective subcategory of our category and, for certain choices of the qu...
متن کاملFermionic topological charge of families of lattice gauge fields
the degree of φ : S → SU(N), where S is the 3sphere “at infinity” in R. The topological charge has a fermionic description: by the Index Theorem, Q = index(%∂ ) where %∂ A is the Dirac operator coupled to A. The situation is similar for gauge fields on compact manifolds such as S, T , . . . Consider now a family A of SU(N) gauge fields on the 4-torus T 4 parameterized by y ∈ Y (a smooth paramet...
