Renormalization flow fixed points for higher-dimensional abelian gauge fields

Abstract: A connection modulo gauge symmetry on the trivial principal bundle

M i m e s G

is a morphism from the loop group of

M

into

G

. Thus, considering only loops around the 2-cells of a distinguished family of progressively refined cellular structures on

M

, the observable algebra

A

of an abelian gauge field can be presented as an inductive limit of quotients of polynomial algebras. In that context, it turns out that the state

m u_{l} a m b d a : A i g h t a r r o w m a t h b b C

of the Yang-Mills field on the sphere can be written

m u_{l} a m b d a = m u_{0} m a t h r m e^{l a m b d a L}

with

l a m b d a

an interaction strength parameter,

L : A i g h t a r r o w A

an explicit second-order partial differential operator and

m u_{0}

the state of an almost surely flat connection. Extrapolating, we provide analogous states for the case of abelian gauge fields on

m a t h b b R^{d}

.
