Defining Canonical Momenta for Discretised SU(2) Gauge Fields

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2022-10-28 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

In this proceeding contribution we discuss how to define canonical momenta for SU(N) lattice gauge theories in the Hamiltonian formalism in a basis where the gauge field operators are diagonal. For an explicit discretisation of SU(2) we construct the momenta and check the violation of the fundamental commutation relations.
