We make use of product integrals to provide an unambiguous mathematical representation of Wilson line and Wilson loop operators. Then, drawing upon various properties of product integrals, we discuss such properties of these operators as…
Using product integrals we review the unambiguous mathematical representation of Wilson line and Wilson loop operators, including their behavior under gauge transformations and the non-abelian Stokes theorem. Interesting consistency…
We generalize the standard product integral formalism to incorporate Grassmann valued matrices and show that the resulting supersymmetric product integrals provide a natural framework for describing supersymmetric Wilson Lines and Wilson…
It is shown that the application of the non-Abelian Stokes theorem to the computation of the operators constructed with Wilson loop will lead to ambiguity, if the gauge field under consideration is a non-trivial one. This point is…
In this paper the analogy between differential forms arising from integrals in additive calculus and forms arising from the integrals in product calculus is investigated. It is found that with an appropriate definition of scalar…
We present the non-Abelian Stokes theorem for the Wilson loop in various forms and discuss its meaning. Its validity has been recently questioned by Faber, Ivanov, Troitskaya and Zach. We demonstrate that all points of their criticism are…
The paper is a chapter of the above-mentioned book. It aims to give an expository presentation of author's version of the non-Abelian Stokes theorem in the framework of path-integral formalism.
A practical implementation of the non-Abelian Stokes theorem for topologically nontrivial loops (knots) with possible intersections is proposed.
A formula constituting the non-Abelian Stokes theorem for general semi-simple compact gauge groups is presented. The formula involves a path integral over a group space and is applicable to Wilson loop variables irrespective of the topology…
We derive a new non-abelian Stokes theorem by rewriting the Wilson loop as a gauge-invariant area integral, at the price of integrating over an auxiliary field from the coset SU(N) / [U(1)]^{N-1} space. We then introduce the relativistic…
We discuss the non-Abelian Stokes theorem for SU(2) gauge fields which avoids both additional integration variables and surface ordering. The idea is to introduce the instant color orientation of the flux piercing the loop. The non-Abelian…
In this short review main issues related to the non-Abelian Stokes theorem have been addressed. The two principal approaches to the non-Abelian Stokes theorem, operator and two variants (coherent-state and holomorphic) of the path-integral…
The product formula of Artin symbols (norm residue symbols) is an important equality that connects local and global class field theory. Usually, the product formula of Artin symbols is considered in abelian extensions of global fields. In…
We derive the Abelian - like expression for the lattice SU(N) Wilson loop in arbitrary irreducible representation. The continuum Abelian representation of the SU(N) Wilson loop (for the loop without selfintersections) that has been obtained…
A simple analytic proof of the formula known as the non-Abelian Stokes theorem is given. It is explicitly shown that the consistency of the formula is guaranteed by the Bianchi identity for the gauge field. An attempt is made to construct…
We introduce a notion of a non-Abelian loop gauge field defined on points in loop space. For this purpose we first find an infinite-dimensional tensor product representation of the Lie algebra which is particularly suited for fields on loop…
We derive a product formula for the multiple stochastic integrals with respect to Levy process. The idea is to use exponential vectors and the polarization technique which greatly simplify the argument.
We introduce an approach to expand gauge-invariant Wilson operators on lattice. This approach is based on non-abelian Stokes theorem and overcomes some shortage of some former methods. It is also suitable for expanding any Wilson operators…
Wilson's Theorem states that the product of all nonzero elements of a finite field ${\mathbb F}_q$ is $-1$. In this article, we define some natural subsets $S \subset {\mathbb F}_q^\times$ and find formulas for the product of the elements…
We give a gauge-independent definition of magnetic monopoles in the $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory through the Wilson loop operator. For this purpose, we give an explicit proof of the Diakonov-Petrov version of the non-Abelian Stokes theorem for…
