The angular momentum controversy: What's it all about and does it matter?

E Leader, C Lorcé - Physics Reports, 2014 - Elsevier
The general question, crucial to an understanding of the internal structure of the nucleon, of
how to split the total angular momentum of a photon or gluon into spin and orbital …

Geometric Relational Framework for General‐Relativistic Gauge Field Theories

JT François, L Ravera - Fortschritte der Physik, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
It is recalled how relationality arises as the core insight of general‐relativistic gauge field
theories from the articulation of the generalized hole and point‐coincidence arguments …

Null hamiltonian yang–mills theory: Soft symmetries and memory as superselection

A Riello, M Schiavina - Annales Henri Poincaré, 2024 - Springer
Abstract Soft symmetries for Yang–Mills theory are shown to correspond to the residual
Hamiltonian action of the gauge group on the Ashtekar–Streubel phase space, which is the …

[图书][B] Gauge symmetries, symmetry breaking, and gauge-invariant approaches

P Berghofer, J François, S Friederich, H Gomes… - 2023 - cambridge.org
Gauge symmetries play a central role, both in the mathematical foundations as well as the
conceptual construction of modern (particle) physics theories. However, it is yet unclear …

Note on the bundle geometry of field space, variational connections, the dressing field method, & presymplectic structures of gauge theories over bounded regions

J François, N Parrini, N Boulanger - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract In this note, we consider how the bundle geometry of field space interplays with the
covariant phase space methods so as to allow to write results of some generality on the …

Artificial versus substantial gauge symmetries: A criterion and an application to the electroweak model

J François - Philosophy of Science, 2019 - cambridge.org
To systematically answer the generalized Kretschmann objection, I propose a mean to make
operational a criterion widely recognized as allowing one to decide whether the gauge …

Bundle geometry of the connection space, covariant Hamiltonian formalism, the problem of boundaries in gauge theories, and the dressing field method

J François - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We take advantage of the principal bundle geometry of the space of connections to
obtain general results on the presymplectic structure of two classes of (pure) gauge theories …

Hamiltonian gauge theory with corners: constraint reduction and flux superselection

A Riello, M Schiavina - arXiv preprint arXiv:2207.00568, 2022 - arxiv.org
We study gauge theories on spacetime manifolds with a codimension-$1 $ submanifold with
boundary. We characterise the reduced phase space of the theory whenever it is described …

Unconventional Supersymmetry via the Dressing Field Method

J François, L Ravera - arXiv preprint arXiv:2412.01898, 2024 - arxiv.org
In this letter, we show that the so-called matter ansatz at the basis of the three-dimensional
model of unconventional supersymmetry by Alvarez-Valenzuela-Zanelli (AVZ) is to be …
