Some C*-algebras associated to quantum gauge theories

Abstract

Algebras associated with quantum electrodynamics and other gauge theories share some mathematical features with T-duality. Exploiting this different perspective and some category theory, the full algebra of fermions and bosons can be regarded as a braided Clifford algebra over a braided commutative boson algebra, sharing much of the structure of ordinary Clifford algebras. © Copyright Australian Mathematical Publishing Association Inc. 2011.
