Description

'Quark color' switching is given a smooth topological representation that leaves junction lines uncrossed by charge or momentum arcs. One of the 3 topological colors maintains a distinguished role, but color asymmetry is diminished with respect to an earlier nonsmooth switching proposal. It is shown that strong-interaction quantum surfaces now never become disconnected. (orig.)
