On embeddings of gauge graoups in Yang-Mills theory

  • 1. European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva (Switzerland)

Description

Some group theoretical properties of Yang-Mills theories are discussed. Conditions necessary and sufficient to decide if the gauge field is reducible and are considered and some related theorems are presented. Criteria are given for embeddings and the case of SU(3) is worked out explicitly. (Auth.)
