Description

Explicit formulae are derived for the 2- and 3-cochains Ωsub(μνrho)sup((2))(i,j,k) and Ωsub(μνrhosigma)sup((3))(i,j,k,l) in SU(2) gauge theory in 4 dimensions. It turns out that Ωsub(μνrhosigma)sup((3))(i,j,k,l) is given by the volume of a spherical tetrahedron spanned by the gauge transformations relating the gauges i, j, k, l. (orig.)
