Quantum field theory and a new universal high-energy scale: Pt. 2

The present paper is the second of a new series of our publications on quantum field theory with the fundamental mass. Here the theory of the free electromagnetic field and the Yang-Mills field is developed adequately by taking into account the non-Euclidean character of the momentum 4-space. Similarly to the scalar model this scheme allows a specific local formulation in the five-dimensional configuration space. It is remarkable that the symmetry of the theory with respect to gauge transformations within this formulation looks like a broken local gauge symmetry in five dimensions, the breaking mechanism being of universal form
