Equivalence of the Aharonov-Bohm and Dirac Monopole Potentials

The Aharonov-Bohm effect (experimentally verified) constitutes an undubitable proof of the non local nature of quantum mechanics and of the gauge character of the electromagnetic interaction. On the other hand, the existence of a Dirac monopole (not yet experimentally confirmed) leads to the quantization of the electric charge. Both phenomena can be mathematically described in the context of fiber bundle theory. Using this approach, we briefly review the mutual determination of the corresponding connections ωA−B, ωDand potentials AA−B±, AD±. This mathematical result gives an additional theoretical support to present day active search of the magnetic charge.

The Significance of Generalized Gauge Transformation across Fundamental Interactions

The author of this paper has put forward a unified program of gauge field from the mathematical and physical picture of the principal associated bundles: thinking that our universe may have more fundamental interactions than the four fundamental interactions, and these basic interaction gauge fields are only the projection components to the base manifold, that is our universe, from a unified gauge potential or connection of the principal associated bundle manifold on the base manifold. These components can satisfy the transformation of gauge potential, and can even be transformed from one basic interaction gauge potential to another basic interaction gauge potential, and can be summarized into a unified equation, that is, the generalized gauge Equation (GGE), but the gauge potential or connection on the principal bundle is invariant, corresponding to the invariance of gauge transformation [1]. In this paper, we will continue to discuss this aspect concretely, and specifically construct a spatiotemporal model with the frame bundle as the principal bundle, and the tensor bundle as the associated bundle, so that the four fundamental interactions, especially the electromagnetic interaction and the gravitational interaction, can be reflected in the bottom manifold, that is, the regional distributions in our universe. Furthermore, this paper studies the existence of gauge transformation across basic interactions by establishing a model of gauge transformation of basic interaction field;it is found that the unified expression formula is GGE and the expression relation on the curvature of space-time. Therefore, the author discusses the feasibility of the generalized gauge transformation across the basic electromagnetic interaction and the basic gravitational interaction, and on this basis, specifically determines a method or way to find the generalized gauge transformation, so as to try to realize the last step of the “unification” of the four fundamental interactions in physics, that is, the “unification” of electromagnetism and gravity.

An Outline of the Grand Unified Theory of Gauge Fields

This paper attempts to propose a grand unified guiding principle of gauge fields from the mathematical and physical picture of fiber bundles: it is believed that our universe may have more fundamental interactions than the four fundamental interactions, and the gauge fields of these fundamental interactions are just a unified gauge potential on the fiber bundle manifold or the components connected to the bottom manifold, that is, our universe;these components can meet the transformation of gauge potential, and even can be transformed from a fundamental interaction gauge potential to another fundamental interaction gauge potential, and can be summarized into a unified equation, namely the expression of the generalized gauge equation, corresponding to the gauge transformation invariance;so gauge transformation invariance is a necessary condition to unify field theory, but quantization of field is not a necessary condition;the four (or more) fundamental interaction fields of the universe are unified into a universal gauge field defined by the connection of the principal fiber bundle on the cosmic base manifold.

Large Scale Fundamental Interactions in the Universe

The author of this paper once attempted to propose a unified framework for gauge fields based on the mathematical and physical picture of the principal fiber bundle: that is, to believe that our universe may have more fundamental interactions than the four, and these fundamental gauge fields are only components on the bottom manifold (i.e. our universe) projected by a unified gauge potential of the principal fiber bundle manifold;these components can satisfy the transformation of gauge potential, or even be transformed from one basic interaction gauge potential to another basic interaction gauge potential, and can be summarized into a unified equation, namely the generalized gauge equation expression, corresponding to gauge transformation invariance;so the invariance of gauge transformation is a necessary condition for unified field theory, and the four (or more) fundamental interaction fields of the universe are unified in a unified gauge field defined by the connection on the principal fiber bundle. In this paper, the author continues to propose a model of large-scale (gravitational) fundamental interactions in the universe based on the mathematical and physical picture of the principal fiber bundle, attempting to explain that dark matter and dark energy are merely reflections of these gravitational fundamental interactions that deviate in intensity from the gravitational fundamental interactions of the solar system at galaxy scales or some cosmic scales which are much larger than the solar system. All these “gravitational” fundamental interactions originate from the unified gauge field of the universe, namely the connection or curvature on the principal fiber bundle. These interactions are their projected representations on the bottom manifold (i.e. our universe) by different cross-sections (gauge transformations). These projection representations of the universe certainly are described by the generalized gauge equation or curvature similarity equation, and under the guidance of curvature gauge transformation factors, oscillate and evolve between the curvatures 1→0→-1→0→1 of the universe.

Semistability of Frobenius Direct Image of Representations of Cotangent Bundles

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p 〉 0, X a smooth projective variety over k with a fixed ample divisor H, FX：X → X the absolute Frobenius morphism on X. Let E be a rational GLn（k）-bundle on X, and ρ：GLn（k） → GLm（k） a rational GLn（k）-representation of degree at most d such that ρ maps the radical R（GLn（k）） of GLn（k） into the radical R（GLm（k）） of GLm（k）. We show that if FXN＊（E） is semistable for some integer N ≥ max0 〈 r 〈 m （rm） · logp（dr）, then the induced rational GLm（k）-bundle E（GLm（k）） is semistable. As an application, if dim X=n, we get a sufficient condition for the semistability of Frobenius direct image FX＊（ρ＊（ΩX1））, where ρ＊（ΩX1） is the vector bundle obtained from ΩX1 via the rational representation ρ.

Isometry Between Two Indefinite Metrics

This paper solves the isometry problem between two indefinite metrics by using exterior differential systems. We prove that an indefinite metric is either rigid, admits a one parameter group of isometries (rotation like surfaces), or admits a three parameter group of isometries (K=constant).
