Topological Measure and Graph-Differential Geometry on the Quotient Space of Connections
arXiv:gr-qc/9406025 · doi:10.1142/S0218271894000307
Abstract
(This is a report for the Proceedings of ``Journees Relativistes 1993'' written in September 1993. Containes a short description of the results published elsewhere in the joint paper with A. Ashtekar) Integral calculus on the space of gauge equivalent connections is developed. By carring out a non-linear generalization of the theory of cylindrical measures on topological vector spaces, a faithfull, diffeomorphism invariant measure is introduced on a suitable completion of the quotient space. The strip (i.e. momentum) operators are densely-defined in the resulting Hilbert space and interact with the measure correctly, to become essentially self adjoint operators.
