Surface charge algebra in gauge theories and thermodynamic integrability
Surface charge algebra in gauge theories and thermodynamic integrability
Surface charges and their algebra in interacting Lagrangian gauge field theories are constructed out of the underlying linearized theory using techniques from the variational calculus. In the case of exact solutions and symmetries, the surface charges are interpreted as a Pfaff system. Integrability is governed by Frobenius’ theorem and the …
