Matter couplings are constructed in a gauge invariant fashion, both for point particles and Fermi fields. A covariant tensor notation is developed in which gauge invariance of the formalism is manifest.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1993-02-08T13:06:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "gauge theory", "gravitational forces", "dimensions", "gauge invariant fashion", "covariant tensor notation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 352664 } } }
