Graduate Vector Spaces Associated with Quark Modes in k-Space

Click For Summary
Each mode of the quark field is defined by a wave vector k, which corresponds to a point in k-space, forming a manifold of different modes. Each point in this k-space can be associated with a three-dimensional vector space that represents the quark's color charge. The discussion seeks insights or experiences from others working with this model. The connection between quark modes and their representation in k-space is emphasized. This exploration could enhance understanding of quark dynamics in theoretical physics.

TL;DR
Is there an article that talks about colored vector spaces that are associated with points in k-space?
My idea is as follows. Each mode of the quark field is characterized by a wave vector k. Each wave vector corresponds to a point in k-space. This set of points representing different modes forms a manifold. Each point in k-space can be assigned a three-dimensional vector space that represents the quark's color charge. Does anyone work with this model?
