Manifold Vector Wave

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?

Thread 'The Power of QM and QFT'

We often see discussions about what QM and QFT mean, but hardly anything on just how fundamental they are to much of physics. To rectify that, see the following; https://www.cambridge.org/engage/api-gateway/coe/assets/orp/resource/item/66a6a6005101a2ffa86cdd48/original/a-derivation-of-maxwell-s-equations-from-first-principles.pdf 'Somewhat magically, if one then applies local gauge invariance to the Dirac Lagrangian, a field appears, and from this field it is possible to derive Maxwell’s...
