Based on a specific choice of a subgroup $B\\subset A$ and by using the Weil transformation, we also give a new non-operator interpretation of the Yang-Baxter relation. That allows us to construct a lattice QFT-model of IRF-type with gauge invariance under independent $B$-translations of local `spin' variables.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-10-11T12:09:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "16T25" ], "keywords": [ "gauge invariance", "yang-baxter relation", "pontryagin self-dual lca group", "lattice qft-model", "operator solution" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/1751-8113/49/16/164001", "journal": "Journal of Physics A Mathematical General", "year": 2016, "month": "Apr", "volume": 49, "number": 16, "pages": 164001 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016JPhA...49p4001K", "inspire": 1397253 } } }
