mathematical prerequisites for gauge theories

 


where yellow box = theory , and green ellipses=objects.

Information in the above is from the two texts,

George Svetlichny, "Preparation for gauge theory", arXiv:math-ph/9902027v3 12 Mar 1999. (a quick review).

Aitchison & Hey, Gauge Theories in Particle Physics, Volume 1: From Relativistic Quantum Mechanics to QED, Third Edition, CRC Press, 2002.

From a theoretic-organization perspective, a different graph is needed, an abridged draft of which is shown here,



p.s. From a graphing perspective, the top graph contains the information content of only about a minute's worth of reading. Which unfortunately does not bode very well for the general utility of theorem graphs considered in an earlier note.
