Binder of Phil's working notes dated 1979 from his University of Utah period, mixing typed pages with handwritten scans. It covers finding the general triple-glue vertex tensor forms, solving the Ward identity equations, Ward null terms, F-tensor and B-vector bases, and counting degrees of freedom. A June 1979 section covers S3 projectors, SU(2) representations and symmetric function decomposition. Handwritten pages are poorly legible.

0. ItwouljdbenicetoseeexactlywhyI"paused" whenIdidatvariouspoints.Ie,went down various alleys and hit brick.walls. Are those walls still walls?
Pause 1: Here the last thing Idid was towrite ahuge table showing 10constraints
onthesetof10S, functions including four pairs, 3S'sand#3Afunctions. Table
entries aredj,@) andd, thethree dot products. Things areallcompletely analyzed in
S,fractions. Atthis point Ididn't know what todoabout the"pairs". Somehow you
can't just treat the two members ofeach pair asindependent functions. There are in
effect four extra constraints, namely, that each pair isreally apair. Ithink mycurrent
feeling onthischargistoexpress thepair“entries usingtheX',operator sothat
you have 10operator-constraints on10functions. This iswhere Iplan tocontinue. I
stopped because a)the table wssolarge and foreboding; b)Jim swore there were fewer
tensors soIthought Ihad counted wrong and was therefore discouraged with the 10-function
approach.
.
Pause 2:Ishowed howtoreduce to6functions from10(albeit notS3symmetric ones).
Irewrote the Ward but ran into the same kind ofproblem aswith the pairs above. Here
you can extend from 5Ward equations to15byadding inthe cyclics, sothen you have6;effect6x3=18“variables”. Butthisapproach isnottoogoodbecauseyouthen
have tosomehow addINtheconstraints (12ofthem) that thecyclic functions really are
cyclically related. So15equations in18variables really scared me, soIstopped on
this because too foreboding; later Ireturned toit(see below) foranother try.
Itthen occurred tomethat Icould replace some ofthe ppproducts with the F-tensors
and this might beuseful because Marshall's vertex was inthis form and because these
tensors have great orthogonality propoerties tovectors. Icame upwith agood general
vertex form, then Iwrote down the Ward but did not Lorentz-tensor parse it.
Some ofthe contracted anddouble dotted equation here were quite simple, but
still Ididn't know what todowith them: the same 6x3 =18function problem. Toomuch
coupling between functions.
Ishowed howMarshall's solution really does fitinto this general form, then I
Just gave uponthe approach.
Pause 3: Here, reelizing that the B-vectors give you avery simply Ward null term, and
convinced that finding Ward nulls wastheentire deal, Itried converting toBfrom p.
J.gave upwhen Icould not make the three B's add uptozero, hence dould not take overo..independent tensorformsanalysis.
Pause4:Ithenreturned tothe6-function earliergeneralpppformsandtheanalysis ©. ofthe 5Ward equations. Idid some elimination and reduce ditall tothree operator
equations in6functions; Idecided itwasprogbly better tohave symmetry operators
like [e]and[12] sitting inyour equations, rather than having 6x3=16functions.
The operator approach seems better because
a)itkeeps your number offunctions down to6,not 18
d)noneed toaddinthose extra 12cyclicness constraints.
Then Iconsidered the problem ofsolving these operator-like equations. Ifound that
the operators appearing tended tobenon-invertable, projection operators. This made
life difficult because then along story about howtosolve a“double projection"
equation. Ifinally gave uponthat, though theoperator technique should prove ~
useful when Itake upthe thread again elsewhere.
Thelast burst: Showed howyoucanslide a“complete basis" into various forms,
putitintheF-tensor basis which hastwoWard Null Terms.” Complete analysis ofhow
you fit any object into any basis.
Then Ward analysis onthegeneral F-tensor form. Result speaks foritself.
Method ofWard analysis here wasy this:
0: a)obtainthe5separate equations A,B,C,D,E
b)replace Aand Dwith AWD and A-D
¢)fractionate eachequation intotwoequations usingS,analysis.
4)solve byhand theresultant setof10equations in10unknowns.
io]
Retrospective Comments.// . ie]Look back atthe original Ward Table which was obtained from the Standard Basis.
There were 10constraints on14variables. Thus, 4degrees offreédom inthe
- solution. Now Iknow where those four degrees are going:
.
2gointoapairassocaited withtheF083coefficient function 8,(12),
and 1goes into the totally symmetric piece ofthis function
and 1goes into $(123), the Ward null BBB coefficients. -
Thus, ifIhad known what Iwas doing, once Ishowed those 10constraints were
linearly indepeninet, Iwould have known right then that there were four constraints.
Iwould have knonw that the two knonw Ward Null Terms ate upfour degrees, so
Iwould have known without doing anything else that there were nomore Ward null
terms! Toshow linear independence ofthe constraints, Icould have deleted the
columns ofpairs and put the 10x10 thing into Reduce and computed the determinant.
T£Detf4O then Iknown independent andcanthen addback thefour columns and
still will beindependent.
Knowing Marshall's solution andknowing theWardNullsfromthestaré, ositwas just amatter ofcouting.
BUT: Thewhole question ishowdoyoucount degrees offreedom! Apparanetly you
must count "irreducible components" asdegrees 66freedom.
Whyshould youcount both members ofafunction pair ?Youknow youcan
get onefrom the other byanoperator ofsymmetry. Butasfunctions they are
linearly independent. Ie, oneisnot amiltiplce ofthe other. Butyou can't
change one without also changing the tther.
~
Sothequestion is: howdoyouknow that ifyousolve allthose equations,
thefunctions that aresupposed tobepairs really come outpairs? What guarantees
this?? Ithink itisthesymmetry; when youClebsh up,youinput thefact that
thefunctions arepairs when youdoyour 12combinations. Soitmust bethat they
counddnt come out anyo other way.
Similarly, inmyFine] Solution theobjects RyandR,were treated as
independent objects, butinthesolution they were indeed pair-like .Again, the
Clebshing built this in.
le]
Bythe way, Icould have had reduce solve these 10equation inten.unknowns
(againdetetingthecolums).NO,thatiswrong.Reducecannothandle£k10re)equations in 14unkgwons.. $0Idon't know howIwould have applied those
constratins. ~ 7 .
Rduce could have solved my6x6problem inthefinal solution, butIdid ]
itbyhandsince mostwassosimple.
* The read bitch problem is getting those extra degrees out ofthe problem
soyou have something you cah solve. The best way todothis ofcdurse was to
use the known Ward null terms!It!!!! .

Clearly, these two vectors inthe group algebra are orthogonal unless all three sets

Think ofthe various Rasunit vectors and the coefficients ascomponents ofvector. Then
the line above states precisely that these two vectors are orthognal.

2.Discussion ofthe situation: Asweshall see below, asolution must exist tothe
problemoffindinganotthogonal basisinthis4-dimspace.Thisiscompletely obvious, fo) and will beshown tobejust the problem ofdiagonalizing areal-synmetric matrix.
The real question is: once you have obtained anorthogonal basis, how doyou
know your group action will have block form? Certainly the two invariant subspaces will
still exist, but not obvious that the vectors you obtain byobthogonalizing will be
the same vectors which, inpairs, span the subspace. Infact, itisnot obvious that
you can have block form and orthogonality atthe same time. Lets return tothis discussion
atthe end. Itturns out that you can have both atthe same time, though now Idont know
why based ongeneral principles, only based onthis calculation.
3.The orthogonality calculation. Here ishow Ipropose totransform the ba’&s vectors:

Inthefirstline,theequality tellsusthatequations 2.andAeonpage2areredundant, soour only conditions sofar onABCD are:

Inserting 5and 6into 7,8,9 weget:

Comment: Although these newprmjerkmx idempotents Xe"dotheright thing" inthe

Unless you have honest~to-goodness projection operators, you cannot "decompose"

Exception:Inthespecialcaseofthetwocopiesofthetwo-dimrepofS3rwe re)can consider these two objects tobeacceptible projectors:

Thus, the following are acceptible projectors:

Specific Example: Ifyoucompute theprojectors using themethod ofHanmermesh,

About Decomposing Functions £(123) intoS,irreducible components.

where a,b,c arethree different functions. Ormore generally, if£(123) issame
arbitrary function ofitsarguments that possesses noparticular symmetry.
Ifthepieces Rf(123) arelinearly independent, then the6objects youget
byapplying thesixsymmetrizers arealso linearly independent. These 6objects
are:
£,(123) =(1/6) [£(123) +£(213) +£(321) +£(132) 4£(231) +£(312) ]
£,(123) =(1/6) [£(123) -£(213) -£(321) -£(132) +£(231) +£(312) }

£3(123)=(t/6)[2e(123)-28(213)+£(321)+£(132)-£(231)-£(312)] Le} Thebrackets show pairs offunctions which are"paris" inthesense that they behave
under action ofRasabasis fortheM-rep of$3.Here, then, wehavetwolinearly
independent pairs. '
Recall that the"group algebra" space isesentially theregular representation
space, andbythe"celebrated theorem" this reduces toS+A+2Mreps, soyouexpect
tosee two pairs for the M-reps.
2.First special case: suppose £(123) =£(12) only. Forarbitrary function £(12) with
nosymmetry this isnorestriction; there are still 6indpendent objects andthe above
stuff still lists them, just delote thelast arguement. The6objects areofcourse:
£(12) ,£(21), £(13), £(31), £(23), £(32)
3.Symmetry: ifyour £(123) hassome sort ofsymmetry, like thetensor form 143223,
youmayfind that thetwopairs aredegenerate; thecopy 2pair mayjust bemultiples

4.SecondSpecialCase:£(123)=£(1)only.Inthiscasethereareclearlyonly fe)three independent objects; the totally symmetryc, and one pair. Infact:

This isonly four terms, easy towrite them out. Now, given four functions and thus
anexplicit form ofthe above, what isthe "switched" tensor? Answer:

Here, thenotation Imeans ifiwas1,then I=2,Maybe Ishould write that I=P,,i.
You see that the actual momenta ofthe tensor form get switched, aswell asthe arguments
ofthe functions. Their indices stay put ofcourse, and the Lorentz indices onthe
momenta also switch. Now, rename the summation indices toget

These condtions then reduce you to4functions: notice

Thus,youmightarguethattherearereally4different "tensors" existing inthisobject,

2.Nollets remove theconstraint andletp,+P)-0 .Whatdoesthisdo?Replace Ppwith-p,.
The first tensor vanishes identically, the last three tensors are all proportional to

3.So,tosummarize: wefirst hunted for allthe tensor forms,without the constraint.
Wegot some general answers, each having four functions arbitraire ofdefinite symetry.
Then weput the constraint back inwith two effects: 1)some ofthe tensor forms identically
vanished; 2)itwas nolonger possible tomake functions that were AS.

2.Solution: forthe group Sythere are only two representations and soonly two

projectors toget forms which are associated with certain representations. Then at
the end apply scalar functions.

get resultant combined forms ofdefinite symmetry.

Ways togenerate functions which sre"pairs" formixed symmetry.
Le)1.Ingeneral,weknowhowtogetasetofpartnersforarepofanydimensionforarbitrary groupS,.Youactonafunction withthesetofprojectors x8forany
fixed copy index k,letting igoover the rows.
2.Any linear combination across the copies also works. For exemple, consider;
Bar .he =CKKE
k7
k
=RTL=BARK = LSAZ DOKK 3
>ELYd: eGs
Since any such linear combination gives aset ofacceptible "irreducible functions”
orsymmetrizers, you might just aswell choose the simplest ones. Notice ofcourse
fo)thatyouhavetoaddthecopyelements withthesameweightsforalli.
3.Example:
ft a 3 wa Bess os \ 2We22 ~\ oN -\ ~\ \KEK
- \ a
= -& ~ = +
ye Oo8 -R BB -f S38
co :Yee 22 \ \ ~\ ~\
Ts 2 2 72 ° ° -2
7 Aea fe)So,contrary tomyfirst impression, youcannot define 7,andT,here suchthat each
oneinvolves only 4group elements. NordoTyand Ypgive youanacceptible pair.
hh.Lets check outYandY'andshow (Ithink) that they dont generate anacceptible pair:
A ‘ .syY=w=y+BK, [cwtives poor)
u i} ays f=Ki-BX
1 1 a \ 1 wd. RR= RRB =AO BZMOK> = > =
=yan skde!
So,although these P,andP,arerowandcolumn projectors, they dont transform inthe
standard way and thus they wont generate acorrect partner. You need a"correct pair”
ifyou are going toutilize standard Clebsch coefficients.
5.SoIseem tobestuck with these operators asmypair generators:
\ aL= awa Ko Gr aaanyt
8 —— i + % =©oBBB -
&.Example:_ Thesimplest non-trivial case ofgenerating apair offunctions like
this istoassume that (123) =f(1) only. Then you find:
‘
J=BO)+l@Q-24
.f= B(&O-f@).
Chmment: Ifyouaretrying tomake apair offunctions, youcanalways premiltiply
onthe right bysome fixed group element. See later.

Trreducible Compoenents ofTensor Forms.
81.Letsconsider twomomentathesame.Inparticular, take 171723=p."p,¥2p.¥3.
This isanexample ofa£(123) object. Icanform sixirreducible objects byapplying

First, compute the action ofall group elements onthis £(123) object. You should

Here bythe way you see the six tensor forms that get mixed together. The complete
set of"two momenta the same" raw tensor forms really has 18elements; its like
three separate functions f(123) which donot mix. Lets keep tothis setof6fornow.
Now use table onpage 1of"expansions", Set the root threes equal to1,Idont
see any need tokeep them, and ignore the overall factor of6's. Then here are
the six functions:

The only work isgetting the table headings. The coefficients here are just. those
ofthe symmetrizers. So,wecould replicate this information like so:

Comments: Notice that,concerning the"pairs" offunctions forthemixedrep,the
pairs really dohave tobepairs inthis sense: they transform among themselves
exactly dsprescribed bytheDmatrices. ThismeansthattheyhavetobeX~4Projections
ofthesame object. Youcannot justtake anarbitrary "first row”function andexpect.
ittobeapair tosome unrelated "second rowfunction". They have tobeanhonest pair.
Also, inorder totransform correctly they have tohave relatively correct
normalization! Ihavemadesurethat, intheprojection process, Ihavenotdropped
anyfactors of2or3orsigns (red N's). Ofcourse this normalization question does
not arise for the one dim reps AadS.

Comment: Recall that thematrix for 12isD(12) =dieg(1,-1). This tells you that if
you multiply any "first row" object by(12), youget same thing back times +1,whereas
ifyou take a"second row" object and multiply (onthe left) by(12), you get same
thing back but with aminus sign. Inparticular, wehave:

Soshowing thatthefirst function £(123) was12anti symissufficient together
with thecyclic symmetry toshowthat theentire thing is12antisymmetric. Butof

heck list of tensor forms.
aS1,Piret,letsreviewhowtheyarrived. Priortogoingonmasmmomentum conservation
we had:
MA+78 +8paire =19tensors offormpyp5p,
1A+25 ¥3pairs =_6tensors ofdj5p,form
25 total
Next weset 3=-1-2 and then counted only the independent tensor forms. Wegot:
2h+28+2pairs =6tensors offormpipsp,1A+1S+2pairs =_4tensors offormd,,p otc atk
The main problem here was counting and constructing the tensors. Once you know there
are ten ofthem, ifyou have alist you can check them for antisymmetry. They have
already been checked for independence. This check isjust tomake sure notyposs.
2.Solets inspect the list. Interms that are +cyclic, Ihave kown that you need
only show 12anti sym inthe exposted term. For the first four terms inthe list, this
inspection iseasyonceyouknwotheeffect of(12)operation onthe5objects: second
row objects change sign, first row objects don't. That completes the verification’
BHthatterms1through4aresymmetric! Justlookatthem.Term 5isobvious from inspection.
Term 6isalso obvious (cyclic commutes withX,andX,).Term 7obvious.
Term 8:the [...] isclearly totally symmetric: itis12symandcylcic sym.
Term 9:again, bracket iscyclically sym and 12sym
Term 10: cyclic sojust check the 12, locks find.
3.Ihave now explicitly checked that my10tensor forms are completely antisymmetric.
Ibelieve this isthe complete set ofindependent forms.
Ward 10
July 1,1979
Contents.
ce)Comment: Thisbindercontains anattempttostartwiththegeneraltensorformofthe
triple glue vertex andseehowtheWard identity restricts thet form. However, Ithink
this isell obselete because Ireelly assumed too many terms; there ere infact fewer
then tenindependent terms, right now(Jhly 1)Iamnotsure howmany, andhowthey
should bewritten. SoIhave togoback and see,
1.This section leads uptothe Table atthe end ofthe section. This teble has 5
columns which arise bybalenceing the tensor terms inthe Ward identity. seeac -sazazaes
Thee rows correspond tothe supposed 10terms inthe vertex.
2.Itseemed reasonable totake eech colum and project itinto its symmetry
components; thus each colum might actually by4identities rather than one. Inorder
toproject each colum-identity into its synmetry frections, Ihad todoacertain
Clebsching ofproducts ofobgJets. Inmyfirst version ofthis calculation Ididthet
wrong. This section contains residual pages from that wrong calculation.
. 3.Here Icorrect this Clebsh error and redo the compuetion .The final result here
Se)isatablewhichliststhe10constraints imposedbytheWardidentity. Ihavenever
done enything with this table because Iamebout tosimplify my"most generel form"
of the vertex.
Constraints ontheGenerel Vertex Imposed bytheWardIdentity. |
D 1.Iamnotyetreadytodothisingenerality. RightnowIhavenotyetfigured out
the n-dependent terms inthe vertex. Later Iwill have toadd them. For now, Iam
going toignore n-dpendent terms inthevertes. Thus, non-dependent (gauge variant,
ifyou like) terms will begenerated bytheLHS ofthe Ward. Therefore, ontheRHS
Iwill setthe function ¢=0(which isthe simple ansatz), andthen there will also
beno nterms onthe RHS ofthe Ward. Iwill then belence the Lorentz tensor forms
and the symmetry "fractions" onboth sides. Ifall goes well, Iwill obtain the
foldowing object: the Most General Form ofthe Vertex that contains non-terms
andwhich isconsistent with the simple ensatz. Ipresume that Iwill get something
Like Marshall's result plus aset ofWard Null terms. However, Idon't even want to
guess orlook atananswer: Iwant the machinery togrind out the result.
Ifthis works out all right, Iwill reinsert the function c,figure out all
the ntensors, andre-balance thewhole thing. This isalonger problem, Iprefer
todothe shorter onefirst. Ofcourse information from the shorter problem will be
helpful inthe full version ofthe problem.
2.ThereareofcoursethreeseparateWardidentitiesonthevertex,oneforeach co)monentum.° Butifyouarrnage tohave thevertex satisfy oneofthese Wards, itwill
satisfy theothers since itiscyclically symmetric. Ie,theWard inmost general
form nowisC-symmetrie for any choice ofthe 10arbitrary functions. Thefact that
oneoftheWard's puts restrictions onthose 10functions does notdestroy cyclicness.
3.Inpassing, onewonders ifthere areanyother constraints onthetriple-glue vertex.
Bose symmetry and Ward identity inexial gauge have been considered. What isthe effect
ofcharge conjugation andparity? Also: what about gauge invariance? Ie,youcould
dosome kind ofWigner Eckart analysis with gluons being octet members and soon.I
predsume that all this iscontained inthe Ward identity, but should check that!
Onthis Wigner thing: howmany times does theadjoint appear inadjoint xadjoint?
Iets continue this line omeother time. Ithink itisimportant toknow howmany
amplitudes you have, and soon.

Now lets attack the ten general terms, one atatime:
Term1:Inorder todot2?intothisthing, youreally havetowrite outthe
cyclic terms completely. Suppose Pisaprojector ofsome sort acting onafunction
f.Ifyou see Pf appearing inthe first term, then you have toremember that
cylcic implies action onthis vector (Pf), itbecomes (123)P finthenext term
Thus, here iswhat wewant:
3 St37h +34 \ 3h 2 ‘ey|LVS 2oa f+[FazWoW
Mygeneral procedure willbethis: dotinthe3°andleave dotproducts inrawform.
Butforuncontracted momenta always replace 3--1-2 andthen group things ina
standard order interms ofthe H€X 5possible tensor forms. That standard order will be:

Thenotation here isthis: each curly bracket isacoefficient ofoneofthestandard

Status Report. ’
i fo)1,Ididindeed find 14“linearly independent tensor forms". There were 3synmetrics, {
3antisymmetric, and4mixed "pairs offorms. Ittodk alotofwork formetobe '
convinced that this was the complete set ofindppendent tensor forms.
2.Having found these "tensor forms", Ithen considered how toconstruct "vertex terms".
Idid this inanobvious way and Ithought Ihad thereby constructed 10independent
“vertex terms". BUT, Ithen discovered that some ofthese terms contained others
sothat some cotld be removed from the set.
3.Inow wish toconsider the "most general form" problem interms ofthese "vertex
terms". This isreally kaanew problem inreduction. Ithink Iknow that Ihave
generated “vertex terms" from mycomplete set of“tensor forms" inellpossible ways.
Ithink, therefore, that nothing has been omitted. Itiseproblem now ofreducin
this set to its minimum somehow.
Material Deleted From this Section.
fe)1.Thiswas‘whereIreducedmylistof10tensorformstoalistof6forms
using the "extension idea". This led tothe Most General Form ofthe vertex
given below assix terms (non-n ofcourse), Ithen took that xixk form ofthe
vertex and constructed anew Ward table, see below.
Atthis point Itried to"solve" this Ward table but Ifailed because
Iwas not yet using the cyl,ci-operator method. Ihave delted pages ofhow this
went since Inolonger care about it.

This issupposed toillustrate that the totally symmetric functions together with
the row-1 functionss comprise the set of12symmetric functions, whereas the lower
half ofthe diagram represents the 12- antisymmetric functions.
“Now, mytensor vertes term #4represents combinations ofthat tensor
form only with row-1 functions, whereas myvertex term #7 represents the same
fe)tensorformcombinedwithtotallysymmetricfunctions. Youcouldcombinethese two “vertex terms" into one byjust saying you are going tocombine with an
arbitrary (12)-symmetric function.
But maybe there issome advantage tokeeping these catagories separated.
‘The set offunctions which are (12)-symmetric isnot really anirreducible set
relative to$3;itistheunion oftwosuch sets.
2.Similarly, consider tensor form 1,IfIwere toextend the row-2 function there
toinclude the class ofother 12-antisymmetric functions, that would bring inthe
totally antisymmetric functions ,then term 1overlaps with &and 9.
3.Sohere isthe major result here.

ie]
Extensions andRemovel ofsome Terms.
1.Ihave chown that the extension ofterm 4,equals term 7,soifyou use the
extended term 4then you can eliminate term 7altogether.
Similarly, the extension ofterm 3equals term 10, soyou can drop 10
and use an extended term 3.
2.The extension ofterm 1gives alinear combination of8and 9.Thus, ifyou
use anextended term 1,you can drop &or9,Specifically, the extension ofterm
1gives theform (132), =combination of(123), and(231), .
3.Interestingly, theextension ofterm2alsogives (132),. Thus, ifyouuse
anextended term 1andanéxtended term 2,youhave ineffect “wovered" (132),
twice.
Perhaps itwould bebetter totake adifferent pair atthe start toremove
this double overlap?

fe) (1.2)=4x (1.1)=2
(2.3) =y (2.2) =-y-x
(3.1) =2 (3.3) =-z-y :
Note that x,y,z are independent since there are three independent dot products. Note
also that these things "cyclic" inthe obvious way.
5.Well, Ihave made thetable andthere are 15constraints on14functions. But
the function sets are sostrongly coupled Idon't know what todo! Inprinciple this
sytem could besolved, but practically itistoomuch ofamess.
6.What about this idea offinding asolution tothe Ward identity and then adding
null terms tothat solution. How doyou know there isnot some other non-trivial sol'n?
Fact: Any two solutions ofthe Ward mst differ byaWard null term. Ifyou have
asolution andifyouhave exhausted allpossible Ward null terms, then youhave
exhausted all solutions!

Soinorder forelement Aofthegroup albegra tohave aninverse, this determinant
must notvanish. Notice that thearguments ineach rowarearearrangement ofthe
first row, sothis islike aregular reprepresentation. This says that theh
veagrnangements ofthevector a(R) mustbelinearly independent! Obviously this
worksfora(R)=dg,g+thisjustverifiesthattheelementsofthegrouphave fe) inverses.
Sogiven a“vector "A(R), howdoyouknow ititshrearrangements are
linearly independent! ?
Think ofthecoefficients a(R) asavector inh-dimensional space. The
conditions thatdet=0isoneconditiononh-mimbers(ie,onthea(R)).Only°these hnumbers appear inthedetbecause the rows are just rearrangements.
Therefore, the "surface" upon which det-0 isone dimensional down-from
thewhile space (codimension 1?).Thus, weexpect that det=0 onsome h-1 dimensional
manifold within the h-dimensional space.
Forexample, ifh=2 weknow that det=0 obly ifa(E)=a(R). Ie,onaline
at45°through theorigin intheplane. Every “vector” inthatplane is"invertible"
except vectors onthe line. So"most" vectors are invertible.
‘Jfh=3, again there will beaphafiec onwhich vectors arenon-invertible .
There will besome two-dimensional surface onwhich vectors vanish §notaplene
because thedet=0 condition isnon-linear). Infact, ifthevector is(x,y,z), you
know that the3rearrangements arejust thecyclics soyougetthis. surface:
Pry 4232-0
Some kind ofsurface in3-space.
Obviously ifyouchoose (x,y,z) =(1,1,1) yougetnon-invertibility.
This obviously extends tothe general case.
Bytheway, note that forn=4,5.. andsoon’thearrangements arenotjustthecyclicsbecauseyoucanarrangethingsmovingeverything inotherways. cv)
Eg,with n=4 youcanreaarange like this (abcd) andalso like this (1b)(cd). So
you don't know without naming the group which rearrangements occur inthe dt: So
theinvertibility ofa4-dim vector depends onwhich 4~dim group youareusing.
‘
Conclusion: Forarbitrary vectors inagroup algebra, theprobability is
overwhelming that thevector isinvertible, because thechances arealways great
that avector does notlie onasurface within aspace. Ofcourse projection operators
correpond togroup algebra vectors which arenotinvertible, asdooperators where
all coefficients are the same.
AGroup Algebra Problem in$2.
0 Motivation: Ithinkthishassomething todowithsolving myconstraint equations
for the Ward Problem.
1.Consider this equation:
( a(12) [e] +b(12) [12] )F(12) =G(12)
Here a,b,F,@ areallfunctions oftwoarguments, ex,a(x,,X,),.and [...] denotes
apermutation group element. The problem here is,given a,b,G, how doyou-solve
for F(12) ?!
Ineffect, then, wewant toinvert the Bracket ( ... _)onthe left.
What isthis object? Itisanelement ofthe group algebra but with coefficients
which are functions of12, not just constants.
Eariler weshowed that elements ofgroup algebras (with constant doefficitns)
are ingeneral invertible. Here things are alittle different because the coefficients
here are functions which feel the action ofgroup elements. However, Ifeel that
the general result isthe same: generally there will exist aninverse.
For this particular problem, wecan explicitly construct aninverse like so:
(ALY +REx) CayCelebayLD)=fe

Gefined, isnotvery practical. Nowisthetime tostart making useofother people

Contemplate this new list: all triple momenta occurrences are now replaced with
Apoccurrences. Thefunctions areallthesameexceptthelasttwofunctions 8 are linear combinations ofthe old set, modified bydot products toget the right
symmetry. Each curly bracket has adefinite 12symmetry either Aor$and this
can beseen byeyeball.
Note also that Ihadtofake upterms 2and3byartifically adding cyclic.
Then when you convert toA's, you now really need the "+cyclic" inthese terms
because the delta parts are not done cocrectly ifyou leave that off.
4.Here isaminor technical detail: goback andlook atterms 3abd,inthe original
deal. LetA(123) beanarbitrary TAfunction. Iclacim that anysuch function
can bedecomposed inthe following way:
AQ)=LAG) +ACs)+AQ@)]
“Naw,
a“ =|SAU) +SAC)¥4Away]
Bytheway, thenotation A(12) means afunction of1,2,3 which isanti symin12.
Therefore, Ican replace terms ..wait. Suppose you write term 3as
stuff +cyclic. Then the original function nolonger need beTA: anarbitrary A(12)
will do, because the A(123) sogenerated bythe sum will still beTA.
\
The question is: are these "classes" equal ordoes one contain the other:
a) [2314312] a(123)
b) (2314312) A(12) +cyclic =[2314312](A(12)+A(23)+A(31))
Can anarbitrary A(123) begenerated from A(12) functions? Yes because you can certainly
take A(12)=A(123). Onther other hand, given A(123), canyou@ind A(12)? Same
solution. Sothese waysofwriting things arethesame. Sowecanadd+cyclic and
get reid ofA(123) infavor ofA(12). Thus, Iwill nowrewrite thelast like so:

Iclaim this isstill the most general form for writing the vertex, pricir tothe
Ward restrictions. Now there are 6functions that are undetermined: three are
A,and three are S,inonly one pair ofvariables. All terms are +cyclic and must
beso. The symmetry orantisynmetry ofeach bracket can beseen easily, sono
question but that all these tensor terms are TA. The important fact isthat
this is all there are! :

back and see if this cannot be worked out.
Better Choice ofOriginal Tensor forms.
1.Based onthe suggestion atthe end ofthe last section, Iamgoing torechoose12 ie] mytensors totry andmaximize the occurrence ofA;5 type objects. Note that all
indices cyclicize sothis object retains its high degree oforthogonality under
cyclization. Secondly, Iwill try tomake the next worse objects have the form
a2orthelike sothat atleast they vanish ononeside. Myidea isthat somewhere13_ . 1 woul later onthis will allow projection ofequations; eg, apply 1”and euch aterm would
vanish.
SoIwent back tothe original list and here ismynew choice set

Then Ihadtochoose anStensor. Again, Iwanted ashort form, butnowthere

* Iinvented some B-vectors (later definition changed!) which hadthese properties:
a) (12)B, =B (12)B, =By i .
Theidea, forexample, would havebeentoJustreplace 123tensor formwithB,B,B,
etc, and just take over all that stuff. -
Butthen Ifound thatthese B'scould not,bemaitetosumtoderoaoI
could not just "take. over" allthat tensor foims stuff. .
Inretfospect, Idont think itreally very helpful toput..eyerything into
such B-vectors anyway. Sothis isjust anidea that never gotanywhkre.

le)1.AtthemomentIamfavoringtheF-tensorwayofdoingthingsonseveral.grounds:
a)Ithink the Ward Table will besimple because F's are soorthogonal
b)Marshall's solution fits easily into this form
c)there are only 6functions toplay with, not 10.
2.Once the Ward Table isconstructed, there will beonly four independent operator
equations insix functions. This sounds like atractable problem. The plen isto
use the operator-inversion method wherever possible and just solve the whole thing.
3.Thetwoequations obtained fromthedouble-dot 273%¢!*3 andthecontraction
equation G!? mustbethree ofthefourequations. Iguess theother iscontained
in1°33G!?3. 1think itisprobably better tojustgoahead anddecomposed things
into therawtensor forms like 172” endsoon.
Lets see what our four equations look like, compare toearlier formilation tosee
Afthis F-tensor deal does ordoes not simplify things. Bythe way, donot compute
AsD type things; this isreally [e]- [12] onAandthat isaprojector. Well, I
guessitsOKtotekesymandantisymperts,butletsgetthestraighttablefirst. fe)Ithink Iwill first check the Ward identity tomake sure it4sright before doing

1,Here for the first time Iconsidered the problem ofhow you "fit" agiven
tensor into aclaimed "complete set". Iconcluded that you should take your
candidate tensor, break itdown into its "irreducible components" using some
kind ofLookup table, and then fit those irreducibles into your extended
form X-
2.Imade atable using reduce toanalyze ppp forms into irreducible fomponents.
However, later Imade amore comprehensive table sothis one has been deleted.
‘The names ofthe Standard Basis tensors were later changed toconform more to
the F-tensor basis.
3.Deleted: sheet showing irreducible basis for ppp sector.
4,Analysis ofBBB into irredubiels. See later work inppp section onthis.
5.Connectionbetweenirreducible besisandF-tensor'basis.SinceIhavechanged [e)myirreducible basis to more useful form, Inolonger care about this connection,

Question: What does itmean for_abunch ofVertex Terms toform a"Complete Set"
fe} 1.Consider thisso-called complete set:
\(2114212)A, (12)+cyclic Pvi
2.(211-212)8, (12)+cyclic2,(2314312)A,(12) +cyclic\y4.(231-312)8,(12) +cyclic 6
Inthe ppp sector, weclaim this isacomplete set ofvertex terms. What wemean, of
course, orare claiming, isthat there isnototally antisymmetric ppp-related
vertex term which cannot bewritten ordecomposed into the above forms.
2.Example: Consider thevertex term A(123)123. Howdoes this "fit" into the
above complete set? Ie,tell meexactly what functions A,S, andsoon"abosorb™
this new vertex term.
Todothis, Ithink Ifirst have to"undo" the complete set and write itin
adifferent way: Ie, Ihave toundo the extension" and say that the set ist
(211), (123) ‘
1 1La 0(211); Fy(a23) =(211)3 Rca)
(211), $3(123)
* 2Wy 20(211)5 Fy(123) -(211)7 (123)
3.(231), (123)
4.(231), 8,(123)
Icouldfindexpressions forA,(12) intermsofA3(123) andFP;andsoon,Lets
come back later to do this.
Nowletsconsiderthetermunderthespotlight: sincel23=(123),we look uptofind:
4 (211),=8(231),-Es,+(1/3)8)\3 (123)=m28,7
Therefererores Yai)g +(231)g =1/3), =(-1/4) (123), %

Sothis shows exactly howournewterm "registers" inthecomplete set. Inretrospect,
obvious thatonlytheAyandAgtermsareactive herebecuase thosetermsarewhere
the totally symmetric tensor forms reside.
. endofexample
3.Could Ihave done this example insome ofher way? Mymethod above was tofirst
express the complete setinterms of"irreducible objects". Since my"new" tensor
vertex term was itself "irreducible", itwas easy tosee how itfit in.
IfIsithereandtryto"absorb"thisnewtermdirectlyIfinditnearly fe)impossible todo.Ireally havetogoviatheirreducible channel. Eg,youseethat
thenewterm123contains only121and122pieces, soitatfirst seemsunlikely
thattheAogetsinvolved since
: -3-
itcontains neither ofthese desired pieces. Itturns out that you need this
fe)A,termtocanceloffpiecesoftheA,termtomakeitwork. Soitisincredibly easier togothrough the IRchannel!!!!!
4.Example: Nowsuppose someone hands youthis: (121+122) Ag(12) +cyclic.
How can wefit this one into our complete set? This example isalittle harder
because this object itself isnot irreducible.
Itwould probably bed nice tobeable todecompose the raw tensor forms
like 112 into their ireeducible pieces. Have Iever done that?

ASpillover Theorem fortheManiupulation ofComplete Tensor Sets.
(?)1,Supposeyoustartoffwithwhatyouknowisacompletetensorset,eb,
Tfy+Tyfy tover +Ty
Orfor that matter, why just treat them assingle objects, tensor vertex terms:
T14+12+3 +....4T™
You know that any tensor ofcertain criteria cen bedissected into these forms.
Now someone comes along and hands you some new form call itFl. You
analyze Fland you find that:
FleaM+dB+e%
You can replace any ofthose forms which appears inF1byF1; eg, ifyou replace
T2byFl, youhave added anew form (namely, £1), delted oneform (namely T2), and
you have "spillover" into the ober forms T3and T4. Thus, your new "List" is:
fo) TL+Fl+ TM+....4™
There isnoneed toindicate that T3and Thwere modified byspillover since they
are “arbitrary amounts ofthe tensor form indicated" anyway. So, inshort, because
2appeared inthe list ofFl, you could simply replace 12byFlinthe list.
2,Now somehoands you another form, call itF2. You analyze F2wrt the original
set and you find:
{24 TL+12+1)+T78 with some coefficients
Now you have tobealittle careful. Can you simply replace say Tywith F2? In
the new, once-modified list? what you really should doisfirst eliminate T2
from the F2list, then re’ask the question. Eg, suppose upon elimination of12
you find that:
FQ =tl +18+ Fl
Then obviously you cannot replace 1byF2 since Thnolonger appears inthe list.
3.Moral: Fro each new substitution, you have toanalyze inthe n-lth basis.
