Lattice gauge theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In physics, lattice gauge theory is the study of gauge theories on a spacetime that has been discretized onto a lattice. Although most lattice gauge theories are not exactly solvable, they are of tr...

“Gauge theory” is a term which has connotations of being a fearsomely complicated part of mathematics – for instance, playing an important role in quantum field theory, general relativity, geometric PDE, and so forth. But the underlying concept is really quite simple: a gauge is nothing more than a...

The theory is finite, UV complete and in the low-energy limit can be defined as the N =8 SUGRA which is the tensor product of two N =4 Super Yang-Mills theories built from two copies of the Monster group . Large quantum numbers in the limit give the classical and semi-classical fields of ... Monstrous 4D Gauge Theory...

Gauge theory describes the parallel transport of point particles using the formalism of connections on bundles. In both string theory and loop quantum gravity, point particles are replaced by 1-dimensional extended objects: paths or loops in space.

This means that the traditional techniques of perturbation theory, which is used to predict properties of electromagnetic interactions, cannot be generally used in QCD. A non-perturbative approach is required.

The absurdity of this situation is demonstrated by the fact that quantum field theory postulates gauge boson radiations being exchanged in the vacuum between charges in order to mediate force fields (i.e., causing forces), yet the attitude is to believe in this without searching for the underlying physical mechanism!
