3D Dynamics of 4D Topological BF Theory With Boundary
read the original abstract
We consider the four dimensional abelian topological BF theory with a planar boundary introduced following the Symanzik's method. We find the most general boundary conditions compatible with the fields equations broken by the boundary. The residual gauge invariance is described by means of two Ward identities which generate an algebra of conserved currents. We interpret this algebra as canonical commutation relations of fields, which we use to construct a three dimensional Lagrangian. As a remarkable by-product, the (unique) boundary condition which we found, can be read as a duality relation between 3D dynamical variables.

The Schrodinger Equation as a Gauge Theory
The Schrödinger equation is locally equivalent to a gauge theory with one-form fields in 2+1D and two-form fields in 3+1D, with BF and Chern-Simons terms organizing electromagnetic couplings, anyons, Berry phases, and...

The Schrodinger Equation as a Gauge Theory
Schrödinger equation is locally equivalent to a non-relativistic gauge theory via one-form or two-form gauge fields on the probability current, with global topology from phase winding quantization.
