Abstract

We constructed a symplectic structure that preserves the symmetries including the topological invariance for topological Yang–Mills theory, and it is shown that the Kodama (Chern–Simons) state traditionally associated with a topological phase of unbroken diffeomorphism invariance for instantons, exists actually for the complete topological sector of the Yang–Mills theory.

Keywords: Teorías topológicas; estado de Kodama; instantones.

 

Resumen

Se construye una estructura simpléctica que preserva las simetrías, incluida la invariancia topológica, de la teoría de Yang–Mills topológica, se muestra que el estado de Kodama (Chern–Simons) generalmente asociado a instantones existe per se para el sector topológico de la teoría, sin la necesidad de imponer condiciones de auto–dualidad.

Descriptores: Topological theories; Kodama state; instantons.
