In the contemporary debate, the symmetries of a physical theory are standardly taken to be transformations that act on the set of (mathematical) states of the theory, and which preserve the theory's classical (Yang-Mills) gauge field theory, we will mostly adopt the standard picture of a symmetry (where G is some Lie group) is localized when we turn g into a function g(x) from space-time to G, i.e. it is a gauge transformation in the general sense. Even after restricting 'gauge symmetry' to the internal local symmetries of Yang-Mills theory, the use of this notion in much of the philosophical/physics (Formal) The group of gauge transformations G is the set of maps from space-time to G redundant descriptions of a state of affairs, so that global symmetries of the universe will count as gauge symmetries— the globalization of the theory's (Formal) gauge symmetry on the boundary ∂S. ./cache/work_253ncl5p7fbujexxyg3vbvr52e.pdf ./txt/work_253ncl5p7fbujexxyg3vbvr52e.txt
