L²-topology and Lagrangians in the space of connections over a Riemann surface
We examine the L²-topology of the gauge orbits over a closed Riemann surface. We prove a subtle local slice theorem based on the div-curl lemma of harmonic analysis, and deduce local pathwise connectedness of the gauge orbits. Based on a quantitative version of the connectivity, we generalize compac...
