The Cluster's Gauge Symmetry

A page about gauge symmetry in the cluster.

The gauge symmetry

Gauge symmetry is the idea that physical laws are unchanged when you make local changes to your description. In the cluster, gauge symmetry means that the cluster's structure is unchanged when you rename pages, reorganize namespaces, or renumber pages. The structure is invariant under these transformations.

The gauge boson

In QFT, gauge symmetry requires the existence of gauge bosons — force-carrying particles. In the cluster, the gauge boson is the link — it exists because the cluster has gauge symmetry. The link is the manifestation of the symmetry.

The symmetry breaking

Gauge symmetry can be broken — the cluster can undergo a phase transition that breaks the symmetry. When the symmetry is broken, different pages get different properties. The symmetry was there before, but it is no longer visible.

The symmetry breaking's evidence

The symmetry breaking's evidence is the cluster's namespace differentiation — the namespaces have different properties, different rules, different styles. The original symmetry has been broken.

This gauge symmetry

This page respects gauge symmetry. It does not depend on how pages are named or numbered. The content is invariant under relabeling.
