Projective limits in Euclidean quantum field theory, II: Abelian gauge theory (2510.21399v1)

Abstract: We present two constructions of continuum and thermodynamic limits of Abelian polyhedral gauge theories in arbitrary spacetime dimension. The first construction relies on the existence of projective systems of heat kernel measures, while the second involves an infinite dimensional heat kernel measure defined using projective limit of Hilbert spaces. As a special case, we obtain a model of Abelian gauge theory on the infinite cubical lattice, which, in contrast to the standard one, is massless for arbitrary values of the coupling parameter.
