def:isometric-covariance-in-curved-spacetime (Axiom 5 of the
Haag-Kastler axioms on a Lorentzian spacetime, Chapter 10
(sections/sec10/10-4_haag-kastler-axioms-in-curved-spacetime) of the
AQFT-in-Lean blueprint):
A member
φof the group of isometries ofMconnected to the identity acts on𝔘(𝐁)via a unital*-isomorphismα_φ : 𝔘(𝐁) → 𝔘(φ(𝐁)), whereφ(𝐁)is the image of the basis set. The action satisfies (1)α_𝟙 = id, (2)α_{φ'·φ} = α_{φ'} ∘ α_φ, and (3) it commutes with the isotony monomorphismi(Axiom 2).

Modelling notes #
The Minkowski analogue (
LorentzCovariance) uses the identity component of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group. Here the analogous role is played by the abstract groupM.Isomof isometries connected to the identity, acting onM.Carrier; the induced pointwise action onSet M.Carrier(φ • B = φ(B)) supplies the blueprint'sφ(𝐁).Conditions (1) and (2) carry cross-fiber identifications
U.algebra (1 • B) = U.algebra BandU.algebra ((φ'·φ) • B) = U.algebra (φ' • (φ • B))coming fromone_smul/mul_smul, implemented asEq.mpr/congrArg. This matches the MinkowskiLorentzCovarianceencoding verbatim.
Axiom 5 (Isometric Covariance), curved spacetime. A local net
U on a Lorentzian spacetime M is isometrically covariant if the
group M.Isom of identity-component isometries acts on the
assignment B ↦ U.algebra B and the action
(1) sends the identity isometry to the identity automorphism,
(2) is multiplicative in the group element,
α (φ' · φ) = α φ' ∘ α φ, and
(3) commutes with isotony.
Concretely, there exist:
- for every isometry
φ : M.Isomand every Alexandrov-basis setB, a*-algebra equivalenceα φ B : U.algebra B ≃⋆ₐ[ℂ] U.algebra (φ • B); - for every inclusion
B₁ ⊆ B₂of basis sets, a choice of isotony*-monomorphismι B₁ B₂ : U.algebra B₁ →⋆ₐ[ℂ] U.algebra B₂;
such that (1) α 1 B a = a, (2)
α (φ' * φ) B a = α φ' (φ • B) (α φ B a), and (3) for every φ and
inclusion B₁ ⊆ B₂, the action commutes with the isotony inclusion.
