Abstract

Abelian gauge theories are quantized in a geometric representation that generalizes the loop representation and treats electric and magnetic operators on the same footing. The usual canonical algebra is turned into a topological algebra of nonlocal operators that resembles the order-disorder dual algebra of ’t Hooft. These dual operators provide a complete description of the physical phase space of the theories.
