The notion of a net of -systems combines the notion of a C-star system with the notion of local net of observables. In this way, the notion of global gauge groups is introduced into the Haag-Kastler approach to AQFT.
Let be a local net of C-star algebras. Let be a locally compact topological group and a representation of on the quasi-local algebra , that is
so that is a C-star system.
The tuple is a net of -systems if .
In the context of Haag-Kastler nets the group is called the
global gauge group and every automorphism is called a gauge automorphism.
This definition makes sense also if the net consists of star-algebras only, of course.
