Abstract

For both Abelian and non- Abelian gauge theories, we find gauge transformations which map fields in the U gauge to other fields in the U gauge. These transformations are not contained in the surviving gauge symmetry after spontaneous breaking (defined as the little group of the vacuum expectation value of the Higgs field). They have both discrete and continuous elements.
