The Wu–Yang dictionary is a conceptual framework established by Wu and Yang in the context of mathematical physics, particularly in the study of quantum field theory and the relationship between different physical theories. The dictionary helps to connect various physical concepts and structures found in different contexts, such as gauge theories, topological field theories, and string theory. This dictionary serves as a bridge between the theoretical descriptions and the corresponding mathematical structures, facilitating the understanding of how different physical phenomena relate to one another.
