Deriving spin-1 quartic interaction vertices from closure of the Poincaré algebra

We derive the quartic interaction vertex of pure Yang–Mills theory by demanding closure of the light-cone Poincaré algebra in four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. This calculation explicitly shows why structure constants must satisfy the Jacobi identity. We prove that there is no correction to the...
