Adding a 6th point which is more precise (hopefully!)

Dec 27, 2009 at 6:41 comment added Anirbit And in these papers much of the confusion for the newbie is generated by keeping the bundles implicit for the connections. (as you pointed out) From the context I feel that they have in mind a spin-connection on SU(2). Could one start a new section on mathoverflow for reference seeking? Especially for expository reference.
Dec 27, 2009 at 6:41 comment added Anirbit The "noisy channel" effect is solely due to my beginner stage with this topic and hence unable to formulate my queries precisely! :P A reference or a link to some already existing expository article like in the responses below is equally a great help. (i am not asking for someone to write me an new exposition!) Since I could dig out only some papers on this topic like the ones by Rajesh Gopakumar or Camporesi or Higuchi which are not at all for beginners!

Dec 27, 2009 at 0:39 comment added José Figueroa-O'Farrill I cannot shake the feeling that I'm reading this question as if it had been transmitted across a noisy channel. There are things that sound right, but not before quite a bit of error-correcting on my side. It would help to edit the question and make it a little bit more precise. For starters, when you say "connections on SU(2)", what bundle are the connections defined on? Also this sort of question is dangerously close to falling foul of "Math Overflow is not the appropriate place to ask somebody to write an expository article for you" rule from the FAQ.
