Action formulas are treated very sketchy, because they were considered in other lectures of the workshop.Latex2e, 32 pages, expanded version of a lecture at the workshop "The Standard Model of Elementary Particle Physics from a Mathematical-Geometrical Viewpoint", Hesselberg, March 1999, http://www.uni-leipzig.de/~ntz/abs/abs1299.htm, revised versionMathematical PhysicsHigh Energy Physics - Theory46L89 47N50 47B10 58G15 81G13text
