The loop transform in quantum gauge field theory can be recognized as the Fourier transform (or characteristic functional) of a measure on the space of generalized connections module gauge transformations. Since this space is a compact Hausdorff space, conversely, we know from the Riesz-Markov theorem that every positive linear functional on the space of continuous functions thereon qualifies as the loop transform of a regular Borel measure on the moduli space. In the present article we show how one can compute the finite joint distributions of a given characteristic functional, that is, we derive the inverse loop transform.
