Summary
QCD leads to a decisive renewal, i.e.redefinition of nuclear theory: an all over reconstruction starting directly from the basic quark-gluon level (thus replacing the conventional and half-phenomenological nucleon-boson scheme) is outlined within the framework of nuclear shell structure. Hereby essential - i.e. non-perturbative and group-theoretical - features of QCD play a decisive role. At the same time, a few characteristic inconsistencies - a.o. the solitonlike behaviour of the extended,in nuclear matter embedded, nucleons - of the conventional approach are overcome in a natural way.

The explicit solution, i.e. the conventional (but less intuitive) expression reads (in our notation): Pu = [y,DUyQ]- and may be proved, a.o. by covariant derivation of the commutation relations (8).
Compare, e.g. F.J. Yndurain, Quantum Chromodynamics, Springer Monographs 1983, in particular the most extended list of literature therein. (Historically, the definite statement about introducing the quantized gauge field according SU(3), i.e. QCD, in relation to the colour degree of freedom of the quarks came only step by step).
