Abstract: (arXiv)
We classify Haag-dual Poincar\'e covariant subsystems \B\subset \F of a graded-local net \F on 4D Minkowski spacetime which satisfies standard assumptions and has trivial superselection structure. The result applies to the canonical field net \F_\A of a net \A of local observables satisfying natural assumptions. As a consequence, provided that it has no nontrivial internal symmetries, such an observable net \A is generated by (the abstract versions of) the local energy-momentum tensor density and the observable local gauge currents which appear in the algebraic formulation of the quantum Noether theorem. Moreover, for a net \A of local observables as above, we also classify the Poincar\'e covariant local extensions \B \supset \A which preserve the dynamics.
