A Basis for Invariants in Non-Abelian Gauge Theories

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

An algorithm is described to convert Lorentz and gauge invariant expressions in non--Abelian gauge theories with matter into a standard form, consisting of a linear combination of basis invariants. This algorithm is needed for computer calculations of effective actions. The defining properties of the basis invariants are reported. The number of basis invariants up to mass dimension 16 are presented.
