Brackets in the jet-bundle approach to field theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

In the first part the sh Lie structure of brackets in field theory, described in the jet bundle context along the lines suggested by Gel'fand, Dickey and Dorfman, is analyzed. In the second part, we discuss how this description allows us to find a natural relation between the Batalin-Vilkovisky antibracket and the Poisson bracket.
