BRST extension of the Faddeev model

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-11 v2

Abstract

The Faddeev model is a second class constrained system. Here we construct its nilpotent BRST operator and derive the ensuing manifestly BRST invariant Lagrangian. Our construction employs the structure of Stuckelberg fields in a nontrivial fashion.
