Finite BRST-BFV transformations for dynamical systems with second-class constraints

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-07-16 v4

Abstract

We study finite field dependent BRST-BFV transformations for dynamical systems with first- and second-class constraints within the generalized Hamiltonian formalism. We find explicitly their Jacobians and the form of a solution to the compensation equation necessary for generating an arbitrary finite change of gauge-fixing functionals in the path integral.
