Nonperturbative Stochastic Quantization of the Helix Model

The helix model describes the minimal coupling of an abelian gauge field with three bosonic matter fields in 0+1 dimensions; it is a model without a global Gribov obstruction. We perform the stochastic quantization in configuration space and prove nonperturbatively equivalence with the path integral formalism. Major points of our approach are the geometrical understanding of separations into gauge independent and gauge dependent degrees of freedom as well as a generalization of the stochastic gauge fixing procedure which allows to extract the equilibrium Fokker-Planck probability distribution of the model.
