Notoph Gauge Theory as Hodge Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v4

Abstract

In the framework of an extended BRST formalism, it is shown that the four (3+1)(3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) free Abelian 2-form (notoph) gauge theory presents an example of a tractable field theoretical model for the Hodge theory.
