Quantum Deformation of BRST Algebra

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We investigate the qq-deformation of the BRST algebra, the algebra of the ghost, matter and gauge fields on one spacetime point using the result of the bicovariant differential calculus. There are two nilpotent operations in the algebra, the BRST transformation \brs\brs and the derivative dd. We show that one can define the covariant commutation relations among the fields and their derivatives consistently with these two operation as well as the *-operation, the antimultiplicative inner involution.
