Abstract

In this paper we give some prescriptions in order to remove the Wess Zumino fields of the BFFT formalism and, consequently, we derive a gauge invariant system written only in terms of the original second class phase space variables. Here, the Wess Zumino fields are considered only as auxiliary variables that permit us to reveal the underlying symmetries present in a second class system. We apply our formalism in three important and illustrative constrained systems which are the Chern Simons Proca theory, the Abelian Proca model and the reduced SU(2) Skyrme model.
