Abstract

In this work, we study a gauge invariant local non-polynomial composite spinor field in the fundamental representation in order to establish its renormalizability. Similar studies were already done in the case of pure Yang-Mills theories where a local composite gauge invariant vector field was obtained and an invariant renormalizable mass term could be introduced. Our model consists of a massive Euclidean Yang-Mills action with gauge group SU(N)SU(N) coupled to fermionic matter in the presence of an invariant spinor composite field and quantized in the linear covariant gauges. The whole set of Ward identities is analysed and the algebraic proof of the renormalizability of the model is obtained to all orders in a loop expansion.
