Treatment of a System with Explicitly Broken Gauge Symmetries

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-06-21 v2

Abstract

A system in which the free part of the action possesses a gauge symmetry that is not respected by the interacting part presents problems when quantized. We illustrate how the Dirac constraint formalism can be used to address this difficulty by considering an antisymmetric tensor field interacting with a spinor field.
