We study the construction of the classical nilpotent canonical BRST charge for the nonlinear gauge algebras where a commutator (in terms of Poisson brackets) of the constraints is a finite order polynomial of the constraints.
In this paper we analyse the structure of the BRST charge of nonlinear superalgebras. We consider quadratic non-linear superalgebras where a commutator (in terms of (super) Poisson brackets) of the generators is a quadratic polynomial of…
We study the construction of the classical Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) charge and observables for arbitrary reducible gauge theory. Using a special coordinate system in the extended phase space, we obtain an explicit expression for the…
The quantum BRST charge for the most general, two-dimensional, non-linear, $N=4$ quasi-superconformal algebra $\hat{D}(1,2;\a)$, whose linearisation is the so-called `large' $N=4$ superconformal algebra, is constructed. The…

We give a solution to the classical master equation of the Hamiltonian BRST-anti-BRST quantization scheme in the case of reducible gauge theories. Our approach does not require redefining constraints or reducibility functions. Classical…
The BRST structure of polynomial Poisson algebras is investigated. It is shown that Poisson algebras provide non trivial models where the full BRST recursive procedure is needed. Quadratic Poisson algebras may already be of arbitrarily high…
The quantum BRST charges for the Bershadsky-Knizhnik orthogonal quasi-superconformal algebras are constructed. These two-dimensional superalgebras have the $N$-extended non-linearly realised supersymmetry and the $SO(N)$ internal symmetry.…
We give the explicite form of the BRST charge Q for the algebra W_4=WA_3 in the basis where the spin-3 and the spin-4 field are primary as well as for a basis where the algebra closes quadratically.
Some ingredients of the BRST construction for quantum Lie algebras are applied to a wider class of quadratic algebras of constraints. We build the BRST charge for a quantum Lie algebra with three generators and ghost-anti-ghosts commuting…
It is shown that for a large class of non-holonomic quantum mechanical systems one can make the computation of BRST charge fully algorithmic. Two computer algebra programs written in the language of {\tt REDUCE} are described. They are able…
Constrained hamiltonian structure of noncommutative gauge theory for the gauge group U(1) is discussed. Constraints are shown to be first class, although, they do not give an Abelian algebra in terms of Poisson brackets. The related…
In the framework of superfield formalism, we discuss some aspects of the cohomological features of a two (1+1)-dimensional free Abelian gauge theory described by a Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) invariant Lagrangian density. We…
The Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) method is applied to the quantization of the solitons of the non-linear $O(3)$ model in $2+1$ dimensions. We show that this method allows for a simple and systematic treatment of zero-modes with a…
The BRST formulation is used in order to derive the existence criterion for classical bi-Hamiltonian systems, based on non-anomalous deformation of the gauge-fixing structure. The recursion operator is then used to provide the entire…
The paper is devoted to the study of BRST charge in perturbed two dimensional conformal field theory. The main goal is to write the operator equation expressing the conservation law of BRST charge in perturbed theory in terms of purely…
A representation of a subgroup H of a finite-dimensional group G can be used to induce a nonlinear realization of G. If the nonlinearly realized symmetry is gauged, then the BRST charge can be related by a similarity transformation to the…
We discuss the continuous and infinitesimal gauge, supergauge, reparameterization, nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetries and derive corresponding nilpotent charges for the one (0+1)-dimensional (1D) massive…
The BRST structure of a current satisfying a non abelian affine algebra in two dimensions was studied by Isidro and Ramallo and an N=2 Superconformal Algebra was obtained. In this paper, we study the total BRST and anti BRST structure of…
We show that for open gauge theories, it is possible to build an off-shell Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) algebra together with an invariant extension of the classical action. This is based on the introduction of auxiliary fields, after…
