We show that the BRST/anti-BRST invariant 3+1 dimensional 2-form gauge theory has further nilpotent symmetries (dual BRST /anti-dual BRST) that leave the gauge fixing term invariant. The generator for the dual BRST symmetry is analogous to…

We discuss the nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST), anti-BRST and (anti-)co-BRST symmetry transformations and derive their corresponding conserved charges in the case of a two (1+1)-dimensional (2D) self-interacting non-Abelian gauge…

We consider the bosonized version of the Chiral Schwinger model in $(1+1)$ dimension with the generalized Faddeevian anomaly, which does not have the Lorentz covariance structure and does not have gauge invariance either. BRST embedding is…
