The four dimensional SU(3) WZW model coupled to electromagnetism is treated as a constrained system in the context of Batalin-Fradkin- Vilkovisky formalism. It is shown that this treatment is equivalent to the Faddeev-Jackiw (FJ) approach.…
We give another reformulation of the Thirring model (with four-fermion interaction of the current-current type) as a gauge theory and identify it with a gauge-fixed version of the corresponding gauge theory according to the Batalin-Fradkin…
We propose a generalisation of the Faddeev-Popov trick for Yang-Mills fields in the Landau gauge. The gauge-fixing is achieved as a genuine change of variables. In particular the Jacobian that appears is the modulus of the standard…
We generalize the BRST transformations in Abelian rank-2 tensor field theory by allowing the parameter to be finite and field dependent and show that such transformations play crucial role in studying the Abelian 2-form gauge theory in…

We discuss a 1D many-body model of distinguishable particles with local, momentum dependent two-body interactions. We show that the restriction of this model to fermions corresponds to the non-relativistic limit of the massive Thirring…
Implementing the requirement that a field theory be invariant under Schwinger-Dyson BRST symmetry in the Hamiltonian formalism, we show the equivalence between Hamiltonian and Lagrangian BRST-formalism at the path integral level. The…
In two space-time dimensions, we write down the exact and closed Schwinger-Dyson equation for the gauged Thirring model which has been proposed recently by the author. The gauged Thirring model is a natural gauge-invariant extension of the…
We derive the off-shell nilpotent and absolutely anticommuting Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry transformations, corresponding to the (1-form) Yang-Mills (YM) and (2-form) tensorial gauge symmetries of the four (3 +…
We discuss the extended BRST and anti-BRST symmetry (including shift symmetry) in the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) formulation for two and three form gauge theories. Further we develop the superspace formulation for the BV actions for these…

Using the technique of finite field dependent BRST transformations we show that the classical massive Yang-Mills theory and the pure Yang-Mills theory whose gauge symmetry is broken by a gauge fixing term are identical from the view point…
This work extends to the D-dimensional space-time the topological mass generation mechanism of the nonabelian BF model in four dimensions. In order to construct the gauge invariant nonabelian kinetic terms for a (D-2)-form B and a 1-form A,…
We demonstrate that the nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry invariance of the Lagrangian density of a four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) non-Abelian 1-form gauge theory with Dirac fields can be captured within the…
