We study the 3-form gauge theory in the context of generalized BRST formulation. We construct the finite field-dependent BRST (FFBRST) symmetry for such a theory. The generating functional for 3-form gauge theory in noncovariant gauge is…
We derive the various forms of BRST symmetry using Batalin-Fradkin-Vilkovisky approach in the case of Abelian 2-form gauge theory. We show that the so-called dual BRST symmetry is not an independent symmetry but the generalization of BRST…

We deduce the constraint structure and subsequently quantize a free particle system residing on a torus satisfying the geometric constraint $(r-a)=0$, within the framework of modified Faddeev-Jackiw formalism. Further, we reformulate the…
The standard procedure for quantizing gauge fields is the Faddeev-Popov quantization, which performs gauge fixing in the path integral formulation and introduces additional ghost fields. This approach provides the foundation for…
We exploit the geometrical superfield formalism to derive the local, covariant and continuous Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) symmetry transformations and the non-local, non-covariant and continuous dual-BRST symmetry transformations for…
Recently a new type of quadratic gauge was introduced in QCD in which the degrees of freedom are suggestive of a phase of abelian dominance. In its simplest form it is also free of Gribov ambiguity. However this gauge is not suitable for…
