Using the hamiltonian formalism, we investigate the smooth bosonization method in which bosonization and fermionization are carried out through a specific gauge-fixing of an enlarged gauge invariant theory. The generator of the local gauge…
We have constructed a modified BFT method that preserves the chain structure of constraints. This method has two advantages: first, it leads to less number of primary constraints such that the remaining constraints emerge automatically; and…
In the presence of consistent regulators, the standard procedure of BRST gauge fixing (or moving from one gauge to another) can require non-trivial modifications. These modifications occur at the quantum level, and gauges exist which are…
We introduce and study a new discrete basis of gravity constraints by making use of harmonic expansion for closed cosmological models. The full set of constraints is splitted into area-preserving spatial diffeomorphisms, forming closed…
We investigate the Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) formalism for gauge theories on spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes, with or without a cosmological constant ($\Lambda\geq0$). This is illustrated through the example of scalar…

SU(2) Yang-Mills field theory is considered in the framework of the generalized Hamiltonian approach and the equivalent unconstrained system is obtained using the method of Hamiltonian reduction. A canonical transformation to a set of…
It is shown that the canonical formulation of the abelian BF theory in D = 3 allows to obtain topological invariants associated to curves and points in the plane. The method consists on finding the Hamiltonian on-shell of the theory coupled…
A Lagrangian BRST quantization for generic gauge theories in general irreducible non-Abelian hypergauges is proposed on a basis of the multilevel Batalin--Tyutin formalism and a special BV--BFV dual description for a reducible gauge model…
We use the method due to Batalin, Fradkin and Tyutin (BFT) for the quantization of chiral boson theories. We consider the Floreanini-Jackiw (FJ) formulation as well as others with linear constraints.
