Superunitary operator and BRST transformations for non-Abelian two-form

High Energy Physics - Theory 2018-03-14 v1

Abstract

Using superspace unitary operator formalism, we derive various (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations explicitly for the non-Abelian 2-form gauge theories. We introduce a new Lagrangian with a coupling of matter fields not only with 1-from background field but also with a 2-form field. Moreover, the two gauge fields couple mutually as well. A new covariant derivative involving the 2-form gauge field is introduced. We also put forth a conjecture to generalise this idea to any p-form gauge theory.
