It is shown that the BRST charge $Q$ for any gauge model with a Lie algebra symmetry may be decomposed as $$Q=\del+\del^{\dag}, \del^2=\del^{\dag 2}=0, [\del, \del^{\dag}]_+=0$$ provided dynamical Lagrange multipliers are used but without…
It has previously been shown that a BRST quantization on an inner product space leads to physical states of the form |ph>=e^[Q, \psi] |\phi> where |\phi> is either a trivially BRST invariant state which only depends on the matter variables,…
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…
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…
By means of a generalized quartet mechanism we show in a model independent way that a BRST quantization on an inner product space leads to physical states of the form |ph>=e^{[Q, \psi]} |ph>_0 where Q is the nilpotent BRST operator, \psi a…
There is an elaborated abstract form of BRST quantization on inner product spaces within the operator formalism which leads to BRST invariant states of the form |ph>=e^{[Q,\psi]} |\phi> where \psi is a gauge fixing fermion, and where |\phi>…
We show the existence of a co(dual)-BRST symmetry for the usual BRST invariant Lagrangian density of an Abelian gauge theory in two dimensions of space-time where a U(1) gauge field is coupled to the Noether conserved current (constructed…
We propose a modification of the gauge-fixing procedure in the Lagrangian method of superfield BRST quantization for general gauge theories which simultaneously provides a natural generalization of the well-known BV quantization scheme as…
BRST quantization is an elegant and powerful method to quantize theories with local symmetries. In this article we study the Hamiltonian BRST quantization of cosmological perturbations in a universe dominated by a scalar field, along with…
In this Thesis we present a comprehensive study of perturbative and non-perturbative non-Abelian gauge theories in the light of gauge-fixing procedures, focusing our attention on the BRST formalism in Yang-Mills theory. We propose first a…
In this note we give a BRST interpretation of inner product of group averaging on de Sitter group SO(2,1). Quantization approaches can be divided in two classes, without introducing additional degrees of freedom and with introducing ghosts,…
We study some reparametrization invariant theories in context of the BRST-co-BRST quantization method. The method imposes restrictions on the possible gauge fixing conditions and leads to well defined inner product states through a gauge…
Renormalized gauge-invariant observables in gauge theories form an algebra which is obtained as the cohomology of the derivation $[\textbf{Q}_L, -]$ with $\textbf{Q}_L$ the renormalized interacting quantum BRST charge. For a large class of…
We discuss some aspects of cohomological properties of a two-dimensional free Abelian gauge theory in the framework of BRST formalism. We derive the conserved and nilpotent BRST- and co-BRST charges and express the Hodge decomposition…
A $q$-deformed free scalar relativistic particle is discussed in the framework of the BRST formalism. The $q$-deformed local gauge symmetry and reparametrization invariance of the first-order Lagrangian have been exploited for the BRST…
The BRST quantization of the Abelian Proca model is performed using the Batalin-Fradkin-Tyutin and the Batalin-Fradkin-Vilkovisky formalism. First, the BFT Hamiltonian method is applied in order to systematically convert a second class…
We consider the general gauge theory with a closed irreducible gauge algebra possessing the non-anomalous global (super)symmetry in the case when the gauge fixing procedure violates the global invariance of classical action. The theory is…
We show that the associative algebra structure can be incorporated in the BRST quantization formalism for gauge theories such that extension from the corresponding Lie algebra to the associative algebra is achieved using operator…
In the BRST-BFV scheme for noncommutative D-branes with constant NS $B$-field, introducing ghost degrees of freedom we construct the gauge fixed Hamiltonian and corresponding effective Lagrangian invariant under nilpotent BRST charge. It is…
We discuss the BRST cohomology and exhibit a connection between the Hodge decomposition theorem and the topological properties of a two dimensional free non-Abelian gauge theory having no interaction with matter fields. The topological…
