The quantization of gauge fields with the help of the Gupta-Bleuler formalism is reviewed.
We illustrate the cosmological Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) models realized as gauge theory in the extended configuration space with its Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) invariance upto total derivative. To investigate the model in…
Motivated by the cohomological construction for the BV formalism from physics, this thesis asks how to perform the intersections and quotients appearing in the BV construction. This leads to the study of the derived symplectic reduction and…
In this paper, we propose a field redefinition invariant Lagrange multiplier (LM) formalism in which new ghost-like fields, analogous to Lee-Yang ghosts, are introduced. These ghost fields are required to restore the field redefinition…
We present the symplectic algorithm in the Lagrangian formalism for the Hamiltonian systems by virtue of the noncommutative differential calculus with respect to the discrete time and the Euler--Lagrange cohomological concepts. We also show…
When an antisymmetric tensor potential is coupled to the field strength of a gauge field via a $B\wedge F$ coupling and a kinetic term for $B$ is included, the gauge field develops an effective mass. The theory can be made invariant under a…
This work propose an alternative and systematic way to obtain a canonical Lagrangian formulation for rotational systems. This will be done in the symplectic framework and with the introduction of extra variables which enlarge the phase…
Theories with an infinite number of derivatives are described by non-local Lagrangians for which the standard Hamiltonian formalism cannot be applied. Hamiltonians of special types of non-local theories can be constructed by means of the…
In this paper we analyze the tensor field (reducible gauge) theories in the context of very special relativity (VSR). Particularly, we study the VSR gauge symmetry as well as VSR BRST symmetry of Kalb-Ramond and Abelian 3-form fields…
A minor change in the Barcelos-Wotzasek (BW) symplectic algorithm for constrained systems is proposed. The change addresses some criticism that formalism has received, placing it on the same footing as Dirac's algorithm.
We give an example of how conventional gauging methods obstruct a systematic analysis of gauged supergravities. We discuss how the embedding tensor formalism deals with these problems and argue that the gauge algebra related to the…
A gauge independent method of obtaining the reduced space of constrained dynamical systems is discussed in a purely lagrangian formalism. Implications of gauge fixing are also considered.
The quantization of the complex linear superfield requires an infinite tower of ghosts. Using the Batalin-Vilkovisky technique, Grisaru, Van Proeyen, and Zanon have been able to define a correct procedure to construct a gauge-fixed action.…
The present article is primarily a review of the projection-operator approach to quantize systems with constraints. We study the quantization of systems with general first- and second-class constraints from the point of view of…
We present a BRST symmetric gaugeon formalism for the two-form gauge fields. A set of vector gaugeon fields is introduced as a quantum gauge freedom. One of the gaugeon fields satisfies a higher derivative field equation; this property is…
In this paper we present a method with which it is possible to describe a dissipative system in Lagrangian formalism, without the trouble of finding the proper way to model the environment. The concept of the presented method is to create a…
In this article a description of the reduced phase space of the standard model coupled to gravity is given. For space or time-like boundaries this is achieved as the reduction of a symplectic space with respect to a coisotropic submanifold…
The BRST quantization of strings is revisited and the derivation of the path integral measure for scattering amplitudes is streamlined. Gauge invariances due to zero modes in the ghost sector are taken into account by using the…
We display properties of the general formalism which associates to any given gauge symmetry a topological action and a system of topological BRST and anti-BRST equations. We emphasize the distinction between the antighosts of the…
A new, configuration-space picture of a formalism of group quantization, the GAQ formalism, is presented in the context of a previous, algebraic generalization. This presentation serves to make a comprehensive discussion in which other…
