It is well known that BRST symmetry plays a fundamental role in constructing quantum gauge theories. Yet, at the classical level, it constitutes the modern language to study constrained systems. First, this letter reviews the Sp(2)…
A superfield version on superspace $(x^\mu,\theta^a)$ is proposed for the $Sp(2)$-- covariant Lagrangian quantization of general gauge theories. The BRST- and antiBRST- transformations are realized on superfields as supertranslations in the…
The osp(1,2)-covariant Lagrangian quantization of general gauge theories is formulated which applies also to massive fields. The formalism generalizes the Sp(2)-covariant BLT approach and guarantees symplectic invariance of the quantized…
The renormalization of general gauge theories on flat and curved space-time backgrounds is considered within the Sp(2)-covariant quantization method. We assume the existence of a gauge-invariant and diffeomorphism invariant regularization.…
An explicit solution to classical master equations of the Sp(2)-symmetric Hamiltonian BRST quantization scheme is presented in the case of irreducible gauge theories. A realization of the observable algebra is constructed.
A superspace formulation is proposed for the osp(1,2)-covariant Lagrangian quantization of general massive gauge theories. The superalgebra os0(1,2) is considered as subalgebra of sl(1,2); the latter may be considered as the algebra of…
Irreducible gauge theories in both the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian versions of the Sp(2)-covariant quantization method are studied. Solutions to generating equations are obtained in the form of expansions in power series of ghost and…
We find two different q-generalizations of Yang-Mills theories. The corresponding lagrangians are invariant under the q-analogue of infinitesimal gauge transformations. We explicitly give the lagrangian and the transformation rules for the…
An unusual four-dimensional generally covariant and supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory is described. The theory has propagating degrees of freedom, and is invariant under a local (left-handed) chiral supersymmetry, which is half the…
In this paper the SIM(2) superspace formulation of the supersymmetric Yang-Mills gauge theory minimally coupled to chiral superfields is discussed. The super-Poincare invariant supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is rewritten to SIM(2)…
A superspace formulation is proposed for the osp(1,2)-covariant Lagrangian quantization of general massive gauge theories. Thereby, osp(1,2) is considered as subalgebra of the superalgebra sl(1,2) which is interpreted as conformal algebra…
A geometric description is given for the Sp(2) covariant version of the field-antifield quantization of general constrained systems in the Lagrangian formalism. We develop differential geometry on manifolds in which a basic set of…
We propose a modification of the Sp(2) covariant superfield quantization to realize a superalgebra of generating operators isomorphic to the massless limit of the corresponding superalgebra of the osp(1,2) covariant formalism. The modified…
The structure of state vector space for a general (non-anomalous) gauge theory is studied within the Lagrangian version of the $Sp(2)$-symmetric quantization method. The physical {\it S}-matrix unitarity conditions are formulated. The…
The osp(1,2)-covariant Lagrangian quantization of irreducible gauge theories [hep-th/9712204] is generalized to L-stage reducible theories. The dependence of the generating functional of Green's functions on the choice of gauge in the…
Covariant quantization of theories based on nonlinear extensions of Lie algebras in 2d is studied by using a generalized Lagrangian BRST formalism. The quantum action is constructed to be invariant under the off--shell nilpotent BRST…
The anti-BRST transformation, in its Sp(2)-symmetric version, for the general case of any stage-reducible gauge theories is implemented in the usual BV approach. This task is accomplished not by duplicating the gauge symmetries but rather…
In generalized Yang-Mills theories scalar fields can be gauged just as vector fields in a usual Yang-Mills theory, albeit it is done in the spinorial representation. The presentation of these theories is aesthetic in the following sense: A…
Some general formulas are derived for the solutions of a BRST quantization on inner product spaces of finite dimensional bosonic gauge theories invariant under arbitrary Lie groups. A detailed analysis is then performed of SL(2,R) invariant…
The general form of N=2 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector multiplets and hypermultiplets, with a generic gauging of the scalar manifold isometries is given. This extends the results already available in the literature in…
