BRST, anti-BRST and gerbes
We discuss BRST and anti–BRST transformations for an Abelian antisymmetric gauge field in 4D and find that, in order for them to anticommute, we have to impose a condition on the auxiliary fields. This condition is similar to the Curci–Ferrari condition for the 4D non–Abelian 1-form gauge theories and represents a consistency requirement. We interpret it as a signal that our Abelian 2-form gaug...
متن کاملHamiltonian BRST-anti-BRST Theory
The hamiltonian BRST-anti-BRST theory is developed in the general case of arbitrary reducible first class systems. This is done by extending the methods of homological perturbation theory, originally based on the use of a single resolution, to the case of a biresolution. The BRST and the anti-BRST generators are shown to exist. The respective links with the ordinary BRST formulation and with th...
متن کاملGribov Problem and Brst Symmetry †
After a brief historical comment on the study of BRS(or BRST) symmetry , we discuss the quantization of gauge theories with Gribov copies. A path integral with BRST symmetry can be formulated by summing the Gribov-type copies in a very specific way if the functional correspondence between τ and the gauge parameter ω defined by τ(x) = f(Aμ(x)) is “globally single valued”, where f(A ω μ(x)) = 0 s...
متن کاملQuantum BRST operators in extended BRST anti BRST formalism
The quantum BRST anti BRST operators are explicitly derived and the consequences related to correlation functions are investigated. The connection with the standard formalism and the loopwise expansions for quantum operators and anomalies in Sp(2) approach are analyzed .
متن کاملDual BRST Symmetry in QED
We discuss local and covariant dual BRST symmetry and its consequences in two-dimensional quantum electrodynamics (QED). With the help of BRSTand dual BRST charges, we explore the BRST cohomology of physical states in the quantum Hilbert space. The algebra between conserved and nilpotent BRSTand dual BRST charges leads to the existence of a BRST-extended Casimir operator. The Hodge decompositio...
