متن کاملDeformation of Batalin-Vilkovisky Structures
A Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism is most general framework to construct consistent quantum field theories. Its mathematical structure is called a BatalinVilkovisky structure. First we explain rather mathematical setting of a BatalinVilkovisky formalism. Next, we consider deformation theory of a BatalinVilkovisky structure. Especially, we consider deformation of topological sigma models in any dim...
متن کاملDeformations of Batalin–vilkovisky Algebras
We show that a graded commutative algebra A with any square zero odd differential operator is a natural generalization of the Batalin–Vilkovisky algebra. While such an operator of order 2 defines a Lie algebra structure on A, an operator of an order higher than 2 (Koszul–Akman definition) leads to the structure of a strongly homotopy Lie algebra (L∞–algebra) on A. This allows us to give a defin...
متن کاملDeveloping the Covariant Batalin-vilkovisky Approach to String Theory
We investigate the variation of the string field action under changes of the string field vertices giving rise to different decompositions of the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces. We establish that any such change in the string action arises from a field transformation canonical with respect to the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) antibracket, and find the explicit form of the generator of the infinite...
متن کاملRenormalisation and the Batalin-vilkovisky Formalism
This paper gives a way to renormalise certain quantum field theories on compact manifolds. Examples include Yang-Mills theory (in dimension 4 only), Chern-Simons theory and holomorphic Chern-Simons theory. The method is within the framework of the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism. Chern-Simons theory is renormalised in a way respecting all symmetries (up to homotopy). This yields an invariant of sm...
