Couplings between generalized gauge fields

چکیده
We analyze the BRST field-antifield construction for generalized gauge fields consisting of massless mixed representations of the Lorentz Group and we calculate all the strictly gauge invariant interactions between them. All these interactions are higher derivative terms constructed out from the derivatives of the curl of field strength. PACS: 2.20.-a, 11.15.-q, 11.10.Kk, 11.25.-w

A Yang–Mills Theory in Loop Space and Generalized Chapline–Manton Coupling
We consider a Yang–Mills theory in loop space with an affine Lie gauge group. The Chapline–Manton coupling, the coupling between Yang–Mills fields and an abelian antisymmetric tensor field of the second rank via the Chern– Simons term, is systematically derived within the framework of the Yang–Mills theory. The generalized Chapline–Manton couplings, the couplings among nonabelian tensor fields ...

The y deformed and generalized orientifold planes that this paper consider have SO(2k) Yang-Mills gauge fi...
متن کاملPerturbative gauge invariance: the electroweak theory
The concept of perturbative gauge invariance formulated exclusively by means of asymptotic fields is generalized to massive gauge fields. Applying it to the electroweak theory leads to a complete fixing of couplings of scalar and ghost fields and of the coupling to leptons, in agreement with the standard theory. The W/Z mass ratio is also determined, as well as the chiral character of the fermi...
