A nilpotent symmetry of quantum gauge theories
نویسنده
چکیده
I construct a nilpotent symmetry of gauge theories, similar to the BecchiRouet-Stora-Tyutin symmetry. This symmetry depends on the gauge-fixing fermion, and for linear gauges can be elevated to a symmetry of the quantum theory and used in the construction of the quantum effective action.

Nilpotent Symmetry Invariance In Superfield Formalism: 1-Form (Non-)Abelian Gauge Theories
We capture the well-known off-shell as well as the on-shell nilpotent BecchiRouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry transformations for the Lagrangian densities of the four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) 1-form (non-)Abelian gauge theories within the framework of the superfield formalism. In particular, we provide the geometrical interpretations for (i) the above nilpotent symmetry invarianc...

متن کاملGauge and BRST Generators for Space-Time Non-commutative U(1) Theory
The Hamiltonian (gauge) symmetry generators of non-local (gauge) theories are presented. The construction is based on the d + 1 dimensional space-time formulation of d dimensional non-local theories. The procedure is applied to U(1) space-time non-commutative gauge theory. In the Hamiltonian formalism the Hamiltonian and the gauge generator are constructed. The nilpotent BRST charge is also obt...
