Higher Covariant Derivative Pauli - Villars Regularization for Gauge
نویسنده
چکیده
The combined method of Higher Covariant Derivatives and Pauli-Villars regularization to regularize pure Yang-Mills theories is formulated in the framework of Batalin and Vilkovisky. However, BRS invariance is broken by this method and suitable counterterms should be added to restore it. The 1-loop counterterm is presented. Contrary to the scheme of Slavnov, this method is regularizing and leads to consistent renormalization group functions, which are the same as those found by other regularization schemes.

Higher covariant derivative Pauli - Villars regularization does not lead to a consistent QCD
We compute the beta function at one loop for Yang-Mills theory using as regulator the combination of higher covariant derivatives and Pauli-Villars determinants proposed by Faddeev and Slavnov. This regularization prescription has the appealing feature that it is manifestly gauge invariant and essentially four-dimensional. It happens however that the one-loop coefficient in the beta function th...
متن کاملConsistency of the regularization of gauge theories by high covariant derivatives.
We show that regularization of gauge theories by higher covariant derivatives and gauge invariant Pauli-Villars regulators is a consistent method if the Pauli-Villars vector fields are considered in a covariant α–gauge with α 6= 0 and a given auxiliary preregularization is introduced in order to uniquely define the regularization. The limit α → 0 in the regulating Pauli-Villars fields is pathol...
متن کاملPath Integral Evaluation of Non-Abelian Anomaly and Pauli–Villars–Gupta Regularization
When the path integral method of anomaly evaluation is applied to chiral gauge theories, two different types of gauge anomaly, i.e., the consistent form and the covariant form, appear depending on the regularization scheme for the Jacobian factor. We clarify the relation between the regularization scheme and the Pauli–Villars–Gupta (PVG) type Lagrangian level regularization. The conventional PV...
متن کاملGeneralized Pauli-Villars Regularization and the Covariant Form of Anomalies
In the generalized Pauli-Villars regularization of chiral gauge theory proposed by Frolov and Slavnov , it is important to specify how to sum the contributions from an infinite number of regulator fields. It is shown that an explicit sum of contributions from an infinite number of fields in anomaly-free gauge theory essentially results in a specific choice of regulator in the past formulation o...
متن کاملGauge Invariant Pauli-Villars Regularization of Chiral Fermions
We extend the idea of the generalized Pauli-Villars regularization of Frolov and Slavnov and analyze the general structure of the regularization scheme. The gauge anomaly-free condition emerges in a simple way in the scheme, and, under the standard prescription for the momentum assignment, the Pauli-Villars Lagrangian provides a gauge invariant regularization of chiral fermions in arbitrary ano...
