On the BRST quantization of chiral bosons

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 1988
The Siegel action for two right-moving chiral bosons can be BRST quantized. In the case in which their kinetic terms have opposite signs the momenta in the left-moving sector must be constrained to be zero. In this case the two chiral bosons can be described also by a quadratic action. There is no analogous BRST quantization for a single chiral boson.

Space-time BRST symmetries [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2004
Bearing in mind BV quantization of gauge gravitation theory, we extend general covariant transformations to the BRST ones.

Noncommutative Topological Half-flat Gravity

open access: yes, 2004
We formulate a noncommutative description of topological half-flat gravity in four dimensions. BRST symmetry of this topological gravity is deformed through a twisting of the usual BRST quantization of noncommutative gauge theories.

BRST quantization of Matrix Chern-Simons Theory [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2002
The BRST quantization of matrix Chern-Simons theory is carried out, the symmetries of the theory are analysed and used to constrain the form of the effective action.

Schwinger-Dyson equation for non-Lagrangian field theory

open access: yes, 2006
A method is proposed of constructing quantum correlators for a general gauge system whose classical equations of motion do not necessarily follow from the least action principle. The idea of the method is in assigning a certain BRST operator $\hat\Omega$

Non-Abelian Conversion and Quantization of Non-scalar Second-Class Constraints

open access: yes, 2005
We propose a general method for deformation quantization of any second-class constrained system on a symplectic manifold. The constraints determining an arbitrary constraint surface are in general defined only locally and can be components of a section ...

On the canonical formulation of gauge field theories and Poincaré transformations

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2021
We address the Hamiltonian formulation of classical gauge field theories while putting forward results some of which are not entirely new, though they do not appear to be well known.
