INTEGRATION MEASURE AND EXTENDED BRST-COVARIANT QUANTIZATION [PDF]
We propose an extended BRST-invariant Lagrangian quantization scheme of general gauge theories based on explicit realization of the "modified triplectic algebra" that was announced in our previous investigation (hep-th/0104189). The algebra includes, besides the specific odd operators Va appearing in the triplectic formalism, also the odd operators Ua

Pseudoscalar Field as a Possible Candidate for Phantom Field
We demonstrate the existence of a single pseudoscalar (PS) field in the mathematically backed and parity‐preserving modifications of the standard Stückelberg formalism (SSF) in the context of the Lagrangian formulation of the (i) two (1 + 1)‐dimensional (2D) massive Abelian 1‐form gauge theory, (ii) three (2 + 1)‐dimensional (3D) massive Abelian 2‐form

BRST–BFV QUANTIZATION AND THE SCHWINGER ACTION PRINCIPLE [PDF]
We introduce an operator version of the BRST–BFV effective action for arbitrary systems with first class constraints. Using the Schwinger action principle we calculate the propagators corresponding to: (i) the parametrized nonrelativistic free particle, (ii) the relativistic free particle and (iii) the spinning relativistic free particle.

Open String Renormalization Group Flow as a Field Theory
Abstract This article shows that the integral flow‐lines of the RG‐flow of open string theory can be interpreted as the solitons of a Hořova–Lifshitz sigma‐model of open membranes. The authors argue that the effective background description of this model implies the g‐theorem of open string theory.

BRST-BV quantization of gauge theories with global symmetries
We consider the general gauge theory with a closed irreducible gauge algebra possessing the non-anomalous global (super)symmetry in the case when the gauge fixing procedure violates the global invariance of classical action.

Abstract The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of Hadamard states for the Maxwell equations on any globally hyperbolic spacetime. This will be achieved by introducing a new gauge fixing condition, the Cauchy radiation gauge, that will allow to suppress all the unphysical degrees of freedom. The key ingredient for achieving this gauge is a new

We present the BRST cohomologies of a class of constraint (super) Lie algebras as detour complexes. By giving physical interpretations to the components of detour complexes as gauge invariances, Bianchi identities and equations of motion we obtain a large class of new gauge theories.

The quantum theory of Chern-Simons supergravity
We consider AdS 3 N-extended Chern-Simons supergravity (à la Achucarro-Townsend) and we study its gauge symmetries. We promote those gauge symmetries to a BRST symmetry and we perform its quantization by choosing suitable gauge-fixings.
