First-Class Approaches to Massive 2-Forms
arXiv:1001.5146 · doi:10.1142/S0217751X10047932
Abstract
Massive 2-forms are analyzed from the point of view of the Hamiltonian quantization using the gauge-unfixing approach and respectively the Batalin--Fradkin method. Both methods finally output the manifestly Lorentz covariant path integral for 1- and 2-forms with Stueckelberg coupling.
