Gauge Independence in a Higher-Order Lagrangian Formalism via Change of Variables in the Path Integral
arXiv:1408.5121 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2015.01.005
Abstract
In this paper we work out the explicit form of the change of variables that reproduces an arbitrary change of gauge in a higher-order Lagrangian formalism.
