Finite field-dependent BRST symmetry for ABJM theory in $\mathcal{N}=1$ superspace

Abstract

In this paper we analyse the ABJM theory in $\mathcal{N}=1$ superspace. Firstly we study the linear and non-linear BRST transformations for the ABJM theory. Then we derive the finite field dependent version of these BRST (FFBRST) transformations. Further we show that such FFBRST transformations relate the generating functional in linear gauge to the generating functional in the non-linear gauge of ABJM theory.
