Slavnov-Taylor Identities in Spontaneously Broken Non-Abelian Effective Gauge Theories

Abstract

We study the solution to the Slavnov-Taylor (ST) identities in spontaneously broken effective gauge theories for a non-Abelian gauge group. The procedure to extract the $\beta$-functions of the theory in the presence of (generalized) non-polynomial field redefinitions is elucidated.
