Residual gauge-invariance in a massive Lorentz-violating extension of QED
arXiv:2105.13759 · doi:10.1155/2022/7396078
Abstract
We reassess an alternative CPT-odd electrodynamics obtained from a Palatini-like procedure. Starting from a more general situation, we analyze the physical consistency of the model for different values of the parameter introduced in the mass tensor. We show that there is a residual gauge-invariance in the model if the local transformation is taken to vary only in the direction of the Lorentz-breaking vector. This residual gauge-invariance can be extended to all models whose only source of gauge symmetry breaking is such a mass term.
