Higher form Yang-Mills as higher BFYM theories
arXiv:2109.13443 · doi:10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-11020-6
Abstract
The YM theory has been generalized to 2YM and 3YM theories. Similarly, we generalize the BFYM theory to "2BFYM" and "3BFYM" theories. Then, we show that these higher BFYM theories can give the formulations of the corresponding higher form YM theories. Finally, we study the gauge symmetries of these higher BFYM theories.
