On interacting non-Abelian antisymmetric tensor field models
arXiv:2607.12798
The paper analyzes the gauge structure of interacting antisymmetric tensor field models obtained via dimensional reduction on a group manifold, showing that the levels of gauge reducibility in the interacting theories match those of the corresponding free theories.
Abstract
We study the gauge structure of interacting antisymmetric tensor field models obtained by the dimensional reduction on a group manifold. In such models a dimensionful parameter related to the size of the compact manifold plays the role of a coupling constant. We focus on open issues of reducibility of the gauge transformations in these theories and show that stages of reducibility of the interacting models coincide with ones of corresponding free counterparts.
