Irreducible Hamiltonian BRST symmetry for reducible first-class systems

Abstract

An irreducible Hamiltonian BRST quantization method for reducible first-class systems is proposed. The general theory is illustrated on a two-stage reducible model, the link with the standard reducible BRST treatment being also emphasized.
