Application of the Faddeev-Jackiw formalism to the gauged WZW model

Abstract

The two-flavor Wess-Zumino model coupled to electromagnetism is treated as a constraint system using the Faddeev-Jackiw method. Expanding into series of powers of the pion fields and keeping terms up to second and third order we obtain Coulomb- gauge Lagrangeans containing non-local terms.
