Gauge Symmetries of the Master Action

arXiv:hep-th/9804156 · doi:10.1063/1.532835

Abstract

We study the geometry of the Lagrangian Batalin--Vilkovisky theory on an antisymplectic manifold. We show that gauge symmetries of the BV-theory are essentially the symmetries of an even symplectic structure on the stationary surface of the master action.
