On a Multisymplectic Formulation of the Classical BRST symmetry for First Order Field Theories Part I: Algebraic Structures

Abstract

We describe a new algebraic multisymplectic formulation of the classical BRST symmetry. The analogue of Marsden-Weinstein reduction for multisymplectic manifolds is described. We then give a homological description of Multisymplectic Marsden-Weinstein reduction.
