Improved Gauge-Unfixing Formalism through a Prototypical Second-Class System
Jorge Ananias Neto, Widervan de Deus Morais, Ronaldo Thibes
We contextualize the improved gauge-unfixing (GU) formalism within a rather general prototypical second-class system, obtaining a corresponding first-class equivalent description e…
New Forms of BRST Symmetry on a Prototypical First-Class System
Bhabani Prasad Mandal, Sumit Kumar Rai, Ronaldo Thibes
We scrutinize the many known forms of BRST symmetries, as well as some new ones, realized within a prototypical first-class system. Similarities and differences among ordinary BRST…
BFV quantization and BRST symmetries of the gauge invariant fourth-order Pais-Uhlenbeck oscillator
Bhabani Prasad Mandal, Vipul Kumar Pandey, Ronaldo Thibes
We perform the BFV-BRST quantization of the fourth-order Pais-Uhlenbeck oscillator (PUO). We show that although the PUO is not naturally constrained in the sense of Dirac-Bergmann,…
