Odd Scalar Curvature in Anti-Poisson Geometry
Igor A. Batalin, Klaus Bering
Recent works have revealed that the recipe for field-antifield quantization of Lagrangian gauge theories can be considerably relaxed when it comes to choosing a path integral measu…
Odd Scalar Curvature in Field-Antifield Formalism
Igor A. Batalin, Klaus Bering
We consider the possibility of adding a Grassmann-odd function νto the odd Laplacian. Requiring the total Δoperator to be nilpotent leads to a differential condition for ν, which i…
Reducible Gauge Algebra of BRST-Invariant Constraints
I. A. Batalin, K. Bering
We show that it is possible to formulate the most general first-class gauge algebra of the operator formalism by only using BRST-invariant constraints. In particular, we extend a p…
Product of Boundary Distributions
K. Bering
1) We identify new parameter branches for the ultra-local boundary Poisson bracket in d spatial dimension with a (d-1)-dimensional spatial boundary. There exist 2^{r(r-1)/2} r-dime…
A Note on Non-Locality and Ostrogradski's Construction
K. Bering
We consider the Hamiltonian treatment of non-local theories and Ostrogradski's formalism. This has recently also been discussed by Woodard (hep-th/0006207) and by Gomis, Kamimura a…
