On Restricting First Order Form of Gauge Theories to One-Loop Order
F. T. Brandt, J. Frenkel, S. Martins-Filho +1
The first order form of the Yang-Mills and Einstein-Hilbert actions are quantized, and it is shown how Green's functions computed using the first and the second order form of these…

First order formulation of the Yang-Mills theory in a background field
F. T. Brandt, J. Frenkel, D. G. C. McKeon
The background gauge renormalization of the first order formulation of the Yang-Mills theory is studied by using the BRST identities. Together with the background symmetry, these i…

Renormalization of six-dimensional Yang-Mills theory in a background gauge field
F. T. Brandt, J. Frenkel, D. G. C. McKeon
Using the background field method, we study in a general covariant gauge the renormalization of the 6-dimensional Yang-Mills theory. This requires background gauge invariant counte…
