Non-Abelian BFFT embedding, Schrödinger quantization and the anomaly of the O(N) nonlinear sigma model

E. M. C. Abreu, J. Ananias Neto, W. Oliveira +1

We embed the O(N) nonlinear sigma model in a non-Abelian gauge theory. As a first class system, it is quantized using two different approaches: the functional Schrödinger method an…
