Description:
Author(s): Nirmalendu Acharyya, A. P. Balachandran, Verónica Errasti Díez, P. N. Bala Subramanian, and Sachindeo Vaidya In manifolds with spatial boundary, BRST formalism can be used to quantize gauge theories. We show that, in a U ( 1 ) gauge theory, only a subset of all the boundary conditions allowed by the self-adjointness of the Hamiltonian preserves BRST symmetry. Hence, the theory can be quantized using BRST form… [Phys. Rev. D 94, 085026] Published Thu Oct 27, 2016
