Topological Field

We discuss the BRST cohomology and exhibit a connection between the Hodge decomposition theorem and the topological properties of a two-dimensional free non-Abelian gauge theory (having no interaction with matter fields). The topological nature of this theory is encoded in the vanishing of the Laplacian operator when equations of motion are exploited. We obtain two sets of topological invariants with respect to BRST and co-BRST charges on the two-dimensional compact manifold and show that the Lagrangian density of the theory can be expressed as the sum of terms that are BRST and co-BRST invariants. Thus, this theory captures together some of the salient features of both Witten and Schwarz type of topological field theories.

Deformation Procedure

Consistent interactions that can be added to a two-dimensional, free Abelian gauge theory comprising a special class of BF-type models and a collection of vector fields are constructed from the deformation of the solution to the master equation based on specific cohomological techniques. The deformation procedure modifies the Lagrangian action, the gauge transformations, as well as the accompanying algebra of the interacting model.

Special Case

After reviewing electrodynamics as the special case of an abelian gauge theory, this local symmetry is generalised to non-abelian gauge theories. The curvature of space-time is introduced as analogue of the non-abelian field-strength. Non-abelian gauge theories are quantised using the Fadeev–Popov method and the resulting Feynman rules are derived.

Lie Algebraic Structure

The Hamiltonian of a nonrelativistic particle coupled to non-Abelian gauge fields is defined to construct a non-Abelian gauge theory. The Hamiltonian which includes isospin as a dynamical variable dictates the dynamics of the particle and isospin according to the Poisson bracket that incorporates the Lie algebraic structure of isospin. The generalized Poisson bracket allows us to derive Wong’s equations, which describe the dynamics of isospin, and the homogeneous (sourceless) equations for non-Abelian gauge fields by following Feynman’s proof of the homogeneous Maxwell equations.It is shown that the derivation of the homogeneous equations for non-Abelian gauge fields using the generalized Poisson bracket does not require that Wong’s equations be defined in the time-axial gauge, which was used with the commutation relation. The homogeneous equations derived by using the commutation relation are not Galilean and Lorentz invariant. However, by using the generalized Poisson bracket, it can be shown that the homogeneous equations are not only Galilean and Lorentz invariant but also gauge independent. In addition, the quantum ordering ambiguity that arises from using the commutation relation can be avoided when using the Poisson bracket.From the homogeneous equations, which define the “electric field” and “magnetic field” in terms of non-Abelian gauge fields, we construct the gauge and Lorentz invariant Lagrangian density and derive the inhomogeneous equations that describe the interaction of non-Abelian gauge fields with a particle.
