Constrained Dynamical Systems

We introduce the notion of finite BRST–anti-BRST transformations for constrained dynamical systems in the generalized Hamiltonian formalism, both global and field-dependent, with a doublet λa, a = 1, 2, of anticommuting Grassmann parameters and find explicit Jacobians corresponding to these changes of variables in the path integral. It turns out that the finite transformations are quadratic in their parameters. Exactly as in the case of finite field-dependent BRST–anti-BRST transformations for the Yang–Mills vacuum functional in the Lagrangian formalism examined in our previous paper [arXiv:1405.0790 [hep-th]], special field-dependent BRST–anti-BRST transformations with functionally-dependent parameters λa= ∫ dt(saΛ), generated by a finite even-valued function Λ(t) and by the anticommuting generators saof BRST–anti-BRST transformations, amount to a precise change of the gauge-fixing function for arbitrary constrained dynamical systems. This proves the independence of the vacuum functional under such transformations. We derive a new form of the Ward identities, depending on the parameters λaand study the problem of gauge dependence. We present the form of transformation parameters which generates a change of the gauge in the Hamiltonian path integral, evaluate it explicitly for connecting two arbitrary Rξ-like gauges in the Yang–Mills theory and establish, after integration over momenta, a coincidence with the Lagrangian path integral [arXiv:1405.0790 [hep-th]], which justifies the unitarity of the S-matrix in the Lagrangian approach.

AbstractWe study special Lagrangian fibrations of SU(3)-manifolds, not necessarily torsion-free. In the case where the fiber is a unimodular Lie group G, we decompose such SU(3)-structures into triples of solder 1-forms, connection 1-forms and equivariant 3 × 3 positive-definite symmetric matrix-valued functions on principal G-bundles over 3-manifolds. As applications, we describe regular parts of G2-manifolds that admit Lagrangian-type 3-dimensional group actions by constrained dynamical systems on the spaces of the triples in the cases of G = T3 and SO(3).
