Brst Charge

A previously proposed generalized BRST quantization on inner product spaces for second class constraints is further developed through applications. This BRST method involves a conserved generalized BRST charge Q which is not nilpotent, Q2≠0, but which satisfies Q=δ+δ†, δ2=0, and by means of which physical states are obtained from the projection δ| ph >=δ†| ph >=0. A simple model is analyzed in detail from which some basic properties and necessary ingredients are extracted. The method is then applied to a massive vector field. An effective theory is derived which is close to that of the Stückelberg model. However, since the scalar field here is introduced in order to have inner product solutions, a massive Yang–Mills theory with polynomial interaction terms might be possible to cosntruct.

The Laplace Transform

The Lagrangian of a (1 + 1)-dimensional massive vector field is quantized. Since it gives the system with second-class constraints, following Batalin and Fradkin, we introduce additional fields. Although the Stueckelberg field is usually introduced, we can use a pseudoscalar field instead. The duality between them is discussed. We show that the Stueckelberg mass term is equivalent to the Laplace transform of the Lagrangian of the gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model.

To confine vector bosons in the four dimensional sector of a domain wall spacetime, we propose a mechanism in which the interaction among vectors is propagated via the self-interaction of the scalar wall.  In the process, the vector acquires an asymptotic mass, defined by the bulk cosmological constant, and it ends up coupled to the wall by the tension of the brane. The mechanism is applied on the Randall Sundrum scenario and regular versions of it, and on singular domain walls. In any case, the  electrostatic potential between two charged particles is defined by both the vector state attached to the wall and a continuous tower of massive vector states that propagate freely along the scenario's extra dimension.
