Abstract:We embed the Wess-Zumino (WZ) model in a wider superspace than the one described by chiral and anti-chiral superfields.1. There is a systematic and interesting formalism for embedding, developed by Batalin, Fradkin, Fradkina, and Tyutin (BFFT) [1], where theories with second-class constraints [2] are transformed into more general (gauge) theories where all constraints become first-class. The transformation of constraints from second to first-class is achieved after extending the phase space by means of auxilia… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
