The antighost equation in N = 1 super-Yang-Mills theories

Abstract: The antighost equation valid for usual gauge theories in the Landau gauge, is generalized to the case of N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories in a supersymmetric version of the Landau gauge. This equation, which expresses the nonrenormalization of the Faddeev-Popov ghost eld, plays an important role in the proof of the nonrenormalization theorems for the chiral anomalies.

“…(14). Therefore, action (20) is suitable to study the symmetry content in terms of Ward identities, including the nonlinear ones. As a last remark before discussing the Ward identities, we would like to call attention to the fact that the BRST operator, s, as well as the Faddeev-Popov ghosts are Grassmann variables and carry a quantum number named ghost number (g#).…”
