GAUGE FIXING IN EXTENDED PHASE-SPACE AND PATH-INTEGRAL QUANTIZATION OF SYSTEMS WITH 2ND CLASS CONSTRAINTS

RESTUCCIA, A; STEPHANY, J

Abstract

A new formulation of dynamical systems with second class constraints as pure gauge theories in an enlarged phase space is presented. The BRST invariant effective action for the gauge invariant version of the system is constructed. The explicit reduction on the path integral to the original phase space variables is done. Application to topologically massive electrodynamics in 3D is briefly discussed.
