Abstract

The Stueckelberg term for the gauge-non-invariant, gauged Floreanini-Jackiw action due to Harada which describes a chiral Schwinger model in terms of chiral bosonization, is constructed, and the Hamiltonian and BRST formulations of the resulting gauge-invariant theory (obtained by the inclusion of the Stueckelberg term) are investigated.
