Yang-mills theory without gauge fixing

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

It is pointed out that the Yang-Mills theory can be quantized without fixing the gauge and the Feynman rule for the perturbation is established. This gauge-nonfixing method may become important for the calculation of the off-shell amplitudes.

Riassunto

Si fa notare il fatto che la teoria di Yang-Mills può essere quantizzata senza fissare il gauge e si stabilisce la regola di Feynman per la perturbazione. Questo metodo a gauge non fissato può diventare importante per il calcolo delle ampiezze al di fuori dello strato.
