BRST quantization of matrix models with constraints and two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on the cylinder
Abstract
Description
BRST quantization of the one-dimensional constrained matrix model which describes two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on the cylinder is performed. Classical and quantum BRST generators and BRST-invariant hamiltonians are constructed. Evolution operator is expressed in terms of BRST path integral. Advantages of the BRST quantization over the reduced phase space approach leading to the theory of $N$ free fermions are discussed.
