BRST structure of polynomial Poisson algebras
Abstract
Description
The BRST structure of polynomial Poisson algebras is investigated. It is shown that Poisson algebras provide non trivial models where the full BRST recursive procedure is needed. Quadratic Poisson algebras may already be of arbitrarily high rank. Explicit examples are provided, for which the first terms of the BRST generator are given. The calculations are cumbersome but purely algorithmic, and have been treated by means of the computer algebra system REDUCE. Our analysis is classical ($=$ non quantum) throughout.
