INDEFINITE METRIC IN QUANTUM FIELD THEORY

Journal Article · · Nuovo Cimento (Italy) Divided into Nuovo Cimento A and Nuovo Cimento B
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02911184· OSTI ID:4055069

The quantization of field theory by introduction of an indefinite metric is discussed. A mathematical introduction to the properties of a vector space with an indefinite metric is presented. The method for obtaining a theory with indefinite metric is described. The ghost-state contributions appearing in the spectral representation of the propagators were studied. (M.C.G.)
