Covariant QED without indefinite metric

Abstract

We construct for the linearized Higgs model a representation of the field operators in a Hilbert space H with the following features: (1) H has a positive definite metric but is nonseparable. (2) The vacuum is gauge invariant. (3) The gauge variant operators exist only in their exponentiated form as unitaries. (4) There is a subspace of H where A{sub {mu}}`{sup {mu}} is represented by 0. (authors).
