Effective Action of Composite Fields for General Gauge Theories in BLT-Covariant Formalism

The gauge dependence of the effective action of composite fields for general gauge theories in the framework of the quantization method by Batalin, Lavrov and Tyutin is studied. The corresponding Ward identities are obtained. The variation of composite fields effective action is found in terms of new set of operators depending on composite field. The theorem of the on-shell gauge fixing independence for the effective action of composite fields in such formalism is proved. brief discussion of gravitational-vector induced interaction for Maxwell theory with composite fields is given.Comment: Typos corrected.

Representation of a gauge field via intrinsic "BRST" operator

We show that there exists a representation of a matrix valued gauge field via intrinsic "BRST" operator assigned to matrix valued generators of a gauge algebra. In this way, we reproduce the standard formulation of the ordinary Yang - Mills theory. In the case of a generating quasigroup/groupoid, we give a natural counterpart to the Yang - Mills action. The latter counterpart does also apply as to the most general case of an involution for matrix-valued gauge generators.Comment: 15 pages, no figures, Section 6 extended with (6.14), (6.15); v3: Section 7 added, minor corrections; v4: Section 4, minor corrections; v5: formula (4.11) modifie
