A new approach to anomalous axial vector field theory

Abstract

In an earlier paper, it has been shown that the ultra violet divergence structure of anomalous [Formula: see text] axial vector gauge model in the stochastic quantization scheme is different from that in the conventional quantum field theory. Also, it has been shown that the model is expected to be renormalizable. Based on the operator formalism of the stochastic quantization, a new approach to anomalous [Formula: see text] axial vector gauge model is proposed. The operator formalism provides a convenient framework for analysis of ultra violet divergences, but the computations in a realistic model become complicated. In this paper a new approach to do computations in the model is formulated directly in four dimensions. The suggestions put forward here will lead to simplification in the study of applications of the axial vector gauge theory, as well as those of other similar models.
