Abstract

We find an explicit form for the Jacobian of arbitrary field-dependent BRST transformations in Yang–Mills theory. For the functional-integral representation of the (gauge-fixed) Yang–Mills vacuum functional, such transformations merely amount to a precise change in the gauge-fixing functional. This proves the independence of the vacuum functional under any field-dependent BRST transformation. We also give a formula for the transformation parameter functional which generates a prescribed change of gauge and evaluate it for connecting two arbitrary Rξ gauges.
