Abstract
A geometrical derivation of the Faddeev-Popov measure is presented. This derivation is valid in any gauge for a general class of gauge theories, including Yang-Mills theory, gravitation and non-linear sigma models, and can easily be generalized to include supersymmetric theories. We stress the role of a non-trivial, finite contribution to the effective action from the invariant measure on the orbit over each point in the physical configuration space.
