Abstract
A gauge invariant theory of massive vector mesons, formulated by Freedman and Townsend, is quantized using the Hamiltonian theory for reducible constrained systems of Batalin, Fradkin, and Vilkovisky. The effective action is Lorentz covariant in the gauge in which we work. All propagators have an ultraviolet behaviour that is consistent with power-counting renormalizability. We take this formulation of the Freedman–Townsend model to be consistent with unitarity.
