Gauge theories with non-trivial backgrounds (1401.3625v1)
Published 15 Jan 2014 in hep-th, hep-lat, and hep-ph
Abstract: We review our most recent results in formulating gauge theories in the presence of a background field on the basis of symmetry arguments only. In particular we show how one can gain full control over the dependence on the background field of the effective action, and how the so-called background field method emerges naturally from the requirement of invariance under the BRST and antiBRST symmetries.
