Abstract
- We have embedded the nonlinear sigma model in a non-Abelian gauge theory. After that as a first class-system, it was quantized using two different approaches: the functional Schrödinger method and the nonlocal field-antifield procedure. First, the quantization was performed with the functional Schrödinger method, for , obtaining the wave functionals for the ground and excited states. Second, using the well-known BV formalism, we have computed the one-loop anomaly. This result shows that the classical gauge symmetries, which appear due to the conversion via BFFT method, are broken at the quantum level. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
