摘要
Recently (in a series of papers) we have studied the vector Schwinger model with a photon mass term describing one-space one-time dimensional electrodynamics with mass-less fermions in the so-called standard regularization. In the present work, we study this model in the Faddeevian regularization (FR). This theory in the FR is seen to be gauge-non-invariant (GNI). We study the Hamiltonian and path integral quantization of this GNI theory. We then construct a gauge-invariant (GI) theory corresponding to this GNI theory using the Stueckelberg mechanism and recover the physical content of the original GNI theory from the newly constructed GI theory under some special gauge-choice. Further, we study the Hamiltonian, path integral and Becchi-Rouet-Stora and Tyutin formulations of the newly constructed GI theory under appropriate gauge-fixing conditions.
