abstract

Higher order conservation laws, associated with conserved antisymmetric tensors $j^{\mu_1 ... \mu_k}$ fulfilling $\partial_{\mu_1} j^{\mu_1 ... \mu_k} \approx 0$, are shown to define rigid symmetries of the master equation. They thus lead to independent Ward identities which are explicitly derived.

  1. Symmetries Beget Symmetries: Ghostly Higher-Form Symmetries and the Descent Equation

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Using the BV formalism, the authors show that descent equations turn ordinary higher-form symmetries into families of 'ghostly' symmetries generated by currents of nonzero ghost number.
