Noether's variational theorem II and the BV formalism

英文摘要：

We review the basics of the Lagrangian approach to field theory and recast Noether's Second Theorem formulated in her language of dependencies using a slight modernization of terminology and notation. We then present the Cattaneo-Felder sigma model and work out the Noether identities or dependencies for this model. We review the description of the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism and show explicitly how the anti-ghosts encode the Noether identities in this example.
