Abstract:
The recently introduced quantum antibracket is further generalized such that the odd operator Q can be arbitrary. We give exact formulas for quantum antibrackets of arbitrary higher orders and for their generalized Jacobi identities. We review applications of the quantum antibrackets to the BV and BFV–BRST quantizations and include some new aspects.
