- | During the last few years various authors have suggested to elevate the requirement of BRS-invariance to the level of a guiding principle for constructing gauge theories [1]. This leads directly to a theory involving ghosts. As a result of dimensional regularization, it is known that BRS invariance survives quantization to any order in perturbation theory [2 ]. | + | During the last few years **various authors have suggested to elevate the requirement of BRS-invariance to the level of a guiding principle for constructing gauge theories** [1].
