Duality and massive gauge-invariant theories

Abstract

It is shown that “(Formula presented)” theory in 3+1 dimensions with a Kalb-Ramond field is related by Buscher’s duality transformation to two different versions of massive gauge-invariant spin-one theories of Stückelberg-type, one involving vector and scalar fields and the other antisymmetric tensor and vector fields. A similar construction for massive spin-zero theory is also shown. The implication of this equivalence to the five-dimensional theories from which these theories can be obtained is discussed. © 1998 The American Physical Society.
