Abstract: We revisit Khudaverdian's geometric construction of an odd nilpotent operator Delta_E that sends semidensities to semidensities on an antisymplectic manifold. We find a local formula for the Delta_E operator in arbitrary coordinates and we discuss its connection to Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization.
