title: Gauge models in modified triplectic quantization
review text: Two of the authors and Gitman proposed the modified triplectic quantization [\textit{B. Geyer}, \textit{M. Gitman} and \textit{P. M. Lavrov}, Mod. Phys. Lett. A 14, 661-670 (1999) hereafter refered to as [1]]. In this paper, this quantization is applied to the Freedman-Townsend model of non-Abelian antisymmetric tensor fields, \(W_2\) gravity and 2D gravity with dynamical torsion. For these models, by using explicit solutions of generating equations, the vacuum functionals are constructed and the \(\text{Sp}(2)\)-invariant effective actions are determined. The corresponding transformations of the extended BRST symmetry are also obtained.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe method of \(\text{Sp}(2)\)-covariant quantization [\textit{I. A. Batalin}, \textit{P. M. Lavrov} and \textit{I. M. Tyutin}, J. Math. Phys. 31, 1487-1493 (1990; Zbl 0716.58035); ibid. 32, No. 2, 532-539 (1991; Zbl 0825.58063); ibid. 32, 2513-2521 (1991)] provides a realization of the extended BRST symmetry for general gauge theories. In the framework of the triplectic quantization [\textit{I. A. Batalin} and \textit{R. Marnelius}, Nucl. Phys. B 456, 521-539 (1996; Zbl 1002.81562)], the gauge-fixing part of the action in the functional integral is determined by generating equations formally similar to the equations that describe the quantum action. In [1], the system of generating equations is modified so that the classical action of a theory satisifes (in the limit \(\hbar\to 0\)) the generating equations for the quantum action \(W= W(\phi,\phi^*, \pi,\overline\phi)\), NEWLINE\[NEWLINE{1\over 2} (W, W)^a+ V^a W= i\hbar \Delta^a W.NEWLINE\]NEWLINE In the introduction, the generating equations for the gauge-fixing functional and vacuum functional of the modified triplectic formalism are also presented. In Sect. 2, the Freedman-Townsend model is investigated. This model is described by the action NEWLINE\[NEWLINES_{\text{cl}}(A^p_\mu, H^p_{\mu\nu})= \int d^4x\Biggl(-{1\over 4} \varepsilon^{\mu\nu\rho\sigma} F^p_{…
