Using two different methods inspired by duality transformations we present the equivalence between effective Lagrangians for massive vector mesons using a vector field and an antisymmetric tensor field. This completes the list of explicit field transformations between the various effective Lagrangian methods to describe massive vector and axial vector mesons. Our method automatically generates the point-like terms needed for off-shell equivalence.

A gauge invariant theory of massive vector mesons, formulated by Freedman and Townsend, is quantized using the Hamiltonian theory for reducible constrained systems of Batalin, Fradkin, and Vilkovisky. The effective action is Lorentz covariant in the gauge in which we work. All propagators have an ultraviolet behaviour that is consistent with power-counting renormalizability. We take this formulation of the Freedman–Townsend model to be consistent with unitarity.

We examine a model for massive vector mesons in four dimensions proposed by Freedman and Townsend, where the masses for non-Abelian vector gauge fields are generated without symmetry breaking through a gauge invariant coupling to anti-symmetric tensor fields. The model is quantized using the formalism of Batalin and Vilkovisky. While the Abelian version immediately gives a renormalizable model for massive vector fields, it is shown that in the non-Abelian case the addition of an extra gauge invariant term in the initial Lagrangian leads to an ultraviolet behavior consistent with power-counting renormalizability.
