Abstract

We propose a massive Yang-Mills model blessed with both physical unitarity and renormalizability without Higgs particles. This is achieved by a novel nonlinear but local transformation from the original fields in the Curci-Ferrari model to the massive vector field with the spin one, which has the correct physical degrees of freedom and invariant under an extended BRST transformation. We clarify the reason for failures of the preceding attempts and check the physical unitarity in perturbation theory.
