Unitary Issues in Some Higher Derivative Field Theories

  • Manuel Asorey,

14 February 2018

We analyze the unitarity properties of higher derivative quantum field theories which are free of ghosts and ultraviolet singularities. We point out that in spite of the absence of ghosts most of these theories are not unitary. This result confirms t...
