Description

In this talk I will outline how the Batalin-Vilkoviski (BV) formalism can be used to quantize gauge theories and effective quantum gravity in Lorentzian signature, in the framework of locally covariant QFT. I will also present recent results on relations of this framework to the approach of Costello that operates in Euclidean signature.
