The BV formalism applied to classical gravity — •Katarzyna Rejzner — 2. Institut für Theoretische Physik, Hamburg, Deutschland

I will give an interpretation of the BV operator which is based on infinite dimensional differential geometry. Using this mathematically precise formulation one can apply the BV method in the functional approach to classical and quantum field theory. As an example I will discuss general relativity in the framework of locally covariant field theory.
