Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin treatment of collective coordinates

Abstract
The quantification procedure that is associated with the names of Becchi, Rouet, Stora, and Tyutin is applied to many-body problems which are expressed in a system of coordinates that undergo time-dependent transformations. A systematic way to treat both Abelian and non-Abelian transformations is presented. Only conventional algebraic techniques are used in this treatment.
