Abstract
The Hamiltonian formulation for the Yang-Mills Lagrangian with higher derivatives is constructed. Canonical quantization of the theory in a Coulomb gauge is performed. It is shown that the generating functional of the Green's function obtained reduces to the form given by the Faddeev-Popov rules.
