Abelian Subset of Second Class Constraints
We show that after mapping each element of a set of second class constraints to the surface of the other ones, half of them form a subset of abelian first class constraints. The explicit form of the map is obtained considering the most general Poisson structure. We also introduce a proper redefinition of second class constraints that makes their algebra symplectic. ∗e-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملCoordinate–Free Quantization of Second–Class Constraints
The conversion of second-class constraints into first-class constraints is used to extend the coordinate-free path integral quantization, achieved by a flat-space Brownian motion regularization of the coherent-state path integral measure, to systems with second-class constraints 1 Second-class constraints On performing the Legendre transformation for generalized velocities of a Lagrangian of a ...
متن کاملA Note on Abelian Conversion of Constraints
We show that for a system containing a set of general second class constraints which are linear in the phase space variables, the Abelian conversion can be obtained in a closed form and that the first class constraints generate a generalized shift symmetry. We study in detail the example of a general first order Lagrangian and show how the shift symmetry noted in the context of BV quantization ...
متن کاملSe p 20 07 Semidensities , Second - Class Constraints and Conversion in Anti - Poisson Geometry
We consider Khudaverdian's geometric version of a Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) operator ∆ E in the case of a degenerate anti-Poisson manifold. The characteristic feature of such an operator (aside from being a Grassmann-odd, nilpotent, second-order differential operator) is that it sends semi-densities to semidensities. We find a local formula for the ∆ E operator in arbitrary coordinates. As an imp...
متن کاملGhosts of ghosts for second class constraints
When one uses the Dirac bracket, second class constraints become first class. Hence, they are amenable to the BRST treatment characteristic of ordinary first class constraints. This observation is the starting point of a recent investigation by Batalin and Tyutin, in which all the constraints are put on the same footing. However, because second class constraints identically vanish as operators ...
