TWO APPROACHES TO ANOMALY-FREE QUANTIZATION OF GENERALLY COVARIANT SYSTEMS ON AN EXAMPLE OF A TWO-DIMENSIONAL STRING S.N.Vergeles
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we discuss two approaches to anomaly-free quantization of a two-dimensional string. The first approach is based on the canonical Dirac prescription of quantization of degenerated systems. At the second approach we ”weaken” the Dirac quantization conditions requiring the solving of first class constraints only in the sense of mean values. At both approaches there are no states with the indefinite metrics.

Worldsheet Covariant Path Integral Quantization of Strings
We discuss a covariant functional integral approach to the quantization of the bosonic string. In contrast to approaches relying on non-covariant operator regularizations, interesting operators here are true tensor objects with classical transformation laws, even on target spaces where the theory has a Weyl anomaly. Since no implicit noncovariant gauge choices are involved in the definition of ...
متن کاملSpherically Symmetric Solutions in a New Braneworld Massive Gravity Theory
In this paper, a combination of the braneworld scenario and covariant de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive Gravity theory is proposed. In this setup, the five-dimensional bulk graviton is considered to be massive. The five dimensional nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity theory affects the 3-brane dynamics and the gravitational potential on the brane. Following the solutions with spherical s...
متن کاملCovariant quantization of membrane dynamics
A Lorentz covariant quantization of membrane dynamics is defined, which also leaves unbroken the full three dimensional diffeomorphism invariance of the membrane. This makes it possible to understand the reductions to string theory directly in terms of the Poisson brackets and constraints of the theories. Two approaches to the covariant quantization are studied, Dirac quantization and a quantiz...
متن کاملString theory in a vertex operator representation: a simple model for testing loop quantum gravity
The loop quantum gravity technique is applied to the free bosonic string. A Hilbert space similar to loop space in loop quantum gravity as well as representations of diffeomorphism and hamiltonian constraints on it are constructed. The string in this representation can be viewed as a set of interacting relativistic particles each carrying a certain momentum. Two different regularizations of the...
متن کاملA diffeomorphism anomaly in every dimension
Field-theoretic pure gravitational anomalies only exist in 4k+2 dimensions. However, canonical quantization of non-field-theoretic systems may give rise to diffeomorphism anomalies in any number of dimensions. I present a simple example, where a higher-dimensional generalization of the Virasoro algebra arises upon quantization. The Polyakov action in string theory is nothing but 1+1-dimensional...
