Coordinate-Free Quantization of Second-Class Constraints

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

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.
