Abstract

The Ohnuki-Kitakado (O-K) scheme of quantum mechanics on SDS^D embedded in RD+1R^{D+1} is investigated. Generators satisfying the O-K algebra are written down explicitly in term of the induced gauge potential. A direct method is developed to obtain the generators in covariant form. It is seen that there exists an induced gauge configuration which is trivial on SDS^D but might cause a nontrivial physical effect in RD+1R^{D+1}. The relation of the O-K scheme to extended objects such as the 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole is discussed.
