Quantum Determinism for Free Vector Bosons in 3 Dimensions

High Energy Physics - Theory 2010-02-03 v1

Abstract

We apply 't Hooft's deterministic quantum mechanics approach to free vector bosons in three dimensions and check Lorentz invariance. This approach does not work for the conformal group, for free bosons in two dimensions. This presents a technical difficulty for constructing a ``deterministic string theory''.
