In a previous paper we provided a consistent quantization of open strings ending on D-branes with a background $B$ field. In this letter, we show that the same result can also be obtained using the more traditional method of Dirac's…
We apply the Dirac bracket quantization to open strings attached to branes in the presence of background antisymmetric field and recover an inherent noncommutativity in the internal coordinates of the brane.
In this article we show that boundary conditions can be treated as Lagrangian and Hamiltonian constraints. Using the Dirac method, we find that boundary conditions are equivalent to an infinite chain of second class constraints which is a…
The problem of an open string in background $B$-field is discussed. Using the discretized model in details we show that the system is influenced by infinite number of second class constraints. We interpret the allowed Fourier modes as the…
Consistent boundary Poisson structures for open string theory coupled to background $B$-field are considered using the new approach proposed in hep-th/0111005. It is found that there are infinitely many consistent Poisson structures, each…
A set of consistent Poisson brackets for an open string in generic spacetime background and NS-NS $B$-field is constructed. Upon quantization, this set of Poisson brackets lead to spacial \emph{commutative} $D$-branes at the string ends,…
We study Dirac commutators of canonical variables on D-branes with a constant Neveu-Schwarz 2-form field by using the Dirac constraint quantization method, and point out some subtleties appearing in previous works in analyzing constraint…
We show how to translate boundary conditions into constraints in the symplectic quantization method by an appropriate choice of generalized variables. This way the symplectic quantization of an open string attached to a brane in the…
We construct Poisson brackets at boundaries of open strings and membranes with constant background fields which are compatible with their boundary conditions. The boundary conditions are treated as primary constraints which give infinitely…
Dirac's conjecture, that secondary first-class constraints generate transformations that do not change the physical system's state, has various counterexamples. Since no matching gauge conditions can be imposed, the Dirac bracket cannot be…
We show that an unambiguous and correct quantization of the second-class constrained system of a free particle on a sphere in $D$ dimensions is possible only by converting the constraints to abelian gauge constraints, which are of first…
The Dirac quantization is performed for the constrained system of the open string with different charges located at both ends in the constant background B field. Noncommutativity reveals to commutators [X, X], [P, P] and also [X,P] at both…
We study the dynamics of an open membrane with a cylindrical topology, in the background of a constant three form. We use the action, due to Bergshoeff, London and Townsend, to study the noncommutativity properties of the boundary string…
We analyse the problem of boundary conditions for the Poisson-Sigma model and extend previous results showing that non-coisotropic branes are allowed. We discuss the canonical reduction of a Poisson structure to a submanifold, leading to a…
We perform canonical quantization of the open Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond (NSR) superstrings in the background of a D-brane with the NS B-field. If we choose the mixed boundary condition as a primary constraint, it generates a set of secondary…
In this thesis we discuss some nonperturbative and noncommutative aspects of string theory. We present low-energy background field solutions corresponding to various D-branes (and their bound states) and intersecting branes in flat and…
The appearance of non(anti)commutativity in superstring theory, satisfying the Neveu-Schwarz boundary conditions is discussed in this paper. Both an open free superstring and also one moving in a background antisymmetric tensor field are…
Boundary conditions play a non trivial role in string theory. For instance the rich structure of D-branes is generated by choosing appropriate combinations of Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. Furthermore, when an antisymmetric…
A new method to compute the symplectic structure of a quantum field theory with non trivial boundary conditions is proposed. Following the suggestion in \cite{ho:gnus, ardalan}, we regard that the boundary conditions are second class…
We obtain background independent solutions for an open string ending on D-brane, in variable external fields. Explicit solution of the boundary conditions is given for background metric and NS-NS two-form gauge field, depending on the…
