The dynamics of topological open branes is controlled by Nambu Brackets. Thus, they might be quantized through the consistent quantization of the underlying Nambu brackets, including odd ones: these are reachable systematically from even…
The Nambu Bracket quantization of the Hydrogen atom is worked out as an illustration of the general method. The dynamics of topological open branes is controlled classically by Nambu Brackets. Such branes then may be quantized through the…
This review is a collection of various methods and observations relevant to structures in three-dimensional systems similar to those responsible for integrability of two-dimensional systems. Particular focus is given to Nambu structures and…
A geometric approach to derive the Nambu brackets for ideal two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamics is suggested. The derivation is based on two-forms with vanishing integrals in a periodic domain, and with resulting dynamics constrained by an…
Phase Space is the framework best suited for quantizing superintegrable systems--systems with more conserved quantities than degrees of freedom. In this quantization method, the symmetry algebras of the hamiltonian invariants are preserved…
We analyse the dynamics of an open membrane, both for the free case and when it is coupled to a background three-form, whose boundary is attached to $p$-branes. The role of boundary conditions and constraints in the Nambu-Goto and Polyakov…
So far fluid mechanical Nambu brackets have mainly been given on an intuitive basis. Alternatively an algorithmic construction of such a bracket for the two-dimensional vorticity equation is presented here. Starting from the Lie--Poisson…
We study the dynamics of the Nambu-Goto membranes with cohomogeneity one symmetry, i.e., the membranes whose trajectories are foliated by homogeneous surfaces. It is shown that the equation of motion reduces to a geodesic equation on a…
We present an approach to membrane quantization using matrix quantum mechanics at large N. We show that this leads (through a simple field theory of two-dimensional open strings and the associated SU(\infty) current algebra) to a 4-D…
In analogy to Nambu's generalization of mechanics, we present a generalization of Poisson sigma models to higher dimensional world volumes. We find corresponding generalizations of string sigma models and open-closed string relations for…
We study the dynamics of an open membrane with a cylindrical topology, in the background of a constant three form, whose boundary is attached to p-branes. The boundary closed string is coupled to a two form potential to ensure gauge…
If a Hamiltonian dynamical system with $n$ degrees of freedom admits $m$ constants of motion more than $2n-1$, then there exist some functional relations between the constants of motion. Among these relations the number of functionally…
We express the covariant actions of a super p-brane and the corresponding equations of motion, in the flat and curved superspaces, in terms of the Nambu (p+1)-brackets. These brackets make the (p+1)-algebra structure of super p-brane…
This paper proposes a novel approach to quantizing Nambu brackets in classical mechanics using operator formalism. The approach employs the ``Planck derivative'' to represent Nambu brackets, from which we derive a commutation relation for…
We give a representation of the volume preserving diffeomorphism of $\bR^p$ in terms of the noncommutative (p-2)-branes whose kinetic term is described by the Hopf term. In the static gauge, the (p-2)-brane can be described by the free…
A key symmetry of classical $p$-branes is invariance under worldvolume diffeomorphisms. Under the assumption that the worldvolume, at fixed values of the time, is a compact, quantisable K\"ahler manifold, we prove that the Lie algebra of…
We present an explicit matrix algebra quantization of the algebra of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of the $n$-torus. That is, we approximate the corresponding classical Nambu brackets using…
We study some wrapped configurations of branes in the near-horizon geometry of a stack of other branes. The common feature of all the cases analyzed is a quantization rule and the appearance of a finite number of static configurations in…
We propose an effective action for a p'-brane with open p-branes ending on it. The action has dual descriptions similar to the commutative and non-commutative ones of the DBI action for D-branes and open strings. The Poisson structure…
We prove in two different ways that brane dynamics gives rise to all H-monopoles predicted by S-duality of N=4, 4-dimensional superstring compactifications. One method uses heterotic-type II duality and the self-dual 3-brane dynamics, the…
