New Measures for the Quantization of Systems with Constraints

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

Based on the results of a recent reexamination of the quantization of systems with first-class and second-class constraints from the point of view of coherent-state phase-space path integration, we give additional examples of the quantization procedure for reparameterization invariant Hamiltonians, for systems for which the original set of Lagrange multipliers are elevated to dynamical variables, as well as extend the formalism to include cases of first-class constraints the operator form of which have a spectral gap about the value zero that characterizes the quantum constraint subspace.
