The Presentation of the Algebra of Observables of the Closed Bosonic String in 1+3 Dimensions: Calculation up to Order \hbar^7

We proceed with the investigation of a method of quantization of the observable sector of closed bosonic strings. For the presentation of the quantum algebra of observables the construction cycle concerning elements of order \hbar^6 has been carried out. We have computed the quantum corrections to the only generating relation of order \hbar^6. This relation is of spin-parity J^P=0^+. We found that the quantum corrections to this relation break the semidirect splitting of the classical algebra into an abelian, infinitely generated subalgebra a and a non-abelian, finitely generated subalgebra U. We have established that there are no ("truly independent") generating relations of order \hbar^7.

De Donder-Weyl Equations and Multisymplectic Geometry

Multisymplectic geometry is an adequate formalism to geometrically describe first order classical field theories. The De Donder-Weyl equations are treated in the framework of multisymplectic geometry, solutions are identified as integral manifolds of Hamiltonean multivectorfields. In contrast to mechanics, solutions cannot be described by points in the multisymplectic phase space. Foliations of the configuration space by solutions and a multisymplectic version of Hamilton-Jacobi theory are also discussed.

Anomalies and Star Products

A formulation of anomalies in terms of star products is suggested which promises insight from an alternative and unifying point of view.
