Pseudoclassical theories of Majorana, Weyl and Majorana--Weyl particles

A pseudoclassical theories of Majorana, Weyl and Majorana--Weyl particles in the space--time dimensions $D=2n$ are constructed. The canonical quantization of these theories is carried out and as a result we obtain the quantum mechanical description of neutral particle in $D=2n$ , Weyl particle in $D=2n$ and neutral Weyl particle in $D=4n+2$. In $D=2,4({\rm mod}8)$ dimensional space--time the description of the neutral particle coincides with the field theoretical description of the Majorana particle in the Foldy--Wouthuysen representation. In $D=8k+2$ dimensions the neutral Weyl particle coincides with the Majorana--Weyl particle in the Foldy--Wouthuysen representation.

Pseudoclassical description of higher spins in $2+1$ dimensions

Pseudoclassical supersymmetric model to describe massive particles with higher spins (integer and half-integer) in $2+1$ dimensions is proposed. The quantization of the model leads to the minimal (with only one polarization state) quantum theory. In particular, the Bargmann-Wigner type equations for higher spins arise in course of the canonical quantization. The cases of spin one-half and one are considered in detail. Here one gets Dirac particles and Chern-Simons particles respectively. A relation with the field theory is discussed. On the basis of the model proposed, and using dimensional reduction considerations, a model to describe Weyl particles with higher spins in $3+1$ dimensions is constructed.

Pseudoclassical theory of Mayorana--Weyl particle

A pseudoclassical theory of Weyl particle in the space--time dimensions $D=2n$ is constructed. The canonical quantization of that pseudoclassical theory is carried out and it results in the theory of the $D=2n$ dimensional Weyl particle in the Foldy--Wouthuysen representation. A quantum mechanics of the neutral Weyl particle in even--dimensional space--time is suggested and the connection of this theory with the theory of Mayorana--Weyl particle in QFT is discussed for D=10.

On the Equivalence of Dual Theories

We discuss the equivalence of two dual scalar field theories in 2 dimensions. The models are derived though the elimination of different fields in the same Freedman--Townsend model. It is shown that tree $S$-matrices of these models do not coincide. The 2-loop counterterms are calculated. It turns out that while one of these models is single-charged, the other theory is multi-charged. Thus the dual models considered are non-equivalent on classical and quantum levels. It indicates the possibility of the anomaly leading to non-equivalence of dual models.

New Pseudoclassical model for Weyl particles

A new pseudoclassical model to describe Weyl particles is proposed. Different ways of its quantization are presented. They all lead to the theory of Weyl particle; namely, the massless Dirac equation and the Weyl condition are reproduced. In contrast with models discussed previously, this one admits both the Dirac quantization and quasicanonical quantization, with the fixation of almost all gauge freedom on the classical level.

Split Involution Coupled to Actual Gauge Symmetry

The split involution quantization scheme, proposed previously for pure second--class constraints only, is extended to cover the case of the presence of irreducible first--class constraints. The explicit Sp(2)--symmetry property of the formalism is retained to hold. The constraint algebra generating equations are formulated and the Unitarizing Hamiltonian is constructed. Physical operators and states are defined in the sense of the new equivalence criterion that is a natural counterpart to the Dirac's weak equality concept as applied to the first--class quantities.

On the Multilevel Field--Antifield Formalism with the Most General Lagrangian Hypergauges

The multilevel field-antifield formalism is constructed in a geometrically covariant way without imposing the unimodularity conditions on the hypergauge functions. Thus the previously given version [1,2] is extended to cover the most general case of Lagrangian surface bases. It is shown that the extra measure factors, required to enter the gauge-independent functional integrals, can be included naturally into the multilevel scheme by modifying the boundary conditions to the quantum master equation.

Quantization of pseudoclassical model of spin one relativistic particle

A consistent procedure of canonical quantization of pseudoclassical model for spin one relativistic particle is considered. Two approaches to treat the quantization for the massless case are discussed, the limit of the massive case and independent quantization of a modified action. Quantum mechanics constructed for the massive case proves to be equivalent to the Proca theory and for massless case to the Maxwell theory. Results obtained are compared with ones for the case of spinning (spin one half) particle.

On the multilevel generalization of the field--antifield formalism

The multilevel geometrically--covariant generalization of the field--antifield BV--formalism is suggested. The structure of quantum generating equations and hypergauge conditions is studied in details. The multilevel formalism is established to be physically--equivalent to the standard BV--version.

Unified Constrained Dynamics

The unified constrained dynamics is formulated without making use of the Dirac splitting of constraint classes. The strengthened, completely--closed, version of the unified constraint algebra generating equations is given. The fundamental phase variable supercommutators are included into the unified algebra as well. The truncated generating operator is defined to be nilpotent in terms of which the Unitarizing Hamiltonian is constructed.

On possible generalizations of field--antifield formalism

A generalized version is proposed for the field-antifield formalism. The antibracket operation is defined in arbitrary field-antifield coordinates. The antisymplectic definitions are given for first- and second-class constraints. In the case of second-class constraints the Dirac's antibracket operation is defined. The quantum master equation as well as the hypergauge fixing procedure are formulated in a coordinate-invariant way. The general hypergauge functions are shown to be antisymplectic first-class constraints whose Jacobian matrix determinant is constant on the constraint surface. The BRST-type generalized transformations are defined and the functional integral is shown to be independent of the hypergauge variations admitted. In the case of reduced phase space the Dirac's antibrackets are used instead of the ordinary ones.
