A general system constrained with {\it several} initial constraint conditions is quantized based on the Dirac formalism and the Schrödinger equation for this system is obtained. These constraint conditions are now allowed to depend not only on the coordinates but also on the velocities. It is shown that the hermiticity for the observables of the system restricts the geometrical structure of our world.
The Kalb-Ramond action, derived for interacting strings through an action-at-a-distance force, is generalized to the case of interacting p-dimensional objects (p-branes) in D-dimensional space-time. The open p-brane version of the theory is especially taken up. On account of the existence of their boundary surface, the fields mediating interactions between open p-branes are obtained as massive gauge fields, quite in contrast to massless gauge ones for closed p-branes.
The Kalb-Ramond action for an interacting string is generalized to the case of a high-dimensional object (p-brane). The interaction is found to be mediated by a gauge boson of a completely antisymmetric tensor of rank $p+1$.
