Review text

A membrane-dependent wave function which realizes the 3-cocycle of translation group is proposed. The nonassociativity is measured by the closed 3-form integrated over the volume surrounded by the variation of membrane. The infinitesimal version of this variation gives the anomalous Jacobi identity.
