Proper Dirac quantization of a free particle on a D-dimensional sphere.
From MaRDI portal
Publication:1968390
Abstract: We show that an unambiguous and correct quantization of the second-class constrained system of a free particle on a sphere in dimensions is possible only by converting the constraints to abelian gauge constraints, which are of first class in Dirac's classification scheme. The energy spectrum is equal to that of a pure Laplace-Beltrami operator with no additional constant arising from the curvature of the sphere. A quantization of Dirac's modified Poisson brackets for second-class constraints is also possible and unique, but must be rejected since the resulting energy spectrum is physically incorrect.
