Effective Constraints for Quantum Systems |
Abstract |
Exact procedures that follow Dirac's constraint quantization are usually technically involved and often difficult to implement in practice. We propose an ``effective'' scheme for obtaining the leading order semi-classical corrections to the dynamics of constrained quantum systems. Motivated by the geometrical view of quantum mechanics, our method mimics the classical Dirac-Bergmann algorithm and avoids direct reference to a particular representation of the physical Hilbert space. We illustrate the procedure through the example of a relativistic particle in Minkowski spacetime, which serves as a prototype for quantizing cosmological models. |
