Inconsistency of canonical commutation relations among current densities

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

Ordinary commutation relations among current densities have been shown to lead to inconsistency without assuming the conservation law of currents. Also it is demonstrated that the ordinary PS-PV meson theory and also the σ-model will give rise to similar inconsistencies in general.

Riassunto

Si è dimostrato che le ordinarie relazioni di commutazione tra densità di, correnti portano ad incongruenze se non si adotta la legge di conservazione delle correnti. Si dimostra pure che l'ordinaria teoria del mesone PS-PV ed anche il modello σ daranno origine in generale a simili incongruenze.
