Euler-Lagrange hyperbolic systems of the second order and relativistic strings
Description
It is proved that the only Lorentz covariant Lagrangian density for a general second order quasi-linear hyperbolic system in diagonal form is a stringlike one, which includes the Heisenberg-Euler scalar field Lagrangian. Complete exceptionality is also proved
