Description
We use the light-front machinery to study the behavior of a relativistic free-particle and obtain the quantum commutation relations from the classical Poisson brackets. We argue that the usual projection onto the light-front coordinates for these from the covariant commutation relations does not reproduce the expected results. (author)
