Nonlocal conservation laws for strings

  • 1. Phyiscs Department, Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York 13210

Description

A finite number of nonlocal conservation laws are found in the Nambu-Goto string model. An infinite number of conserved currents may be obtained by embedding the string in more than 3+1 space-time dimensions. These currents resemble the nonlocal currents found in two-dimensional chiral models
