Description

The symplectic structures for the open bosonic string are given by the method developed by Tuclzyjev and Chen and Yu and a geometric quantization for the string in the BRST formalism is proposed here. The conformal anomaly is cancelled if the curvature of the BRST vacuum bundle over G0' = G0/H vanishes. (orig.)
