In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in problems dating back for over half a century. In particular we refer to the questions of the consistency of quantisation and nonlinear canonical transformations and the quantisation of higher-order field theories. We present resolutions to these questions based upon considerations of symmetry. This enables one to examine these problems within the context of existing theory without the need to introduce new and exotic theories.

Abstract
In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in problems dating back for over half a century. In particular we refer to the questions of the consistency of quantisation and nonlinear canonical transformations and the quantisation of higher-order field theories. We present resolutions to these questions based upon considerations of symmetry. This enables one to examine these problems within the context of existing theory without the need to introduce new and exotic theories.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
