Abstract: | The Martin-Siggia-Rose functional technique and the selfconsistent Hartree approximation is applied to the dynamics of a D-dimensional manifold in a melt of similar manifolds. The generalized Rouse equation is derived and its static and dynamic
properties are studied. The static upper critical dimension, d
uc
=2D/(2-D), discriminates between Gaussian (or screened) and non-Gaussian regimes, whereas its dynamical counterpart, , discriminates between Rouse- and renormalized-Rouse behavior. The Rouse modes correlation function in a stretched exponential
form and the dynamical exponents are calculated explicitly. The special case of linear chains D=1 shows agreement with Monte-Carlo simulations.
