| Abstract: | We generalize to dimension p> 1 the notion of string structure and discuss the related obstruction. We apply our results to a model of bosonic p-branes propagating on a principal G-bundle, coupled to a Yang-Mills field and an antisymmetric tensor field and in the presence of a Wess-Zumino term in the Lagrangian. We construct the quantization line bundle and discuss the action of background gauge transformations on wave functions. |
