Geometrical string and dual spin systems

We are able to perform the duality transformation of the spin system which was found before as a lattice realization of the string with linear action. In four and higher dimensions this spin system can be described in terms of a two-plaquette gauge hamiltonian. The duality transformation is constructed in geometrical and algebraic language. The dual hamiltonian represents a new type of spin system with local gauge invariance. At each vertex ξ there are d (d − 1) /2 Ising spins ∧_{μ, η} = ∧_{η,μ N}. ≠ P = 1, … , d and one Ising spin Γ on every linkξ ξ + e,). For the frozen spin Γ  1 the dual hamiltonian factorizes into d (d − 1) /2 two-dimensional Ising ferromagnets and into antiferromagnets in the case Γ  −1. For fluctuating F it is a sort of spin-glass system with local gauge invariance. The generalization to p-membranes is given.
