A Hamiltonian description is constructed for a wide class of mechanical systems having local symmetry transformations depending on time derivatives of the gauge parameters of arbitrary order. The Poisson brackets of the Hamiltonian and constraints with each other and with an arbitrary function are explicitly obtained. The constraint algebra is proved to be of the first class.

A new class of constrained hamiltonian systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom is proposed in which excitations can be divided into two groups analogous to the left and right movers of string theories. Some of these models can be regarded as discrete analogs of the bosonic string, and in the continuum limit with the infinite dimensional constraint algebra Vect (S1)⊗ Vect (S1) one can obtain the classical theory of closed bosonic strings. We also discuss the problem of quantizing these models and constructing the propagator by using path integral methods. A possibility of a supersymmetric extension of our models is also pointed out.

A rank-three tensor model in canonical formalism has recently been proposed. The model describes consistent local-time evolutions of fuzzy spaces through a set of first-class constraints which form an on-shell closed algebra with structure functions. In fact, the algebra provides an algebraically consistent discretization of the Dirac–DeWitt constraint algebra in the canonical formalism of general relativity. However, the configuration space of this model contains obvious degeneracies of representing identical fuzzy spaces. In this paper, to delete the degeneracies, another first-class constraint representing a scaling symmetry is added to propose a new canonical rank-three tensor model. A consequence is that, while classical solutions of the previous model have typically runaway or vanishing behaviors, the new model has a compact configuration space and its classical solutions asymptotically approach either fixed points or cyclic orbits in time evolution. Among others, fixed points contain configurations with group symmetries, and may represent stationary symmetric fuzzy spaces. Another consequence on the uniqueness of the local Hamiltonian constraint is also discussed, and a minimal canonical tensor model, which is unique, is given.
