BRANES AND QUANTIZATION FOR AN A-MODEL COMPLEXIFICATION OF EINSTEIN GRAVITY IN ALMOST KÄHLER VARIABLES

Abstract

The general relativity theory is redefined equivalently in almost Kähler variables: symplectic form, θ[g], and canonical symplectic connection, [Formula: see text] (distorted from the Levi–Civita connection by a tensor constructed only from metric coefficients and their derivatives). The fundamental geometric and physical objects are uniquely determined in metric compatible form by a (pseudo) Riemannian metric g on a manifold V enabled with a necessary type nonholonomic 2 + 2 distribution. Such nonholonomic symplectic variables allow us to formulate the problem of quantizing Einstein gravity in terms of the A-model complexification of almost complex structures on V, generalizing the Gukov–Witten method [1]. Quantizing [Formula: see text], we derive a Hilbert space as a space of strings with two A-branes which for the Einstein gravity theory are nonholonomic because of induced nonlinear connection structures. Finally, we speculate on relation of such a method of quantization to curve flows and solitonic hierarchies defined by Einstein metrics on (pseudo) Riemannian spacetimes.
