Abstract
Recently, it has been observed that a certain class of classical theories with constraints can be quantized by a mathematical procedure known as Rieffel induction. After a short exposition of this idea, we apply the new quantization theory to the Stückelberg–Kibble model. We explicitly construct the physical state space ℋphys, which carries a massive representation of the Poincaré group. The longitudinal one-particle component arises from a particular Bogoliubov transformation of the five (unphysical) degrees of freedom one has started with. Our discussion exhibits the particular features of the proposed constrained quantization theory in great clarity.
