Canonical Functional Quantization of Pseudo-Photons in Planar Systems

Abstract

Extended $U_e(1)\times U_g(1)$ electromagnetism containing both a photon and a pseudo-photon is introduced at variational level and is justified by the violation of the Bianchi identities in conceptual systems, either in the presence of magnetic monopoles or non-regular external fields, not being accounted by the standard Maxwell Lagrangian. It is carried a dimensional reduction that renders a $U_e(1)\times U_g(1)$ Maxwell-BF type theory and it is considered canonical functional quantization in planar systems which may be relevant in Hall systems.
