Abstract: (Elsevier)
From any solution of the classical Yang-Mills equations, we define a string wave functional based on the Wilson loop integral. Its precise definition is given by replacing the string by a finite set of N points, and taking the limit N → ∞. We show that this functional satisfies the Schrödinger equation of the relativistic dual string to leading order in N . We speculate about the relevance of this object to the quantum problem.
