Massless -brane modes and the critical line

Abstract: (arXiv)
We consider a -brane model as a theory of maps from the vertices of the Bruhat-Tits tree times into . We show that in order for the worldsheet time evolution to be unitary, a certain spectral parameter of the model must localize at special loci in the complex plane, which include the (0,1) interval and the critical line of real part . The excitations of the model are supported at these loci, with commutation relations closely resembling those of the usual bosonic string. We show that the usual Hamiltonian, momentum, and angular momentum are conserved quantities, and the Poincaré algebra is obeyed. Assuming an Euler product relation for the spectrum, the Riemann zeta zeros on the critical line have spectral interpretation as the massless photon and graviton in the Archimedean theory.Note:
