Abstract

We generalize to dimension p>1p>1 the notion of string structure and discuss the related obstruction. We apply our results to a model of bosonic pp-branes propagating on a principal GG-bundle, coupled to a Yang--Mills field and an antisymmetric tensor field and in the presence of a Wess-Zumino term in the Lagrangian. We construct the quantization line bundle and discuss the action of background gauge transformations on wave functions.
