Özet

CP1 sigma model with Hopf interaction in 1 + 2 dimensions is quantized canonically using a lifted formulation. In this formulation the Hopf invariant is still a local functional of the fields. However, the constraint structure is as simple as that of a U(1) gauge theory without any nonlinearity constraints. As a by-product, the theta-dependent fractional spin is computed in this local setting.
