Notes:
The relation between the Nambu–Goto string in D dimensions and the two-dimensional σ model defined on the Grassmannian manifold SO(D−1,1)/SO(D−2)×SO(1,1) is investigated. For D=3 and D=4 the Nambu–Goto string is identified with a definite sector of the Grassmannian σ model. For D=3 the remaining sector is again a string model with an additional term in the Nambu–Goto action.
