Intrinsic Time Deparameterization of The Canonical Connection Dynamics
of General Relativity    [PDF]

Vasudev Shyam

We investigate the implications of intrinsic time deparameterization on the phase space of the connection representation of canonical gravity in the form of the Ashtekar variables. We find that, much like the metric representation of this formalism, the Hamiltonian constraint now becomes a physical Hamiltonian generating evolution with respect to an intrinsic time. The complete observables for the theory are then constructed. Also, the dynamics in this formulation is cast into a classical master constraint theory.
