Classical and quantum gravity with Ashtekar variables
This thesis is a study of classical and quantum gravity with Ashtekar variables. The Ashtekar constraints are shown to capture the essence of the constraints and constraint algebra of General Relativity in four dimensions. A classification scheme of the solution space of the Ashtekar constraints is...
