Surface Integrals and the Gravitational Action
J. M. Charap,J. E. Nelson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the modifications needed to free the Einstein-Hilbert action of gravitation from all second derivatives of fields, and give explicitly the resulting action applicable to either metric or vierbein variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
The canonical Hamiltonian for vierbein general relativity
TL;DR: The canonical Hamiltonian for vierbein general relativity was derived in this article, starting from an expression for the action which differs from the Hilbert-Einstein action by a surface term.
Journal ArticleDOI
Canonical general relativity: the primary constraint algebra
TL;DR: In this paper, the canonical treatment of general relativity in a vierbein formulation was discussed, and the primary constraints were derived from an algebra the same as that of the generators of local Poincare transformations.
