On the Hamiltonian formalism of the tetrad-gravity with fermions. (English) Zbl 1392.83076
Summary: We extend the analysis of the Hamiltonian formalism of the d-dimensional tetrad-connection gravity to the fermionic field by fixing the non-dynamic part of the spatial connection to zero [the first author et al., Classical Quantum Gravity 34, No. 11, Article ID 115010, 25 p. (2017; Zbl 1370.83081)]. Although the reduced phase space is equipped with complicated Dirac brackets, the first-class constraints which generate the diffeomorphisms and the Lorentz transformations satisfy a closed algebra with structural constants analogous to that of the pure gravity. We also show the existence of a canonical transformation leading to a new reduced phase space equipped with Dirac brackets having a canonical form leading to the same algebra of the first-class constraints.
