269. Hamiltonian formulation of tetrad gravity: three dimensional case

This is a guest blog post by Natalia Kiriushcheva and Sergei Kuzmin from the U. of Western Ontario. Dmitry.

Thank you, Dmitry, for the invitation to write a guest post about our recent work co-authored with Alexei Frolov and Sergei Kuzmin: “Hamiltonian formulation of tetrad gravity: three dimensional case”, arXiv: 0902.0856 [gr-qc]. We are curious about your interest in this paper because our result ought to be of interest primary to LQG practitioners rather than to people working in strings, unless, of course, there are some connections or points, unknown to us, where “loops meet strings”. Maybe, if our article can spark a discussion, someone will explain this interest. So, why did we consider the Hamiltonian formulation of tetrad gravity and what did we find so far?
