This is done by a straightforward calculation without involving any insights, implicit functions, and Dirac brackets. The tetrad approach is the only way to present the bigravity action as a linear functional of lapses and shifts, and the Hassan-Rosen transform (characterized as ``complicated redefinition of the shift variable'' according to the authors) appears here not as an ansatz but as a fixing of a Lagrange multiplier. A comparison of this approach with the others is provided.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-06-29T17:53:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "83D05" ], "keywords": [ "constraint algebra", "2nd order tetrad hamiltonian formalism", "lagrange multiplier", "dirac brackets", "tetrad approach" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 33, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
