abstract

We obtain the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation of general relativity in $n$ dimensions ($n \geq 3$) from its either $SO(n-1,1)$ [$SO(n)$] or $SO(n-1)$ Palatini Hamiltonian formulations and vice versa [we recall that $SO(n-1,1)$ [$SO(n)$] requires no gauge fixing whereas $SO(n-1)$ involves the time gauge]. Similarly, the Hamiltonian formulation of general relativity in terms of Ashtekar-Barbero variables can also be directly obtained from the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner Hamiltonian formulation and vice versa, which is an alternative approach to the way followed by Barbero. We give the relevant maps among the phase-space variables and relate the corresponding symplectic structures and the first-class constraints.
