We describe a simple gauge-fixing that leads to a construction of a quantum Hilbert space for quantum gravity in an asymptotically Anti de Sitter spacetime, valid to all orders of perturbation theory. The construction is motivated by a relationship of the phase space of gravity in asymptotically Anti de Sitter spacetime to a cotangent bundle. We describe what is known about this relationship and some extensions that might plausibly be true. A key fact is that, under certain conditions, the Einstein Hamiltonian constraint equation can be viewed as a way to gauge fix the group of conformal rescalings of the metric of a Cauchy hypersurface. An analog of the procedure that we follow for Anti de Sitter gravity leads to standard results for a Klein-Gordon particle.

York time in JT gravity
In JT gravity, the Hartle-Hawking wavefunction satisfies a Schrodinger equation in York time with a Hermitian squeezing Hamiltonian, and York time evolution is a unitary change of the length basis rather than physical...

Wavefunctions of AdS$_3$ Universes and $T\bar{T}$-deformed Torus Partition Functions
The paper's central claim of an invertible bulk-boundary transform for T-Tbar deformed torus partition functions is broken by an incorrect inverse kernel and a factor-of-pi normalization inconsistency.

Observers and Timekeepers: From the Page-Wootters Mechanism to the Gravitational Path Integral
Metric summation produces the problem of time, topology summation produces the one-dimensional Hilbert space, and a timekeeper path integral gives observer-dependent holography.
