Problem of Time in Quantum Gravity

Project Summary

Problem of time one of basic problems in quantum gravity. When combining quantum mechanics and general relativity using Dirac's principle of quantization, the time variable formally disappears, and Schrodinger's equation takes the form of pure constraint equation called the Hamiltonian constraint equation. The problem is time is to derive the time evaluation of the universe from this constraint equation.
