Abstract
The author obtains the constraint algebra of tetrad gravity by means of a 3+1 decomposition of the ECSKT Lagrangian. He finds that the requirement of equivalence between the Lagrangian and the usual Hamiltonian formulations leads necessarily to the imposition of the time gauge condition. He also points out differences in the constraint algebra with previous works.Keywords
