Realizations of Observables in Hamiltonian Systems with First Class Constraints
Abstract
In a Hamiltonian system with first class constraints observables can be defined as elements of a quotient Poisson bracket algebra. In the gauge fixing method observables form a quotient Dirac bracket algebra. We show that these two algebras are isomorphic. A new realization of the observable algebras through the original Poisson bracket is found. Generators, brackets and pointwise products of the algebras under consideration are calculated.
