Abstract

We point out several features of the quantum Hamiltonian constraints recently introduced by Thiemann for Euclidean gravity. In particular we discuss the issue of the constraint algebra and of the quantum realization of the object qabVbq^{ab}V_b, which is classically the Poisson Bracket of two Hamiltonians.
