A Hamiltonian formulation is given for the gravitational dynamics of two spinning compact bodies to next-to-leading order ($G/c^4$ and $G^2/c^4$) in the spin-orbit interaction. We use a novel approach (valid to linear order in the spins),…

The Dirac Hamiltonian formalism is applied to a system in $(2+1)$-dimensions consisting of a Dirac field $\psi$ minimally coupled to Chern-Simons $U(1)$ and $SO(2,1)$ connections, $A$ and $\omega$, respectively. This theory is connected to…

In this paper we provide an action related to a certain sector of general relativity where the algebra of Hamiltonian constraints forms a first class system. This action is a Dirac-consistent stand-alone action with two physical degrees of…
