Abstract

We continue the previous discussion (A. D'Adda, J. E. Nelson, and T. Regge, Ann. Phys. (N.Y.) 165) of the covariant canonical formalism for the group manifold and relate it to the standard canonical vierbein formalism as pioneered by Dirac. The form bracket is related to the Poisson bracket of classical mechanics. We utilise systematically the calculus of differential forms and a compound notation which labels Poincaré multiplets. In this way we obtain a particularly clear and compact expression for the Hamiltonian and the constraints algebra of the vierbein formalism.
