Phys. Rev. D 20, 830–833 (1979)Consistent factor ordering of general-relativistic constraintsReceived 15 January 1979; published in the issue dated 15 August 1979 Our recent analysis of the quantization of theories with constraints has demonstrated that in a quantum theory with a nontrivial gauge group the constraints must never be realized by Hermitian operators. Thus, abandoning the Hermiticity requirement, we have succeeded in discovering an essentially unique, consistent factor ordering of the Dirac constraints for the general theory of relativity. © 1979 The American Physical Society URL:
