The bracket relations in this algebra are precisely those of the constraints for the initial value problem. The Lie–Rinehart algebra comes from a slight generalization of a Lie algebroid in which the algebra consists of sections of a sheaf rather than a vector bundle. (An actual Lie algebroid had been previously constructed by Blohmann, Fernandes, and Weinstein over a much larger extension.) The construction uses the BV–BFV (Batalin–Fradkin–Vilkovisky) approach to boundary value problems, starting with the Einstein equations themselves, to construct an $L_infty$-algebroid over a graded manifold which extends the initial data. The Lie–Rinehart algebra is then constructed by a change of variables. One of the consequences of the BV–BFV approach is a proof that the coisotropic property of the constraint set follows from the invariance of the Einstein equations under space-time diffeomorphisms.","PeriodicalId":54526,"journal":{"name":"Pure and Applied Mathematics Quarterly","volume":"193 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138495297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
