Description

The role of time in path integral formulations of parametrized theories is investigated, to further progress in the field of quantum gravity. Gauge theories and parametrized theories; quantum mechanics in physical variables; a parametrized theory; a gauge theory; and the difference between gauge and parametrized theories; are all discussed. (U.K.)
