The problem of time in parametrized theories

A common feature of reparametrization invariant theories is the difficulty involved in identifying an appropriate evolution parameter and in constructing a Hilbert space on states. Two well known examples of such theories are the relativistic point particle and the canonical formulation of quantum g...
