Abstract

Projection quantization, which is a method to quantize systems with non-holonomic constraints like the condition Det q > 0 in general relativity, is shown to coincide with a reduced phase space quantization in a class of cases which is specified in the main text. This is inferred in the context of geometric quantization using the symplectic cutting technique.
