Abstract

The strong-coupling limit of general relativity is quantized in a fixed gauge. An exact solution to the quantum field theory is given (it does not require any artifice such as a lattice), and the dynamical properties of the theory are discussed. The configuration space is closely related to the symmetric space SL(3,R)/SO(3), and this connection is exploited.
