Constraint Lie algebra and local physical Hamiltonian for a generic 2D dilatonic model

We consider a class of two dimensional dilatonic models, and revisit them from the perspective of a new set of "polar type" variables. These are motivated by recently defined variables within the spherically symmetric sector of 4D general relativity. We show that for a large class of dilatonic models, including the case \emph{with} matter, one can perform a series of canonical transformations in such a way that the Poisson algebra of the constraints becomes a Lie algebra. Furthermore, we construct Dirac observables and a reduced Hamiltonian that accounts for the time evolution of the system. Thus, with our formulation, the systems under consideration are amenable to be quantized with loop quantization methods.
