Abstract
We introduce and study a new discrete basis of gravity constraints by making use of the harmonic expansion for closed cosmological models. The full set of constraints is split into area-preserving spatial diffeomorphisms, forming a closed subalgebra, and Virasoro-like generators. The operatorial Hamiltonian BFV-BRST quantization is performed in the framework of a perturbative expansion in the dimensionless parameter which is a positive power of the ratio of the Planck volume to the volume of the Universe. For the ( N + 1) - dimensional generalization of a stationary closed Bianchi- I cosmology the nilpotency condition for the BRST operator is examined in the first quantum approximation. It turns out that a relationship between the dimensionality of the space and the spectrum of matter fields emerges from the requirement of quantum consistency of the model.
