Deparametrization and quantization of the Taub universe

Abstract
Previous analysis about the deparametrization and path integral quantization of cosmological models are extended to models which do not admit an intrinsic time. The formal expression for the transition amplitude is written down for the Taub anisotropic universe with a clear notion of time. The relation existing between the deparametrization associated to gauge fixation required in the path integral approach and the procedure of reduction of the Wheeler-De Witt equation is also studied.
