摘要：

The quantum theory of a type of generally covariant field theory, that has no local degrees of freedom, is described. Physical observables that capture topological properties of the manifold are identified and a representation of their Poisson algebra is constructed to obtain the quantum theory. A non-Abelian generalization to SU(2) is also discussed in a similar way.
