Abstract
A systematic method for the conversion of first class constraints to a n equivalent set of the Abelian constraints based on the Dirac equival ence transformation is developed. A representation for the correspondi ng matrix of this transformation is proposed. This representation allo ws one to reduce the problem of Abelianization to the solution of a ce rtain system of first order linear differential equations for matrix e lements.
