Equivalence of the self-dual and Nambu-Goto strings
Winston J. Fairbairn, Karim Noui, Francesco Sardelli
We establish explicitely the relation between the algebraic and Nambu-Goto strings when the target space is a four dimensional flat space. We find that the two theories are exactly…
Combinatorial quantisation of the Euclidean torus universe
C. Meusburger, K. Noui
We quantise the Euclidean torus universe via a combinatorial quantisation formalism based on its formulation as a Chern-Simons gauge theory and on the representation theory of the…
Black hole entropy from an SU(2)-invariant formulation of Type I isolated horizons
Jonathan Engle, Karim Noui, Alejandro Perez +1
A detailed analysis of the spherically symmetric isolated horizon system is performed in terms of the connection formulation of general relativity. The system is shown to admit a m…
Motion in Quantum Gravity
Karim Noui
We tackle the question of motion in Quantum Gravity: what does motion mean at the Planck scale? Although we are still far from a complete answer we consider here a toy model in whi…
