BTZ Black Hole Entropy and the Turaev-Viro model
Marc Geiller, Karim Noui
We show the explicit agreement between the derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of a Euclidean BTZ black hole from the point of view of spin foam models and canonical quant…
Statistics, holography, and black hole entropy in loop quantum gravity
Amit Ghosh, Karim Noui, Alejandro Perez
In loop quantum gravity the quantum states of a black hole horizon are produced by point-like discrete quantum geometry excitations (or {\em punctures}) labelled by spin . The e…
Spectra of geometric operators in three-dimensional LQG: From discrete to continuous
Jibril Ben Achour, Marc Geiller, Karim Noui +1
We study and compare the spectra of geometric operators (length and area) in the quantum kinematics of two formulations of three-dimensional Lorentzian loop quantum gravity. In the…
Testing the role of the Barbero-Immirzi parameter and the choice of connection in Loop Quantum Gravity
Jibril Ben Achour, Marc Geiller, Karim Noui +1
We study the role of the Barbero-Immirzi parameter and the choice of connection in the construction of (a symmetry-reduced version of) loop quantum gravity. We start with the f…
