Symmetric States in Quantum Geometry
M. Bojowald, H. A. Kastrup
Symmetric states are defined in the kinematical sector of loop quantum gravity and applied to spherical symmetry and homogeneity. Consequences for the physics of black holes and co…
Group Theoretical Quantization of a Phase Space S^1 x R^+ and the Mass Spectrum of Schwarzschild Black Holes in D Space-Time Dimensions
M. Bojowald, H. A. Kastrup, F. Schramm +1
The symplectic reduction of pure spherically symmetric (Schwarzschild) classical gravity in D space-time dimensions yields a 2-dimensional phase space of observables consisting of…
Schwarzschild Black Hole Quantum Statistics from Z(2) Orientation Degrees of Freedom and its Relations to Ising Droplet Nucleation
H. A. Kastrup
Generalizing previous quantum gravity results for Schwarzschild black holes from 4 to D > 3 space-time dimensions yields an energy spectrum E_n = alpha n^{(D-3)/(D-2)} E_P, n=1,2,.…
Canonical Quantum Statistics of Schwarzschild Black Holes and Ising Droplet Nucleation
H. A. Kastrup
Recently is was shown that the imaginary part of the canonical partition function of Schwarzschild black holes with an energy spectrum E_n = σ\sqrt{n} E_P, n= 1,2, ..., has propert…
Canonical Quantum Statistics of an Isolated Schwarzschild Black Hole with a Spectrum E_n = sigma sqrt{n} E_P
H. A. Kastrup
Many authors - beginning with Bekenstein - have suggested that the energy levels E_n of a quantized isolated Schwarzschild black hole have the form E_n = sigma sqrt{n} E_P, n=1,2,.…
Back Reaction and Semiclassical Approximation of cosmological models coupled to matter
H. Wissowski, H. A. Kastrup
Bianchi -I, -III, and FRW type models minimally coupled to a massive spatially homogeneous scalar field (i.e. a particle) are studied in the framework of semiclassical quantum grav…
