Barrett-Crane spin foam model from generalized BF-type action for gravity
Richard E. Livine, Daniele Oriti
We study a generalized action for gravity as a constrained BF theory, and its relationship with the Plebanski action. We analyse the discretization of the constraints and the spin…

Immirzi parameter in the Barrett-Crane model?
Richard E. Livine
We study the generalised constrained BF theory described in gr-qc/0102073 in order to introduce the Immirzi parameter in spin foam models. We show that the resulting spin foam mode…
