Quantum states of elementary three-geometry
G. Carbone, M. Carfora, A. Marzuoli
We introduce a quantum volume operator in three--dimensional Quantum Gravity by taking into account a symmetrical coupling scheme of three SU(2) angular momenta. The spectrum o…

Hierarchies of invariant spin models
Gaspare Carbone, Mauro Carfora, Annalisa Marzuoli
In this paper we present classes of state sum models based on the recoupling theory of angular momenta of SU(2) (and of its q-counterpart , q a root of unity). Such cla…

Invariants of spin networks with boundary in Quantum Gravity and TQFT's
Gaspare Carbone, Mauro Carfora, Annalisa Marzuoli
The search for classical or quantum combinatorial invariants of compact n-dimensional manifolds (n=3,4) plays a key role both in topological field theories and in lattice quantum g…
