Semiclassical states in quantum gravity: Curvature associated to a Voronoi graph

Jacobo Diaz-Polo, Iñaki Garay

The building blocks of a quantum theory of general relativity are expected to be discrete structures. Loop quantum gravity is formulated using a basis of spin networks (wave functi…

Dynamics for a simple graph using the U(N) framework for loop quantum gravity

Enrique F. Borja, Jacobo Diaz-Polo, Laurent Freidel +2

The implementation of the dynamics in loop quantum gravity (LQG) is still an open problem. Here, we discuss a tentative dynamics for the simplest class of graphs in LQG: Two vertic…

U(N) and holomorphic methods for LQG and Spin Foams

Enrique F. Borja, Jacobo Diaz-Polo, Iñaki Garay

The U(N) framework and the spinor representation for loop quantum gravity are two new points of view that can help us deal with the most fundamental problems of the theory. Here, w…

Probing Loop Quantum Gravity with Evaporating Black Holes

Aurelien Barrau, Xiangyu Cao, Jacobo Diaz-Polo +2

This letter aims at showing that the observation of evaporating black holes should allow distinguishing between the usual Hawking behavior and Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) expectatio…

Detailed black hole state counting in loop quantum gravity

Ivan Agullo, J. Fernando Barbero G., Enrique F. Borja +2

We give a complete and detailed description of the computation of black hole entropy in loop quantum gravity by employing the most recently introduced number-theoretic and combinat…

Dynamics for a 2-vertex Quantum Gravity Model

Enrique F. Borja, Jacobo Diaz-Polo, Iñaki Garay +1

We use the recently introduced U(N) framework for loop quantum gravity to study the dynamics of spin network states on the simplest class of graphs: two vertices linked with an arb…
