Holography in a quantum spacetime
Fotini Markopoulou, Lee Smolin
We propose a formulation of the holographic principle, suitable for a background independent quantum theory of cosmology. It is stated as a relationship between the flow of quantum…

Supersymmetric Spin Networks and Quantum Supergravity
Yi Ling, Lee Smolin
We define supersymmetric spin networks, which provide a complete set of gauge invariant states for supergravity and supersymmetric gauge theories. The particular case of Osp(1/2) i…

A candidate for a background independent formulation of M theory
Lee Smolin
A class of background independent membrane field theories are studied, and several properties are discovered which suggest that they may play a role in a background independent for…
