The Plebanski action extended to a unification of gravity and Yang-Mills theory
Lee Smolin
We study a unification of gravity with Yang-Mills fields based on a simple extension of the Plebanski action to a Lie group G which contains the local lorentz group. The Coleman-Ma…

Propagation and interaction of chiral states in quantum gravity
Lee Smolin, Yidun Wan
We study the stability, propagation and interactions of braid states in models of quantum gravity in which the states are four-valent spin networks embedded in a topological three…

Disordered locality in loop quantum gravity states
Fotini Markopoulou, Lee Smolin
We show that loop quantum gravity suffers from a potential problem with non-locality, coming from a mismatch between micro-locality, as defined by the combinatorial structures of t…
