A Note on the Symmetry Reduction of SU(2) on Horizons of Various Topologies
Andrew DeBenedictis, Steve Kloster, Johan Brannlund
It is known that the SU(2) degrees of freedom manifest in the description of the gravitational field in loop quantum gravity are generally reduced to U(1) degrees of freedom on an…
The Evolution of Black Holes in the Mini-Superspace Approximation of Loop Quantum Gravity
J. Brannlund, S. Kloster, A. DeBenedictis
Using the improved quantization technique to the mini-superspace approximation of loop quantum gravity, we study the evolution of black holes supported by a cosmological constant.…
Phase-space and Black Hole Entropy of Higher Genus Horizons in Loop Quantum Gravity
S. Kloster, J. Brannlund, A. DeBenedictis
In the context of loop quantum gravity, we construct the phase-space of isolated horizons with genus greater than 0. Within the loop quantum gravity framework, these horizons are d…
Gravastar Solutions with Continuous Pressures and Equation of State
A. DeBenedictis, D. Horvat, S. Ilijic +2
We study the gravitational vacuum star (gravastar) configuration as proposed by other authors in a model where the interior de Sitter spacetime segment is continuously extended to…
Relativistic particle, fluid and plasma mechanics coupled to gravity
A. Das, A. DeBenedictis, S. Kloster +1
In this introductory review article, we explore the special relativistic equations of particle motions and the consequent derivation of Einstein's famous formula . Next, we…
The gravitating perfect fluid-scalar field equations: quintessence and tachyonic
A. DeBenedictis, A. Das, S. Kloster
The system consisting of a self gravitating perfect fluid and scalar field is considered in detail. The scalar fields considered are the quintessence and ``tachyonic'' forms which…
