A non-equilibrium extension of quantum gravity
Pierre A. Mandrin
A variety of quantum gravity models (including spin foams) can be described using a path integral formulation. A path integral has a well-known statistical mechanical interpretatio…

A non-dynamical approach for quantum gravity
Pierre A. Mandrin
By quantising the gravitational dynamics, space and time are usually forced to play fundamentally different roles. This raises the question whether physically relevent configuratio…
