Effective Quantum Gravitational Collapse in Metric Variables: The Scheme
L. Boldorini, G. Montani
We study, using the metric variables, how an effective theory for the Oppenheimer-Snyder gravitational collapse can be built with the scheme from Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG…

Polymer Geodesic Motion in Schwarzschild Spacetime
Lorenzo Boldorini, Corrado Marzano, Giovanni Montani
In this paper we will study the geodesic motion of massive particles, in a Schwarzschild background, with a semi-classical quantum framework called "Polymer Quantum Mechanics" (PQM…

Effective Quantum Gravitational Collapse in a Polymer Framework
L. Boldorini, G. Montani
We study how the presence of an area gap, different than zero, affects the gravitational collapse of a dust ball. The implementation of such discreteness is achieved through the fr…
