Spherically Symmetric Quantum Geometry: Hamiltonian Constraint
Martin Bojowald, Rafal Swiderski
Variables adapted to the quantum dynamics of spherically symmetric models are introduced, which further simplify the spherically symmetric volume operator and allow an explicit com…

Spherically Symmetric Quantum Horizons
Martin Bojowald, Rafal Swiderski
Isolated horizon conditions specialized to spherical symmetry can be imposed directly at the quantum level. This answers several questions concerning horizon degrees of freedom, wh…

The Volume Operator in Spherically Symmetric Quantum Geometry
Martin Bojowald, Rafal Swiderski
The spherically symmetric volume operator is discussed and all its eigenstates and eigenvalues are computed. Even though the operator is more complicated than its homogeneous analo…
