Quantum Geometry I : Basics of Loop Quantum Gravity. The Quantum Polyhedra
J. Manuel Garcia-Islas
General Relativity describes gravity in geometrical terms. This suggests that quantizing such theory is the same as quantizing geometry. The subject can therefore be called quantum…
2D Naked Singularity in General Relativity
J. Manuel Garcia-Islas
We present a novel example of a 2-dimensional space-time naked singularity. The solution has a gravity singularity and no-horizon. This example is only a toy model and as such its…
The four particles paradox in special relativity
J. Manuel Garcia-Islas
We present a novel paradox in special relativity together with its solution. We call it the four particles paradox. The purpose of this paradox is pedagogical and therefore directe…
Entropic Motion in Loop Quantum Gravity
J. Manuel Garcia-Islas
Entropic forces result from an increase of the entropy of a thermodynamical physical system. It has been proposed that gravity is such a phenomenon and many articles have appeared…
A very simple solution to the OPERA neutrino velocity problem
J. Manuel Garcia-Islas
Scientists from the OPERA experiment have measured neutrinos supposedly travelling at a velocity faster than light contrary to the theory of relativity. Even when the measurements…
Entropy in Spin Foam Models: The Statistical Calculation
J. Manuel Garcia-Islas
Recently an idea for computing the entropy of black holes in the spin foam formalism has been introduced. Particularly complete calculations for the three dimensional euclidean BTZ…
