Clocks and Trajectories in Quantum Cosmology
We consider a simple cosmological model consisting of an empty Bianchi I Universe, whose Hamiltonian we deparametrise to provide a natural clock variable. The model thus effectively describes an isotropic universe with an induced clock given by the shear.

Potential tests of the generalized uncertainty principle in the advanced LIGO experiment
The generalized uncertainty principle and a minimum measurable length arise in various theories of gravity and predict Planck-scale modifications of the canonical position-momentum commutation relation.

Fundamental length scale and the bending of light in a gravitational field
The canonical approach to quantizing quantum gravity is understood to suffer from pathological non-renomalizability. Nevertheless in the context of effective field theory, a viable perturbative approach to calculating elementary processes is possible ...

Hamiltonian Renormalization V: Free Vector Bosons
In a recent proposal we applied methods from constructive QFT to derive a Hamiltonian Renormalization Group in order to employ it ultimately for canonical quantum gravity.

Making the gravitational path integral more Lorentzian, or: Life beyond Liouville gravity [PDF]
In two space-time dimensions, there is a theory of Lorentzian quantum gravity which can be defined by a rigorous, non-perturbative path integral and is inequivalent to the well-known theory of (Euclidean) quantum Liouville gravity.

Canonical quantum gravity and consistent discretizations [PDF]
This is a summary of the talk presented by JP at ICGC2004. It covered some developments in canonical quantum gravity occurred since ICGC2000, emphasizing the recently introduced consistent discretizations of general relativity.Comment: 8 pages, to appear

The volume operator in covariant quantum gravity [PDF]
A covariant spin-foam formulation of quantum gravity has been recently developed, characterized by a kinematics which appears to match well the one of canonical loop quantum gravity.

An overview of canonical quantum gravity [PDF]
This is a summary of a talk delivered at the workshop ``Quantum gravity in the Southern Cone II''. We present a very brief review of current results on canonical quantization of general relativity using Ashtekar's variables and loop quantization.Comment:

Which Quantum Theory Must be Reconciled with Gravity? (And What Does it Mean for Black Holes?)
We consider the nature of quantum properties in non-relativistic quantum mechanics (QM) and relativistic quantum field theories, and examine the connection between formal quantization schemes and intuitive notions of wave-particle duality.

Cauchy slice holography: a new AdS/CFT dictionary
We investigate a new approach to holography in asymptotically AdS spacetimes, in which time rather than space is the emergent dimension. By making a sufficiently large T 2-deformation of a Euclidean CFT, we define a holographic theory that lives on ...
