Loop Quantum Cosmology: Recent Progress
, 2004 Aspects of the full theory of loop quantum gravity can be studied in a
simpler context by reducing to symmetric models like cosmological ones. This
leads to several applications where loop effects play a significant role when
one is sensitive to the ...A Ashtekar, A Ashtekar, A Ashtekar, A Ashtekar, A Ashtekar, A Ashtekar, A Okolow, C Rovelli, C Rovelli, C Rovelli, C Rovelli, G M Hossain, G W Gibbons, J F Barbero, J Z Simon, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, M Bojowald, Martin Bojowald, P Singh, T Thiemann, T Thiemann, V A Belinskii, V Husain +35 morecore +1 more sourceBrane-world gravity [PDF]
, 2003 The observable universe could be a 1+3-surface (the "brane") embedded in a
1+3+d-dimensional spacetime (the "bulk"), with standard-model particles and
fields trapped on the brane while gravity is free to access the bulk.Maartens, Roycore +3 more sourcesA no-singularity scenario in loop quantum gravity

, 2010 Unimodular gravity is based on a modification of the usual Einstein-Hilbert
action that allows one to recover general relativity with a dynamical
cosmological constant.A. Ashtekar, A. Ashtekar, A. Einstein, C. Rovelli, C. J. Isham, D. Marolf, Dah-Wei Chiou, M. Bojowald, Marc Geiller, P. A. M. Dirac, R. M. Wald, S. Hawking, T. Thiemann +12 morecore +3 more sourcesOn the Physical Hilbert Space of Loop Quantum Cosmology
, 2004 In this paper we present a model of Riemannian loop quantum cosmology with a
self-adjoint quantum scalar constraint. The physical Hilbert space is
constructed using refined algebraic quantization.A. Ashtekar, Abhay Ashtekar, Abhay Ashtekar, Alejandro Perez, C. Rovelli, C. Rovelli, Karim Noui, Kevin Vandersloot, L. Smolin, Martin Bojowald +9 morecore +1 more sourceOn Higher Order Gravities, Their Analogy to GR, and Dimensional
