Bulk entropy in loop quantum gravity [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2008
In the framework of loop quantum gravity (LQG), having quantum black holes in mind, we generalize the previous boundary state counting (gr-qc/0508085) to a full bulk state counting. After a suitable gauge fixing we are able to compute the bulk entropy of a bounded region (the "black hole") with fixed boundary.

Polytopes in all dimensional loop quantum gravity

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022
The Lasserre’s reconstruction algorithm is extended to the D-polytopes with the construction of their shape space. Thus, the areas of d-skeletons $$(1\le d\le D)$$ ( 1 ≤ d ≤ D ) can be expressed as functions of the areas and normal bi-vectors of the (D-1)

Higher dimensional Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Loop quantum cosmology(LQC) is the symmetric model of loop quantum gravity. In this paper, we generalize the structure of loop quantum cosmology to the theories with arbitrary spacetime dimensions.

Gluing polyhedra with entanglement in loop quantum gravity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2018
In a spin-network basis state, nodes of the graph describe unentangled quantum regions of space, quantum polyhedra. In this paper we show how entanglement between intertwiner degrees of freedom enforces gluing conditions for neighboring quantum polyhedra.

Adsorption and Separation by Flexible MOFs

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) present significant potential for gas storage and separation due to their structural dynamic. This review explores the rationale behind the flexible MOFs' enhanced working capacity and separation factors. It also addresses key challenges, including phase transition kinetics, crystal robustness, cycling, shaping,

Loop quantum cosmology and singularities

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Loop quantum gravity is believed to eliminate singularities such as the big bang and big crunch singularity. This belief is based on studies of so-called loop quantum cosmology which concerns symmetry-reduced models of quantum gravity. In this paper, the

No fermion doubling in quantum geometry

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2015
In loop quantum gravity the discrete nature of quantum geometry acts as a natural regulator for matter theories. Studies of quantum field theory in quantum space–times in spherical symmetry in the canonical approach have shown that the main effect of the

Does a Theory of Everything Exist?

open access: yesФилософия и космология, 2021
Since Einstein’s failure to define a Grand Unified Theory, physicists have pursued a comprehensive theory explaining nature, a Theory of Everything. But because General Relativity, Quantum Field Theory, and Cosmology have little in common, defining one ...
