Inequivalence of mimetic gravity with models of loop quantum gravity
Certain versions of mimetic gravity have recently been claimed to present potential covariant theories of canonically modified spherically symmetric gravity, motivated by ingredients from loop quantum gravity. If such an equivalence were to hold, it would demonstrate general covariance of a large class of models considered in loop quantum gravity ...

Quantum exponentials for the modular double and applications in gravity models
In this note, we propose a decomposition of the quantum matrix group SL q + $$ {\textrm{SL}}_q^{+} $$ (2, ℝ) as (deformed) exponentiation of the quantum algebra generators of Faddeev’s modular double of U q ( sl $$ \mathfrak{sl} $$ (2, ℝ)).

Black-Hole Models in Loop Quantum Gravity [PDF]
Dynamical black-hole scenarios have been developed in loop quantum gravity in various ways, combining results from mini and midisuperspace models. In the past, the underlying geometry of space-time has often been expressed in terms of line elements with metric components that differ from the classical solutions of general relativity, motivated by ...

Lorentzian quantum gravity via Pachner moves: one-loop evaluation
Lorentzian quantum gravity is believed to cure the pathologies encountered in Euclidean quantum gravity, such as the conformal factor problem. We show that this is the case for the Lorentzian Regge path integral expanded around a flat background.

Combinatorial quantum gravity is governed by a discrete Einstein-Hilbert action formulated on an ensemble of random graphs. There is strong evidence for a second-order quantum phase transition separating a random phase at strong coupling from an ordered,

Solvable model for quantum gravity? [PDF]
We study a type of geometric theory with a non-dynamical one-form field. Its dynamical variables are an $su(2)$ gauge field and a triad of $su(2)$ valued one-forms. Hamiltonian decomposition reveals that the theory has a true Hamiltonian, together with spatial diffeomorphism and Gauss law constraints, which generate the only local symmetries.

Effective de Sitter space, quantum behaviour and large-scale spectral dimension (3+1)
De Sitter space-time, essentially our own universe, is plagued by problems at the quantum level. Here we propose that Lorentzian de Sitter space-time is not fundamental but constitutes only an effective description of a more fundamental quantum gravity ...

Quantum gravity inspired nonlocal gravity model [PDF]
We consider a nonlocal gravity model motivated by nonperturbative Quantum Gravity studies. This model, if correct, suggests the existence of strong IR relevant effects which can lead to an interesting late time cosmology. We implement the IR modification directly in the effective action.

From quantum groups to Liouville and dilaton quantum gravity
We investigate the underlying quantum group symmetry of 2d Liouville and dilaton gravity models, both consolidating known results and extending them to the cases with N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetry.
