Contextual extensions of quantum gravity models [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2021
We present a simple way of incorporating the structure of contextual extensions into quantum gravity models. The contextual extensions of [Formula: see text]-algebras, originally proposed for contextual hidden variables, are generalized to the cones indexed by the contexts and their limit in a category.

An outsider’s perspective on information recovery in de Sitter space

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Entanglement islands play a crucial role in our understanding of how Hawking radiation encodes information in a black hole, but their relevance in cosmological spacetimes is less clear. In this paper, we continue our investigation of information recovery

Entanglement entropy in critical phenomena and analog models of quantum gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A general geometrical structure of the entanglement entropy for spatial partition of a relativistic QFT system is established by using methods of the effective gravity action and the spectral geometry. A special attention is payed to the subleading terms

The two-sphere partition function in two-dimensional quantum gravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We study the Euclidean path integral of two-dimensional quantum gravity with positive cosmological constant coupled to conformal matter with large and positive central charge.

The price of curiosity: information recovery in de Sitter space

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Recent works have revealed that quantum extremal islands can contribute to the fine-grained entropy of black hole radiation reproducing the unitary Page curve.

Status of Background-Independent Coarse Graining in Tensor Models for Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yesUniverse, 2018
A background-independent route towards a universal continuum limit in discrete models of quantum gravity proceeds through a background-independent form of coarse graining. This review provides a pedagogical introduction to the conceptual ideas underlying

Tests of Loop Quantum Gravity from the Event Horizon Telescope Results of Sgr A* [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2022
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration’s image of the compact object at the Galactic center is the first direct evidence of the supermassive black hole (BH) Sgr A*. The shadow of Sgr A* has an angular diameter d sh = 48.7 ± 7 μas with fractional

Effective gravitational action for 2D massive fermions

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We work out the effective gravitational action for 2D massive Euclidean fermions in a small mass expansion. Besides the leading Liouville action, the order m 2 gravitational action contains a piece characteristic of the Mabuchi action, much as for 2D ...

The two-sphere partition function from timelike Liouville theory at three-loop order

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
While the Euclidean two-dimensional gravitational path integral is in general highly fluctuating, it admits a semiclassical two-sphere saddle if coupled to a matter CFT with large and positive central charge. In Weyl gauge this gravity theory is known as

Gravitational Decoherence [PDF]

open access: yes, 1938
We discuss effects of loss of coherence in low energy quantum systems caused by or related to gravitation, referred to as gravitational decoherence.
