Complexifier Coherent States for Quantum General Relativity [PDF]
Recently, substantial amount of activity in Quantum General Relativity (QGR) has focussed on the semiclassical analysis of the theory. In this paper we want to comment on two such developments: 1) Polymer-like states for Maxwell theory and linearized ...

Deformed General Relativity and Quantum Black Holes Interior [PDF]
Effective models of black holes interior have led to several proposals for regular black holes. In the so-called polymer models, based on effective deformations of the phase space of spherically symmetric general relativity in vacuum, one considers a ...

Holographic formulation of quantum general relativity [PDF]
The Lorentzian boundary conditions have been extended to a much more general class, more details given of quantization in the Lorentzian ...

On Locality in Quantum General Relativity and Quantum Gravity [PDF]
The physical concept of locality is first analyzed in the special relativistic quantum regime, and compared with that of microcausality and the local commutativity of quantum fields. Its extrapolation to quantum general relativity on quantum bundles over

Constraints on Gravitation from Causality and Quantum Consistency
We examine the role of consistency with causality and quantum mechanics in determining the properties of gravitation. We begin by examining two different classes of interacting theories of massless spin 2 particles—gravitons.

Quantum information and general relativity [PDF]
The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox (1935) is reexamined in the light of Shannon's information theory (1948). The EPR argument did not take into account that the observers' information was localized, like any other physical object.

Quantum general relativity and Hawking radiation [PDF]
In a previous paper we have set up the Wheeler-DeWitt equation which describes the quantum general relativistic collapse of a spherical dust cloud. In the present paper we specialize this equation to the case of matter perturbations around a black hole ...
