Spin foam models with finite groups

open access: yes, 2011
Spin foam models, loop quantum gravity and group field theory are discussed as quantum gravity candidate theories and usually involve a continuous Lie group.

Comment on "Inconsistencies in Verlinde's emergent gravity" [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
In 2016, Erik Verlinde proposed a new theory of gravity called "emergent gravity" by using mathematical formulas used in the theory of elasticity. In 2017, De-Chang Dai and Dejan Stojkovic claimed to point out inconsistencies in Verlinde's emergent gravity.

A parametrix for quantum gravity? [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2016
In the 60s, DeWitt discovered that the advanced and retarded Green functions of the wave operator on metric perturbations in the de Donder gauge make it possible to define classical Poisson brackets on the space of functionals that are invariant under the action of the full diffeomorphism group of spacetime. He therefore tried to exploit this property

A study of the SYK2 model with twisted boundary conditions

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We study a version of the 2-body Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK2) model whose complex fermions exhibit twisted boundary conditions on the thermal circle. As we show, this is physically equivalent to coupling the fermions to a 1-dimensional external gauge field A(

Expectation values of coherent states for SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theories

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
This article investigates properties of semiclassical Gauge Field Theory Coherent States for general quantum gauge theories. Useful, e.g., for the canonical formulation of Lattice Gauge Theories these states are labelled by a point in the classical phase

BARRIERS IN QUANTUM GRAVITY [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
I discuss recent progress in our understanding of two barriers in quantum gravity: $c > 1$ in the case of 2d quantum gravity and $D > 2$ in the case of Euclidean Einstein-Hilbert gravity formulated in space-time dimensions $D >2$.
