Linking covariant and canonical LQG II: spin foam projector
In a seminal paper, Kaminski et al for the first time extended the definition of spin foam models to arbitrary boundary graphs. This is a prerequisite in order to make contact to the canonical…

Emergent four-dimensional linearized gravity from a spin foam model
Spin Foam Models (SFMs) are covariant formulations of Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) in 4 dimensions. This work studies the perturbations of SFMs on a flat background. It demonstrates for the first time…

On the relation between reduced quantisation and quantum reduction for spherical symmetry in loop quantum gravity
Building on a recent proposal for a quantum reduction to spherical symmetry from full loop quantum gravity, we investigate the relation between a quantisation of spherically symmetric general…

Lorentzian proper vertex amplitude: Classical analysis and quantum derivation
Spin foam models, an approach to defining the dynamics of loop quantum gravity, make use of the Plebanski formulation of gravity, in which gravity is recovered from a topological field theory via…

Linking covariant and canonical loop quantum gravity: New solutions to the Euclidean scalar constraint
It is often emphasized that spin-foam models could realize a projection on the physical Hilbert space of canonical Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG). As a first test we analyze the one-vertex expansion of a…

Matrix elements of Lorentzian Hamiltonian constraint in loop quantum gravity
The Hamiltonian constraint is the key element of the canonical formulation of LQG coding its dynamics. In Ashtekar-Barbero variables it naturally splits into the so called Euclidean and Lorentzian…

Lorentzian proper vertex amplitude: Asymptotics
In previous work, the Lorentzian proper vertex amplitude for a spin-foam model of quantum gravity was derived. In the present work, the asymptotics of this amplitude are studied in the semi-classical…

Stable coherent states
We analyze the stability under time evolution of complexifier coherent states (CCS) in one-dimensional mechanical systems. A system of coherent states is called stable if it evolves into another…

Spin foam propagator: A new perspective to include the cosmological constant
In recent years, the calculation of the first non-vanishing order of the metric 2-point function or graviton propagator in a semiclassical limit has evolved as a standard test for the credibility of…

On the relation of canonical and covariant formulations of Loop Quantum Gravity
Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) is a background independent approach towards a quantum theory of gravity that splits into a canonical and a covariant branch the latter of which is also often called spin…
