一般Lorentzian 4-几何的自旋泡沫模型

A spin foam model for general Lorentzian 4-geometries

Florian Conrady, Jeff Hnybida

摘要:

我们推导出一般洛伦兹4-几何量子化的简单性约束。我们的方法是基于相干态和经典双矢量之间的对应关系和相关的不确定性最小化。对于类空几何,该方案与Engle,Pereira,Rovelli和Livine(EPRL)模型的主约束方法一致。当它被应用到一般的洛伦兹几何,我们得到新的约束,包括EPRL约束作为一个特殊情况。它们意味着类空和类时表面都有一个离散的面积谱。我们使用这些约束来定义一般洛伦兹4-几何的自旋泡沫模型。

英文摘要:

We derive simplicity constraints for the quantization of general Lorentzian 4-geometries. Our method is based on the correspondence between coherent states and classical bivectors and the minimization of associated uncertainties. For spacelike geometries, this scheme agrees with the master constraint method of the model by Engle, Pereira, Rovelli and Livine (EPRL). When it is applied to general Lorentzian geometries, we obtain new constraints that include the EPRL constraints as a special case. They imply a discrete area spectrum for both spacelike and timelike surfaces. We use these constraints to define a spin foam model for general Lorentzian 4-geometries.
